    Value for Money

    PURCHASE:
    New

    DRIVING:
    Few hundred kilometers

    Exterior

     Good styling.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

     Good features such as bluetooth, steering audio controls and Multifunction Display.

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

     1.6 l petrol engine is silent and good responce. Drive feel is excellant. Steering is very light to move. But changing gears is little tricky specially the reverse. Cant comment on fuel economy as driven for only 400kms.

    Ride Quality & Handling

     Ride quality is good but the car is light weight and sometimes jumps on speed breakers on little higher speed just in case you dont see well in time.

    Final Words

     I am writing this review to guide others in making their decision. I read all other reviews and got totally confused. Some people are commenting in such a language that makes me wonder whether they are capable to do so.

    I am a skoda vetern and have Octavia 2003 and Fabia 2008 both are still in very good shape and performance. So my comparision was with these cars. I did not go for Rapid just because no steering mounted audio controls were given besides the Garmin navigator and parking sensors were fitted by dealer and not by the company.

    Back to Vento it is made in India and for India and you cannot expect anything better since the way India functions reflects in these cars. Unlike Skoda cars I bought were 100% assembled in India. 

    Areas of improvement  

     Small things compared to skoda are missing 1. Right foot rest. 2. Toll slip holder on front mirror. 3. vanity mirror on driver's side.

    Instead of skoda like knob on front seat to make it recline a lever is provided it gives like a stupid Maruti Like feel.

     

    Good exterior, engine performance and ParkotronicCost cutting can be figured out. Red color is used on MFD and internal control knobs
