    DRIVING:
    Its my mate since ages

    Exterior Ok.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Cramped, en-ergonomic.

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Performance reasonable, fuel economy is just out of the question --- costs almost same as petrol as batter needs replacement -- at least 2/3 components ( electric fuse, ems/ etc) keep failing due to no fault of owner -- I had failed EMS due to :"water seepage" now how the hell does this happen? Bad design, as I am using SANTRO automatic since 2010 to date -- never had such issues.

    We should go for Nano/ any other car with petrol cum CNG fitting :  works out much cheaper than REVAi car anyday.

    Ride Quality & Handling Although brake is hydraulic -its fair. Steering is good. although eletric/power steeing would have helped. REVAI glass windows are terribe -- without AC you have a really bad time driving! Suspension -- seems almost non existent: is too harsh on the passengers.

    Final Words NA.

    Areas of improvement ALL: please avoid marketing smooth talk to hide actual cost of this - Try to provide reasonable cost spares/quality spares: Try to design better chassis - at least matching other cars. Promised Lithium Ion battery upgrade to REVA older models -- never happened.

    Good promise of fuel economy, reasonable battery pricesfuel economy is killed by the battery replacement costs, non standard parts cost
