    Exterior The best part of Nisaan Terrano is it's exteriors where I decided to pay 1.23 L extra over a Renault Dustor. Car looks bold & stylish from outside though there is not much difference from DUSTOR. 

    I truly loved exteriors of the CAR ( not Suv) & Pucrahed Nissan XVD 110 PSI (Top Model) by paying 13 Lacs ... just on looks( Biggest mistake of my life).

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interiors are  poor & basic finish of the plastic used on wiper control / light control is missing. Touch n feel of the car from inside is of any first level Alto / Eon ( any other 2.5 L worth Car) which you will idenify once you use the car for some time & get familiar with all components.

    Dashboard quality is nice  however you may find Renault printed parts inside the car. Stereo quality is poor & assmbling will start making a churning sound when riding on even slightly bumpy roads within 2-3 months. 

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance is good though the feel is of a JEEP, Mahindra classic, Gear box is not smooth. Within 3 months of purachse my car started giving noise from Brakes, Drums, Doors, & Interior setup / Dashboard. 

    Ride Quality & Handling Ride Quality is poor due to unconfortable seats & lack of basic 10 Lac plus CAR features  like Audio controls on Steering wheel, Reverse parking video Camera , sensor view( I bought a top model 100 PSI Nissan), Hand brakes are just too average & can't hold your vehicle on a steep. Car ( not a SUV) will make noise from all directions within 2 -3 months even if you are a experienced driver like me ( I drove 3 cars Inlcuding Honda City & Swift each 1 L plus in last 6 years).

    I might be the unlucky one however on my trip to agra I saw one error light showing in display panel, which when explained to Nissan they confirmed it to be wiring malfunction.

    Final Words A car (not SUV) with excellent exteriors to Stand out in crowd & poor parts & assembling quality. YOu will not find the finish you expect from a Japanese giant like Nisssan. The same car in Australia is amazing & completely different from what they are seliing in India.

    Not a sensible buy at all especially in abense of after sales service by Nissan. You keep writing to nissan & would never hear from them at all ( I bet). You will completely on mercy of local dealers where luckily i found one good dealer in Faridabad & ever since able to justify my purchase. Delhi dealers would be truly a pianful experience. 

    Areas of improvement Assembling quality, Interioir quality & features, One complete Product check before handing over the Car.

    Don't give Renault printed parts in the CAR (it's Shameful).
