An Excellent Premium Hatchback

Exterior Very Good, Infact there is no comparison with other hatchbacks. Full marks for exterior looks as far as I am conserned.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Quality of interiors is very good as compared to Maruti brand cars and Tatas. Driving seat is firm and very comfortable. Adjutable Steering Feature even in basic model is very useful, specially for long drives. Dashboard display has all the basic features displayed like clock, distance to empty, fuel guage, tripmeter, door ajar warning, etc ...all in digital form.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Gears are very-very smooth. Reverse gear can be engaged only by keeping the gear knob slightly pressed down while shifting it to extreme left & forward. There is no chance of engaging reverse gear by mistake when the car is moving.

Engine gives diesel cluter initially, specially in lower gears. However, their is hardly any noice after the engine is warmed up and you shift to 4-5 gear. The car accelerate smoothly. However, acceleration is slightly lower as compared to Swift , specially in 5th gear if the speed is 60 kmph or lower. Infact you have to shift to 4th if driving below 55 kmph. It accecelates well above 70 kmph. But that is ok for normal driving. In city driving you have to drive mostly in 2-3 gear and on highway, speed is normally above 70. So, it is not a big drawback.

Ride Quality & Handling Excellent. There is no comparison with Swift, Dzire, Indica and Huyndai. You don't realise that you are driving at 100 kmph till U see the speedo. Suspension and shocker system is too good. You don't get the shocks even on rough roads. Noice insulation is very good as compared to Swift and most of the other cars.

There is no ratalling noice or tyre noice  in the car. Also, the steering is very light and comfortable.

I am getting around +20 kmpl with city+ highway driving with AC on for 80 to 90 % time. The car has done 2370 km in the last 2 months.

Final Words Buy it if you want a quality product and are willing to pay more for the same.
