Exterior Its large looks,make me proud. Every one is seeing the head lights first , then looking at the logo and getting surprise that this is from TATA.You have to face the lot of jealous looks of the people.1000% it gives you a great image among your circle,Every one congratulates you.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) All are excellent, If you sit in the rear seat , you feel like your drawing room sofa. I am conducting small meeting in my car. I am making some presentations in my car.You can use it as your mobile office room with AC. 6ft+ will enjoy lavish leg room.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox I drove from hyd to mumbai and over took more than 300+ vehicles. Over taking in AC with 5 adults with boot load of luggage is little bit difficult. 25 kmpl with A/C at 60 kmph , NON AC at 80 kmph ( constant speeds ), 17 km pl on highway,12 to 14 in city depends on driving. Gear shift to fifth gear is little bit tight When engine is off, the break pedal is hard to push,we have to use more leg weight.
Ride Quality & Handling Superior ride quality, THE BEST BACK SUPPORT , I drove nearly 3000+ km, but still I dont feel like to getting out of my driving seat. My kids say another ride please , even after comig from 300 km round trip. Superb braking with ABS.
What ever you have seen in the first TV add, the owner in the drivers seat and the driver in the rear seat is 10,000% true. I have test driven linea,swift,sx4 and choosend for this. If are good at driving and reversing , you can manage in small roads also. It is suggested that you better have rear parking sensors for safety in parking. But So far, I have not gone for them.
Final Words The practical definition of VALUE FOR MONEY, Just close your eyes and choose this car for you, If you love SEDANs and SPACE, The next best car after this segment is only TOYATA COROLLA ALTIS , CHEVROLET CRUZE.
