Discomfortride

Exterior New and fresh looks are GOOD and make us feel Kwid is stylish car almost like a mini SUV.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) More passenger room, more elbow room etc. Steering wheel, horn switch location are very comfortable. Inierior plastics and trims are just so , so. Mudd and dust accumulates below the door bottom and body floor.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox HIGH ENGINE NOISE, Kicking of gear lever felt during gear shifting. Fuel kmpl is about 14.5 and is still under observation. Engine pinking noise while moving off at slow engine speeds compels the driver to rev up the engine more than what is required for moving off in 1st gear.

Ride Quality & Handling Suspension is really good and gentle but  POOR RIDE QUALITY DUE TO JERKING, KICKING AND GALLOPING EFFETCS, FEAR OF ACCIDENTS WHILE MOVING CLOSELY DURING TRAFFIC JAMS make the passengers feel uncomfortable, unsafe. Otherwise handling is very easy due to its high ground clearence, soft pedals, soft steering etc.

Final Words If this jerk problem is resolved, Instrument Cluster issues are addressed Kwid will be superb in its class.

Areas of improvement Engine noise reduction, removal of defects viz. jerking and kicking effects, Instrument Cluster quality, reliability etc.

Exterior look, ground clearence, soft pedal controls, easy monouverability.JERKY RIDE WITH KICKING AND GALLOPING EFFECTS MAKE CAR TRAVEL UNCOMFORTABLE. AT TIMES CREATES A FEAR
