ஸ்கோடா ஃபேபியா யூசர் ரிவ்யுஸ்

 

Exterior Exterior is good looking, sturdy, known for its sturdiness, since I have been using SKODA OCTAVIA for a long time, with all needed improved features.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior space is good, seating comfort is okay, but the inner fabric used ( BEIGE COLORED) gets soiled immediately forcing us to chenge the same to some dark colored fabric or leather. I changed it to leather. This can be changed to Black or grey fabric.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance is very good, except for the excess noise during cold start and you can feel the total noiseless comfort when driving in a highway at 90 km speed. Mileage is excellent and my average is around 4.7 litres per 100 kms for my total dring of around 6000 kms.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is good and handling is very easy.

 

Final Words The dealer in Chennai GURUDEV motors put me in lots of trouble by giving a FABIA which has already done 1130 kms saying the it is a brand new car. The pleasure of getting a new car is last because of the cheating of GURUDEV motors Chennai.

 

Areas of improvement The speedometer glowing can be changed to BLUE colour since the black illumination is not visible most of the time. Parking sensors may be added in the front and rear. The engine can be reduced further.

 

STURDY, GOOD LOOKING, GOOD MILEAGE, EASY DRIVING,INiTIAL NOISE, VERY BAD DEALERSHIP, BAD INTERIORS

As i already mentioned it was a used car..after buying i spend a lot of money in servicing..i changed turbo, clutch plate and now fuel pump.bt still the problem persists..suddenly it doesn't start and after servicing twice. the problem still occurs. its better to get a new car or else you should take a good mechanic with you while testing the vehicle before making a deal.

 

Exterior This is the real 'perfect car' no feature which overwhalems and no feature lagging, all the things are at its place and as much as needed, no jazzy gadgets [ although those are useless if the basic machine is not perfect hence not needed ]no fancy stearing / bluetooth / features, which hardly matters , the engine and driving comfor is best in class, only thing which lacks is the rare wash wiper, i do not understand how such a pefect car can miss on it.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interiors are good, but the car is meant for 4 ONLY, its not a 5 seater car.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Best in class, ammmazing engine and drive control, safe and fully under control even at the speed of 164! No servicing till 1st 15000 KMS, see the confidance of workmanship and product quality! Gives 17 kmpl in city and 23 kmpl on highways

 

Ride Quality & Handling 5 star!

 

Final Words Its a car for self driven individuals and not a chauffeur driven ppl. The most comfortable place in the car is the driver's seat. rare seats are just for the sake,

 

Areas of improvement rare seat, rare wash wiper, lare leg room.

 

engine, power, driving comfort, UI and console,rare seating arrangments

Exterior

The exterior is very very solid. Very Good Metal Quality from Skoda. Could have been little more stylish.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

1. Boot Space : Fiat Punto & The New Maruti Swift has to beg for this much of boot space. The moment you open the boot, you feel WOW for this hatchback.

2. Leg Room : The leg room is very good. I give more importance for Leg room, especially for ladies and elders seating at rear. Believe me, with this car, you can take the highway non stop for even a 300km.  The rear seat is very comfortable.

3. The AC is good, The car came with a Skoda Audio System which supports a AUX and CD. The sound quality is good. The audio system could have had a pendrive and Bluetooth portability.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Engine Quality : Me before purchasing this car, read the reviews of others.  Many said that the engine noise is high. But believe me, the car had more engine noise only for the 800kms. Once the engine gets tuned and refined, The engine noise reduces. I have driven the car for 5200km till now in 3 months. I can see the difference. I cant harldy hear the engine noice now.

Fuel Economy : In City its 15 Kmpl & Highways 23Kmpl. I am satisfied.

Gear Box : U should realize that you are driving a diesel engine. When you cut the gear from 3 to 2, you can feel a little sluggishness in the pick up with AC switched on. But thats fine in City Driving. No body in city driving can touch 100km with top gear. So its useless talking about pickup in city limits.

Yes in highways the car is very good. The one driving should be a good driver.  

Ride Quality & Handling

The ride quality is good. Even when drivig in a Highway, you wont get the air noise inside the cabin. The handling is very smooth. The driver surely wont get tired.

Overall it has passed. 

Final Words

This is the question which veryone has when purchasing a car. Even i had, before 3 months. The question is which car to go for? I was looking only for the highend variants.

Ford Figo or Fiat Punto or Volkswagen Polo or Skoda Fabia

Ford Figo : It is a decent car. When i sat inside. Somehow i got this cheap feel of interiors. The glossy Silver Finish. I rejected it. Still its a good car overall.

Fiat Punto : Loved the technologies they have brought it. MAN you get everything inside the car. Steering mount Buttons. Bluetooth. Auto lights. Auto wippers, Auto climate control. It is superb value for money. but if you sit in the back, you will get knee pain and when you plan for a trip please take some additional surf excel or Rin to wash your clothes, becasue you got to reuse your clothes since you cant carry more due to very very small boot space.

Volkswagon Polo : Spot Rejected when sat inside the car, in the showroom. Its clear, folkswagen is makes us look like fools. The cheap steering and cabin look. The front & rear seat is very very cramped, you can even travel within the city.

Skoda Fabia : The fabric finish inside the interiors, the solid buit, very good Boot and Leg room. The height and Pull adjustable steering & SKODA Batch.  Above all, I give importance to people who are sitting with me in the car. Their comfort is very importance.

So went for SKODA FABIA & I AM HAPPY....... 

 

Areas of improvement  

Bring in the technologies into the fabia.... The rest will be taken care by SKODA Batch....

 

 

Seating Comfort, Leg Room & Boot Space, Height & Pull Adjustable Steering, Tough BodyNo Stylish Interior, No Auto Climate Control, No Steering Mounted Control.

Exterior Good.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) I have top end for that money I would have got better music system, Space is ok, Comfort is good 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Repais, Repais Repairs, I have spend lot of money on it.

Ride Quality & Handling Good.

Final Words Never ever buy skoda, lot of problems and after sale service is too bad.

Areas of improvement Car it self has some problems, They have to improve the engine and service is worst. My car got break down and I have called skoda service and no response from them. I have spend lot of money for towing and I have waited for almost one month for repair very poor response from service centre. after this with month again some problem in clutch . I have changed the clutch plates totally till now I have spent more than 40,000K just for repairs aprt from this for serive so much money. They have to provide better serivce.

body style interiorengine performance is worst, lot of repairs

Exterior Good looks of a premium sedan. 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Engine hood opener is on the left side. Excellent interiors but easily get soiled. Back seat is very spacious and comfortable.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Performance upto 2000 rpm is average. Hence not enjoyable in slow traffic. At highway speed is very good. But have not exceeded 100kmph so far. Gear box is smooth and fuel economy varies from 16 to 20kmpl.

Ride Quality & Handling Excellent highway car. The ride is very smooth. Car is very stable at high speeds.

Final Words If you travel often on highway with family and luggage and drive self look no further. The car also offers excellent premium feel. If you travel a lot in the city with not so good roads with speed bumps it is better to employ a driver and enjoy the back seat.

Areas of improvement Bumpy ride in front seat.

FUEL ECONOMY, SPACE, BACK SEAT RIDE, EASY TO DRIVE, BOOT SPACEBUMPY RIDE OVER POT HOLES IN SLOW SPEED, LESS FEATURES.
