Exterior
Nice enough to look at.A lay man guesses the price at 15 odd lacs,thanks to the size of the car.An ego booster!
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
Feature laden,no other car is giving as many features for the price,space wise its more than you can ask for,I wish it had a little more of elbow space.Its a very comfortable car with not very low seats,a very light steering.It does'nt give much feel but is still better than the petrol.The suspension is a bit noisy and cannot filter sharp bumps,but gets much better as the speed rises.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
The performance is more than you can ask for with a very strong midrange.You can virtually just press the accelerator and the car takes off without any judder,nomatter what gear you are in.Fuel economy wise it is fabulous.I get an economy of 30kmpl(At 70-80kmph)on the highway.Giving me an overall mileage of about 24-25kpl.The car being so light pays its dividends here.
Ride Quality & Handling
The ride quality is par for the course,gets better as the speeds rise.At low speeds,sharp bumps can filter through,also the suspension is not as quiet as one would want.Handling is safe but nothing to write home about.Well its a family car and if you want to be a boy racer, you would be getter off buying the Fiesta.The ground clearance too is quite high and nothing to bother about.
Final Words
I am impressed with the car's capabilities, its price to features factor,the size, as well as the handling of the dealer.Although its only been 20 days since I've bought the car,so will reserve the right to comment on after sales for later on and keep you guys posted on that front.
Areas of improvement
Improve the gearbox feel. Make the suspension more European car like in nature.Its a typical Jap car,light and tinny in feel but efficient nonetheless.
Fuel economy,space,featuresNotchy gearbox,flimsy build,jiggly ride.
