Best sedan under 12 lakhs

Exterior

 No doubt its a eye catcher whether displayed inside a showroom or on a busy traffic and it makes everyone to give a second glimpse before moving on . Projector light is an added attration which gives rich styling to the sedan .Front Grille is decent and simple and I loved the way tail lights are designed and the best part is 18 spoke Gun metal alloy wheels which is so premium and upmarket and no sedans can match .

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Once you step in you are greeted with luxurious interiors which is really impressive .Leather seats are crafted with gentle care and perfection. 7 inch Infotainment is a great piece of art and it fits in well positioned dashboard rack . And there's lots of storage place  which can fit in your mobile phones ,water bottles etc and they are very handy you need not struggle to grab them. Rear passengers enjoy a cheffuer driven exprinece thanks to plenty of legroom .

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Once I hit Start button the real enjoyment starts,engine is tuned to such a perfection and its so silent  that you have see tachomeer to confirm ignition. I had some problem shifting between first and reverse gears but I felt its common among any new cars . Gear shifts are very smooth especially while travelling in a closed traffic and with my regular use and with my driving style I am getting a mileage about 13.5 KMPL with all time AC on and I felt this is much better my friends Brio .

Ride Quality & Handling

 Took my car on highways over weekend and I don't say it's a super charged car but the performance of a 1.4 litre engine churning out 90 PS of power was really impressive and satisfactory.I could easily touch 120 kmph in less time and car was bound to go further and you could feel engine refinement very well here with no engine noise . Steering respone at high speeds are very responsive and it gives you confidence of driving at very high speeds.

Final Words

 At last I say its the master crafted piece under 12 lakhs and you will never regret your purchase.
