    Exterior

     From the front side, the car looks awesome but from the side-view it looks chopped. Looks are subjective but i like the overall exteriors. The Swept-back headlights, turn indicators on ORVMs are really good.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

     The black and beige combination of interiors give the car a kind of luxurious feel. MID has got lot of features like Distance to Empty, Real-time mileage Indicator etc. The Built-in ICE is good. 

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

     Fiat 1.3 L 75 Bhp engine is a proven super-star. Turbo-lag upto 1800 rpm is irritating though. Once after the 1800 rpm, the turbo kicks in and you get lot of power. Mileage is awesome. I get 22 KMPL even before the completion of second service. 

    To Achieve this mileage, try to accelerate properly, maintain a constant speed. Keep an eye on the mileage indicator and it will teach us how to drive this beauty. If the mileage indicator shows between 25-30 KMPL most of the time, you are sure to extract 22+ KMPL in real-time.

    Ride Quality & Handling

     Perfectly weighted steering makes handling comfortable. Rear-Suspension is a bit on the softer side, so there is slight body-roll but with roads with Potholes, it comes as a blessing in disguise.

    The car is stable at 110 km/hr. The straight line stability is very good.

    Final Words

     Though, everyone feels the car is slightly over-priced, this beauty is an enthusiasts dream. Just go for it!!

    Areas of improvement  

     

    Rear leg-room needs to be improved. Boot size should atleast be 400 litres for a sedan.
