My First Car- Beat LS TCDI

Exterior Exterior is quite eye catching for me, but the lack of spoiler makes it look smaller than the LT version. Tinted glass as promised were not really tinted as I found out. Mine is a Sandrift Grey and I find it better than the other colours.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) As I am mostly driving this car i find driving is quite comfortable, seats are good( may have been little higher) but no complaints as tall guy abt 6.1, but for smaller guys blind spot would be more. Back Seats leg room is adequate. LS dont come with a Stereo, I guess that is good as you can fit in your own choice stereo with Bluetooth (which is not in the LT). Dash board is quite spoorty but a option of regular fitted Dials would have been better. Steering Wheel does come with the Silver finishing and looks good. Glove Box is small but the car has lots of small spaces for Bottles, wafers, mobile etc.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Well engine does not feel like a 1 ltr diesel, you can find power instantly once you reach 1750 RPM, if you are going below this rev it may feel bit sluggish. The Turbo Charger and the Peak torque of 150 NM does its job quite well. I have taken the car upto a top speed of 90 kmh and suprisingly it is not loud like a diesel. It is early days to comment on fuel economy as i have just driven about 300+ KMs. But my guess would be around 18-19 at this point. Mostly driven in Highways. No complaints about Gearbox.

Ride Quality & Handling Again the strong point of this car is its ride quality as I have found it very good, Handling is also precise with its EPS, great to go around in the busy roads in low speeds. But I feel the suspensions are bit too soft for my liking.

Final Words Well having done just 300+ kms after taking deleivery just 4 days back, the experience is so far up to the expectation.

Areas of improvement Does what ever promised of it being a 1ltr diesel car. So far nothing to ponder upon.
