शेवरले बीट [2009-2011]

Car is ok. If you do not use it many repairs will come. Servicing stations are very far and hard to find. Regular servicing is required annually and if mileage is low. Overall good features and the car is excellent. Do wheel alignment every 1000 km or 6 months.

Car is very good for city driving, it's giving me quite a good mileage car also looks styles and car have a good and powerful engine but gears are quite hard but it may be due to the car is the old overall car is very good I wish GM start selling cars again in India.

Exterior Good, but the worst part is its Ground Clearence. Very low space not made for Indian roads. Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Deskbord is very sexy and cozy. Leg space is good. Boot space is poor. Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is worst. In just 49000km I have made work of Engine. and it costs approx 1 lacs. Ride Quality & Handling On long ride after few hours car not taking load specially on inclenation.  Final Words Although I love to drive it bcoz its my first car. No doubt its very cheap Diesel car in its segments. Also the average is good but still I am not very much happy to own it right now. Resons are mention below... Services are very costly workshops are very expensive. assesories are not easyly available out side. Worst experiance of Service centres. Thats why I made the services from out side. I will suggest any one to purchase it as I was not comfortable with such expenses in just under 5 years and 50000 kms. Areas of improvement   Many things to be improved. Very first improve the coustmer care services. Second Make the small car easy and coustmer friendly. Accesories shoul be more economical. Ground clearence should according to indian roads.   Good fuel economy but only in new variants, Good interior specially the deskbord.demanding work of Engine in 0nly 49000 KM. WTF it is? Service centres are very irresponsible.

Exterior The car looks fabulous from outside, if not the best car in its segment in terms of looks. Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior looks classy, especially its green back-lit digital console and sound system. There can't be any complaint on comfort too and the cabin too is silent as sound of the engine doesn't reach. With auto-climate control, this is perhaps the only car in its segment to offer such comforts. Interiors have been perfectly mated to its sleek and sporty looks of outside. Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Fuel economy is very good -- delivering a decent mileage of around 20 kmpl in city driving and 25 in highways (22 kmpl average). Gearbox too is smooth, though with 3-cylinder and 936 cc engine one gets to feel the lack of power while trying to rev up the car with the AC on. Ride Quality & Handling There can't be two opinions in ride quality too and it handles potholes fairly well. Have driven it at 130 kmph too and there was no problem in handling at great speed Final Words The car's perhaps worst enemy is within under its bonnet. Despite its looks and feature-laden interiors, its engine is its biggest undoing as its very troublesome. Having driven 34,000 km in two years, the car's been a big headache as I've had to frequent servicing centres every two months on an average with one or the other problems. Consider these: during the last two years its high pressure pump had been replaced twice, oil separator replaced twice, turbo replaced once and now piston rings are set to be replaced due to low compression. And each time the car enters the servicing centre for a major problem, it's not before at least 7/8 days that it's delivered. Have heard similar complaints from other Beat LT Diesel owners too. The car leaves the impression that its engine is of very inferior quality.  Areas of improvement Engine needs to be drastically improved if it really want to be a runaway success. While the feature-laden car is cool, its engine is a big let-down. With its troublesome diesel engine, many would very well prefer its competitors like Ford Figo or Maruti Swift, not to talk of Hyunday Grand I10 and Toyota Etios Liva.Good fuel economy, good styleTroublesome engine
