Quite a good Car

 

Exterior Exterior is quite Good. Though certain improvements would beef up the appearance.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) About the interior there is nothing to raise serious complaint.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine Performance is Good until now but appears to be on the borderline. All would depend on how the car would behave after 3 years. The fuel economy is Average. The makers are aware of it and therefore an effort to appearent improvement is made by adding AC milage in the actual milafe is made. Gearbox appears to be very Poor. I have already complained about the hard gear shit for first 10 minutes on starting a car at rest for more that four hours. No response is received.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Ride Quality & Handling is Good until now but have to see the same until first three years.

 

Final Words I find the guarantee excludes almost everything, under the pretext of normal wear and tear. While I was in the W/s for service one customer was there with a complaint of clutch. His car was 3 months old and must have run over the first monsoon in Mumbai. In fact the ditches are there on the raod in every rain, in this rainy season though, it got a wider adverse publicity. To my surprise the customer was charged for Rs 22k for the repair, which in my opinion was certainly a guarantee repair to be available for free. If this be the approach, I think I must flogg off my car before my clutch gives way.
