செவ்ரோலெ பீட் [2009-2011] யூசர் ரிவ்யுஸ்

Exterior

 100% head turner, I got attention everywhere. People asked me whether this is performance sports car?

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Here you really feel like sports car cockpit. interiors are fresh and feels like sedan car

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 good but sometime feels noisy. vehicle has less of pickup in 2nd gear well thats only problem i am facing. it has good fuel economy. I got 17.12 kmpl with AC on highway and 14.73 kmpl in city.

Ride Quality & Handling

its very good. steering is very well weighted. it deals nicely with potholes and bad roads.

Final Words

 this is lowest in price among the 1.2 ltr engines so one should not expect all the features at best in segment. this vehicle fulfills my dream of buying powerfull, stylish yet affordable car. thanks to chevy promise of 3 year warranty

Areas of improvement  

 2nd gear pick up. boot space

Exterior

 If Only Looks mattered Beat LT is a killer.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Console is beautifully placed and styled but the plastic quality is bad. Rear seat space is less if compared to i10. Also u get a suffocating feeling in the back seat due to black plastic next to the rear windows.

Front seating is very good. The digital screen given looks gud in nite but dont know whether the extreme heat in india it would be able to handle.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Not peppy at all. Going from 2nd to 3rd even after giving race u dont feel car is picking up. big area of improvement in this. gearbox is nice but in i10 its more smooth and nicely placed.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Was nice but there was a noise which was coming from the bottom of the car which on asked to the dealer guy didnt have any clue.

Final Words

 Looks only dont kill.....consider other options too.

Areas of improvement  

Exterior Beat is the best car in the segment as far as the looks go. There is no other car which can match its style and beauty.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The legroom and interiors are reasonably good and comfortable. The seats are slightly uncomfort for long runs exceeding 400 kms. The boot space is pretty less so cannot carry a heavy luggage on tours.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The engine performance and fuel economy is good. The AC works well and ensures smoothness of vehicle.

Ride Quality & Handling A good city and highway car. I have driven it at speeds of 140-150 and found it to be stable at those speeds.

Final Words For all those who have not tried GM brand. Go for it!!! Its good value for family car.

Areas of improvement Suspension needs to better. Need to introduce other variants in diesel and LPG.

Rear Axle bent at just 10,800 kilometers run!

Reason Unknown.

Covered under Warrenty? No, dont know why and no justification.

Solution The chevrolet guys arent bothered about it.

Complaint Lodged: Yes lodged 2 weeks back but still no response or progress. Complaint NUmber 27295

Next Step Consumer Court????? Pls advice.

If chevrolet guys are reading this pls do call me on 9869157533 and show some responsibility towards after sales service you dumbs.

If any of the users can provide me with email or phone contacts of chevrolet higher officials, i would highly appreciate their help. Pls email me on yogesh.sodah@gmail.com.

I have been calling the customer service everyday to ask for the update, but these fellows just give me one same reply every day that the issue has been escalted but dont know the truth yet.

This car is bought from Nikhil Automobiles Navi Mumbai! Nikhil guys have just raised their hands off the issue saying the customer has banged th car in pothole, how foolish is that? How can someone bang a new car which is almost new.

My dear Prospects pls dont buy chevrolet cars, you will cry at the end!!!!!

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) I purchased a 'beat'(mh03aw878) in march with high hopes for the automatic climate control.
All my hopes were dashed when I actually used it. Its very obvious that is was lifted straight from some european/american model and fitted here. It seems nobody bothered to test / use it in indian conditions and modify it accordingly.
Every time I start it, it starts taking in 'OXYGEN' and I end up smelling foul stench from the garbage truck ahead of me or smelling Carbon mono oxide from the truck beside me.
And if I dont use the 'AUTO' feature I end up setting the controls like any other 'NON AUTO' system.
Why does it have to look at the sun outside and then cool down? I want 22deg.C and thats it. The sun outside is irrelevant to the occupant's desired temperature inside.
Does the sunlight viewer take into account the sun control film installed on the windshield?

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The fuel economy is not more than 14kmpl in my car on highways. In city conditions it is around 11. I wonder who is getting 19? Or is it just my car not functioning properly?

Areas of improvement The dealers need to train their employees. specifically SC auto in thane. They dont know the complete car until now.

Exterior Beat 1.2 LT is having the best look of all the cars in the segment.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Best suited for city as well as long journeys. Good Leg space for Driver with tiltable stearing and adjustable seats and very cute interiors and quality of music system is awesome. Features loke auto ac makes it a best buy. The best part of the beat is the passengers leg space which i bet more than any other car in the segment.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is totally noise free at even 120-150 kmph.  Mileage is good and 5 spd gearbox is very smooth.

Ride Quality & Handling Very comfortable and pocket friendly car. Suitable for city rides as well as long rides. The breaks are very powerful and car can be halted fom 120kmph in shortest distance. Acceleration is smooth (ideal for city traffic jams) and vehicle will not jump on pressing the accelerator which makes it ideal even for ladies.

Final Words It is THE BEST CAR in the segment with all the features of higher end vehicles at a cheaper price.

Exterior From the outside, car looks stunning as if it is a small demon on the roads... The sporty look given from the front gives a look of chevrolet cruze... The tail also looks superb.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Cant really comment on the performance as of now as its just been a month that i bought this car... Fuel economy as of now is around 10 which should improve after the 1st service..Gearbox is smooth...

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is smooth and handling is also good... Actually it is effortless.

Final Words A great value for money car that delivers more than what any other car can offer in this segment... I've bought the top model and for just 4.5 lacs, its a steal.

Areas of improvement OVRM's should be electronic, audio controls should have been on the steering..if these things can further be added, it would further be a positive...also the abs and a couple of otehr features in the optional variant should also be provided in the top model(LT) as the optional variant has been closed now.

Exterior At first look is more dazzing than any other hatch,colors are good,i think rear look should be more attractive,lights are great,tubeless tyres give more cofident in remote roads,door handles are new idea.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) If someone is hesitating to go for this car from outside, i must advice to him get inside this car,he just can't resist him. Wow,what a look! Controle panel is great,dashbord,plastic quality are in great shape. interior design is also nice!

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Absolutely noiseless engine with great fuel economy and smart gear controll! Some times i forget to turn off the engine as there is no sound in engine!

Ride Quality & Handling A great comfortable ride with less jarking in rough road with smooth handling!

Final Words It's a true value for money hatchback in indian market.

Areas of improvement Rear look, Rear boot space, Should little more spacious, Music speaker quality, More number of service centre at least in Bardwan.
