Final Words
i test drove both verna fluidic and ford fiesta. as far as drive is concerned both were same but still there is a big question mark on korean made engine performance in long run as many people still dont beleive in korean make and this thinking is same everywhere in india from north to south which force me to to rethink over hyundai becouse there is no smoke without fire.
verna fluidic is studded with features which ford fiesta has not included. again the pricing of ford is higher than verna. rear space is less but i have not compared with verna so i cant tell. the biggest disappointment about verna is its looks. although ford fiesta nad verna has fuidic design but ford definitly looks better than verna and the rear view is bad in case of verna.
the biggest advantage with verna is its features and less pricing. small kids whose legs dont reaches to clutch cant start the car as u have to start the car by pressing the clutches. u cant accidently put the reverse gear as u have to pull a switch in the gear handle to apply reverse gear. further verna offers 6 airbags in topline along with parking sensor and a camera which is realy helpful. good powerfull 1.6 engine , nice pickup, the car just runs with the word go. adjustable lights and mirrors which are all electronically controlled. AC fitted to the dashboard box inorder to keep ur chocolates and icecream cool. disadvantages with verna are: very hard rear view mirror which is difficult to adjust, no voice or cruise control contrary to ford fiesta, bad rear view and despite the fuidic design ford is better and elegant looking car.
