Aria Pure Lx on road below 10lacs

EExterior

The exteriors does have a different look but mostly a lay man relates to it as an over grown Innova type of car. Though I disagree as the car has a SUV type of stance but if the nose dive front could be rectified then it will be one of the best looking SUV and not a cross over. I think TATA should take a some design ideas by studying the Q7 front as it will be best suited design for the rest of the Aria's design.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 I just love the simple straightish no nonsense dash board, I think it is totally range rover (old model) inspired and much better then the competitors.

Though the Pure LX model does not have a audio system and nor does it have a ABS or EBD but no complains as it has landed me on road octroiless for 9.80lacs, yes you read it right. Same price as an Maruti Ertiga Vdi.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Engine is smooth and has enough grunt. 2.2litre dicor is refined and fuel efficient for the size of the car.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Ride is smooth and completely planted on road, the best part is the suspensions. bad roads or no roads are hardly felt inside.

Final Words

 Best value for money in the price range. Since this was a 2012 stock model I was offerred with 1.5lac discount plus I saved 20000 on Insurance and registration  as I did that on my own and not through the dealer. I always think that the car I have is comparable to a Ertiga VDI model in price and if I compare with any 7seater car below 10 lacs I think ARIA beats them all very comfortably. This has landed me approximate 3.80lacs cheaper then an XUV well does any one think there can be a better deal then this?

The car at this price is the best value for money package anyone can think of. Also since there are not much ARIA 's on the road my car catches enough attention. 

Also most important factor is 3 years warranty and 1lAC kilometre. At additional Rs.7500 a year of warranty for 50000 is also available. Well that means zero ownership headaches 

Extra money spent of touch screen music system (pioneer+ JBL components) , seat covers , spoiler, black vinyls on door pillars and reverse camera in total 38000. Thus Aria with all extra fittings has costed me 10.18lacs on road.

Areas of improvement  

 Design can be improved from rear and the minor cosmetic change to the bonet( similar to Q7) can make a lot of change to the over all design.

After Sales Service is still far from satisfactory.
