Exterior
Without doubt this car has great looks... looks like a car, not a jeep. Has a solid body as compared to other cars. Only one rear light switches 'ON' while reversing back, I think its a Volkswagen trademark style.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
Again interiors are also of very good quality, although they look simple. The dashboard, music system, all are quite sober as compared to other cars like Hyundai, Ford etc. Beige colour interiors look very nice. Music system lacks some very important USB/AUX port. But CD player and Radio are fine.
Space inside is OK. But visibility outside from driver's seat is very average. Was difficult to drive earlier on, but now it is ok, if very fine driving is not required. But this is expected as this car is 'car' like not jeep type.
Seats are comfortable. 5 persons can fit in, but 4 are comfortable.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
So far there are no complaints, although it is noisy as compared to other cars like Suzuki, Nissan. Although some people may feel engine noise as 'Sporty'
Economy 12-15 km/l.
Gearbox is very good. Very easy to change gears. Reverse gear is in 'front' of 1st gear and not after 5th as in other cars, another VW feature.
Ride Quality & Handling
Very good. Although I have not driven many cars, but it is quite good.
Final Words
Overall, its a good package, in 6 lacs.
Areas of improvement
Music system can be improved. Better rear view mirror, seat adjustment to improve outside visibility.
Looks are good, built quality is very good, has an appeal of expensive car, good ride qualityoutside visibility is poor from driver's seat, no height adjustment, noisy engine
