4.0 Exterior | 4.0 Comfort | 4.0 Performance |
2.0 Fuel Economy | 3.0 Value for Money |
Exterior The exteriors along with the projected head lights give this car a masculine look and feels a big car. The indicators on the mirrors also look cute.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) 5 people can comfortably travel in the car and the leg room is also decent for passengers. You may have to stretch a bit to accesss the music system controls.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox I have driven about 4500 KM till now and have no problem with the engine and it is quite silent! However there is a noteciable drop in power with a/c on in 3rd, 4th gear. Gear shift is smooth and the position is ergonomic. I am getting a mileage of about 13KM in city and 18KM on high ways. I was expecting a better mileage inside the city with the new Kappa2 engine.
Ride Quality & Handling I have driven about 1000 KM on the highways and the ride quality is fantastic and it is easy to maneuvre the car.
Final Words All in all, a great hatch to buy. Only concern is the raising petrol prices!
Areas of improvement A/C fan noise can be lowered.
Good exteriors and interiors, Seating comfort, Power steeringnothing really. Would have liked a better fuel economy with Kappa2 engine
