Okay choice

Driving experience was not up to mark as we compared with Tata Tiago, Maruti and other entry-level car. Internal space was very good however build quality is not up to mark and not safe car for highway drive

Honda Brio SMT

<p>Hello friends,&nbsp;</p> <p>I know buying a car can be a daunting task specially when you have so many options.</p> <p>I own this car since Nov 2012, and simply love it. Have driven about 23k km on it, with long (as long as 440kms at a stretch) and short hauls(typical city driving) included.</p> <p><strong>Exterior</strong> I am sure everybody has there own preferences when it comes to exterior so I won't elaborate too much on it. Personally I feel its pleasant looking car.</p> <p><strong>Interior (Features, Space &amp; Comfort)</strong> The model I own comes with dual interiors, beige and creme I think. Although the vehicle looks small from outside, but has massive amounts of space inside. Leg room is good enough for a guy like me who is 5'9" and so is the boot space.</p> <p>It came with a built in stereo system, I don't know the make but the sound quality is amazing.</p> <p><strong>Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox</strong> Powered by 1.2lt engine it gives a smooth ride irrespective of terrain. I have driven this vehicle extensively on mountainous region. When it was me, my wife and my 1 yr old kid, I had no issues getting through the uphill on 2nd and 3rd gear, mostly 3rd. When we went to ooty in march this year, we were 4 adults and 1 kid and we went uphill mostly on 2nd gear at times 3rd or 1st. In my opinion engine performance is a thumbs up on all fronts.</p> <p>In a city like bangalore where traffic jams are rampant I get a mileage of 13.5-14 km/lt in city, however on highway I have been able to achieve 17.5-18.5km/lt.</p> <p>The gear box is smooth and crisp. I am glad I did not pick up the automatic version.</p> <p><strong>Ride Quality &amp; Handling</strong> The ride quality is flawless, I would Like to mention, as you attain higher speed, the more it sticks and move.</p> <p>If you turn the AC on while driving, u don't feel the jerk or lag which you would normally feel in any other vehicle.</p> <p><strong>Final Words</strong> Great value for money, Honda has the best technology when it comes to petrol. Low maintenance, I have shelled out only 7k in last 2 yrs., which is pretty low when compared to cars my friends own. Its a thumbs up all the way.</p> <p><strong>Areas of improvement</strong> Rear glass wiper is a must.</p>Handling, leg room, fuel efficiency, styling, drive qualityNo rear glass wiper, Manual OVRM
