Worth buying for all

I brought SumoGrande on 12th Dec 08. Same vehicle my bro and driver rejected 4 months back. I wanted to buy mHawk Scorpio but when I went for Grande Trial, I was seating on 3rd row, which is what made me choose this vehicle. Ride track was bumpy and when I was secured with safety belt, I rather enjoyed that bumpy ride.

I work abroad and driven Mercedes, BMW, Pajero and Honda. In India, my home town Ahmednagar, Maharashtra, has bumpy roads around. This vehicle is indeed good to go to my farms, town with full load. I use this vehicle to carry my farm produce too.

The name "Sumo" tag does not matter as vehicle perform well. Some cheap plastic inside hardly bothered me. (My 8 yrs old son thought about it and made wiered comment whether this car is from China..... ) Nevertheless, I drove this vehicle almost 1500 km in one week. First servicing cost me Rs 1500.00 and now next due is after 15000 km.

When I brought this vehicle - I did not read any reviews and was total blind. Today i feel proud owner of Grande cause it serves me well. Every vehicle in the world has plus and minus. I installed rear view camera for reverse, added additional front and rear guards. That is all i had to do as Grande came fully loaded.

Gear shift is still problem but it was there in Scorpio as well (which I still own). I made my self adjusted to the system Grande has. Now my hands perfectly shift gears, and other controls.

What I suggest is install rear view camera for Grande, as it gives clear idea you dont bump others behind, as you hardly see anything behind. Otherwise vehicle is real good and worth for buying.

I brought this vehicle from Hundekari Auto from Ahmednagar, the best service provider, after sale. They hinted me not to install Mac wheel as thickness of tubeless tyres are enough to take jerks.

Just last words, don’t forget to use safety belts whatever vehicle you buy as it saves life and make your journey comfortable.

I will keep posting as i drive Grande for longer time giving you feedback about performance
