    Exterior Great.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Lots of features, lots of space and comfort.

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The engine is not very refined, fuel economy is much less in city comditions(9 kmpl) then what the company claims. the gear box is a major problem. My car has only 4000 kms on it and i had to change the entire gear box recently.

    Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is not very good specially on bad roads, u can literally feel each and every bumps and even the minor potholes.

    Final Words Its cheap compared to other SUV's in the market and a very tempting buy because of its looks, features and road presence, but dont fall for that trap, its a very bad quality product.

    Areas of improvement I would suggest the company to cut cost on some of the features like tyre pressure monitoring and the touch screen display as they dont even work that well, and spend some more mony on improving the  engine refinement, suspentions, gearbox and the overall quality of the vehicle.

    looks and interior spaceEvery thing else
