Appeal more to heart than mind

 

Exterior Dated but sporty.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Night mare for tall drivers.

 

Dear all, no doubt ikon tdci is a good car, but few startling facts remain like the engine still is BS III compliant which company is not out rightly telling its prospective buyers, and there is no plans of upgrading engine in near future. Current norms are BS IV and in that way the engine is inferior at least on paper which means a lower resale value. Ikon has good mileage but maintenance cost is still higher in comparison to maruti, tata and hyundai. Interior space is just ok. I suggest if you are a diehard enthusiast then go for ikon, but if you can do practical planning then indigo ecs is the best option considering the price, mileage, space, superior engine (CR4 BSIV), features and total VFM.I too wanted to buy ikon diesel but after researching for one month both on internet and talking to experts i zeroed on Indigo ecs ELX. I hope you will make a good decision.

 

Ride Quality & Handling good

 

Final Words Should clearly tell that this engine is BSIII
