mid compact segment redefined !!! the luxuries & power of big cars now in compact cars. the new I-10

with I-10, evrythg's improved, the interiors r in class of big sedans, the new power steering & gear transmissn are just a little behind the honda's & corolla's. the car is spacious enf  for 5 person to sit comfortably evn whn the front seats r fully stretched back. the new engine is very smooth & noiseless. the ERA model has cost me 4,17,191 on road in ahmedabad. i got a loan for 3 lakhs for 3 yrs with 36 EMI of 9480 from HDFC being a preferred customer & an additional discount of 2000 for bookg thru them. i took 32% premium discount in insurance & 1500 voluntary discount for letting go claims below rs 5000. tht way the car cost me 4.59 lakhs with interest, process fees, insurace & RTO, without any accessories.

its premature to say abt mileage, coz the true mileage is chkd only aftr the first service, but i drove approx 265 kms in 21 litres of petrol with ac on, which works out to 12.5/ltr, considering highly congusted ahmedabad city driving & driving around by many members of the family. my santro gives me 11.5 in similar conditions. but ths car has tubeless tyres, new engine & after 1st service, i expect ths mileage to pick upto 14 somethg..hyundai has said its mileage is apprx 2 kms more than santro.

i hv covered most parts of my experience to give a indepth review. i m sure it will b very helpfull to everybody
