    DRIVING:
    Few thousand kilometers

    Exterior Rear exteriors are boring, lights have a good coverage, super super solid body. I was driving my car at 140 or so...and suddenly hit a plastic road baricade filled with water. Car did not lose its control at all, the bonutte was slightly dented and the bumper cracked. Thats it. Had it been any other car like a swif or an i20, the bonutte would for sure have folded.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Not so stylish but good quality of material used. Gear box never gave me a problem, have driven 1.5lac KM. Still the dashboard is the way it was. the doors, dashboard, stearing, seats are still not shaky or noisy. Again, my swift diesel has been shaky since i have done 20k KM.

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Gear box=super smooth. Engine= no probs whatsoever till now. AC has given me troubles many times and the company never actually supported the issue.

    Ride Quality & Handling Superb superb quality, probably the best for an under 10 lac car. drive it at 140 or 150 you will b always confident and in full control. Effortlessly. @ 140 u feel that u r driving at 80 except the noise. The cabin is sound proof. u dont get to hear the traffic horns at all, the only sound u hear is music + engine noise.

    Final Words If you dont minde spending 20-30% extra on spares, dont mind 20% cut in the resail and cant comromise on quality. This is the car in this segment. I own swift diesel, verna diesel, and honestly i hate these makes since i bought skoda. German Whisky vs Desi tharra lol.

    Areas of improvement After sale service and spare costs!!

    Solid built, very comfortable, long life of parts, decent fuel economy, very sturdy at any speednoisy engine, after sale service- very disappointing, super expensive spares, old looks
