Surpasses my expectation

This is about Punto Evo 1.2L Active

Exterior It has good the best looks in the segment. Period. Some might differ to my opinion and say i20 has the best design. I would say look at the back of i20 its un-original.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The features are good. I really like the speed limiter which is of very use nowadays.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is very refined and its almost silent from 3rd gear onwards. I am getting around 15-16 on highways after initial 100km ride(it was 13 initially) and 10-13 in cities. This is excellent considering the AC was on 80 perc of the time and was at 2nd position. Though the gearbox feels rubbery and can make you feel like you might have put it in the wrong position(you might have, thats your problem not the car's) . But that all gonna happens only in the initial 100km ride or till the time you get the feel of the vehicle. Once you get that that it is the easiest gearbox slot gears into coz gears has less travelling time from the neutral position. And I felt this vehicle is easier to shift gears in comparison to the wagonR 1.0 my dad has. 

Ride Quality & Handling You might have already know that this is the best in class. And I can vouch for that. A 4.5 hr straight journey with just 2 stops with maximum five min rest and I still feel I can ride more. The driving is a pleasure in this vehicle. The steering feedback along with the fabulous suspension makes  the ride such a pleasure job.

Final Words You might feel this vehicle a bit underpowered if you are used to marutis. The pulling power on higher gears is something of a worry for me. Even then all other factors make up for that. I would strongly recommend this vehcile if you dont have money to buy the multijet.

Areas of improvement Need to improve the power.

Excellent style, Decent fuel consumption, Amazing ride quality, excellent steering feedbackLess Pulling at higher gears, feels sluggish at times comparing the competition.
