మహీంద్రా kuv100 [2016-2017] వినియోగదారుల రివ్యూలు

Exterior - excellant

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) - excellant, rear seat should have been foldable fully flat

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox - Poor 12 Km / litre, Petrol - city driving, engine noise when accelrating, poor accelration in 2nd / 3rd / 4th gear, 5th gear gets stuck when changing to lower gears sometimes.

 

Ride Quality & Handling - great but it thuds when crossing a speedbreaker at 20 - 30 KM / hour

 

Final Words

 

Areas of improvement   Hand brake does not work

 

Overall product, particularly looks and interiors are very good but there are serious manufacturing or quality concerns which needs to be addressed urgently before it becomes a serious safety concern.

1.    Hand brake does not work at reasonable incline. The car starts moving backwards.......... which means that it is dangerous to park the car on incline, especially if you are travelling on the hills.

2. 5th gear gets stuck sometimes when you want to change to lower gears........ this can cause accidents while driving.

3.The mileage is really low. I have driven around 900 KMs and have filled it 3 - 4 times, and consistently it is giving 12 KM / litre on AC and city driving....... what about claims of 18 KM+ / Litre. I would have bought the diesel variety if I had know that it will give such a low mileage. My 7 year old Maruti A star gives 15 Km / litre under similar conditions. Has Mahindra has given inflated fuel efficiency figures, akin to Volkswagen?

4. The engine makes rubbing noise while accelerating.

5.The movement of the car is jerky while shifting gears. Also, the acceleration is poor in 2nd / 3rd & 4th gear.

 The dealer personnel suggest that the mileage will improve post 1st servicing and the engine will also be tuned for smoothness and pick-up. I DO HOPE SO!! Let me see if handbrake and 5th gear also gets sorted out. But if it is design flaw then???

 

Looks & interiors. Sadly miss a CD / MP3 playerReal seats which do not fully fold flat and poor mileage of 12 KM / litre petrol city driving
