VEST 53K OR INVEST MORE 10K FOR PROVEN PRODUCT FOR LAST 15 YEARS(ACTIVA) OR EVEN SUZUKI ACCESS BE A BETTER CHOICE
REVIEW Post 8990KMS run, with avg 65kms daily(99% run on WE highway) and 28 KMS at a stratch.
==Service: ==*PATHETIC SERVICE FROMSERVICE CENTRE(SHREEJI AUTO_MIRAROAD)
Very Bad service standards, engneers(so called) not trained to handle vehicles, I discovered new problem everytime vehicle visited service centre.
Very reluctant to accept issue on vehicle.
Engineers keep doing R&D on your vehicle, if not solved the given problem, they do not hassitate even to open the Engine without your concern.(I WAS VERY PARTICULAR AND SAVED MY SCOOTER ENGINE TO BE NAKED, where there was issue with Clutch Assembly)
Milage:
Pathetic Milage initially(only 15-20 knpl till 300 kms). My Maruti SX4 vxi CGN+Petrol gives me 22-23 km/kG(GNG) and 18 km/ltr(Petrol) on highway.
after 5 services I have to keep visiting service centre every 15 days to get 35-40 knpl on highway.
it drops pickup power, and you feel this especially riding double seat or climbing flyover bridge.
Milage settings are to be adjusted regularly for any vehicle as per engineer(What the ?)
Features that tempt to buy:
Good Pickup, *Electronic Display, *Stylish Look, good body colours *colour change digital display, *good handling, *Adjustible Mirrors, *great storage space, *Reasonable price, *0-50 in abt 7-8 seconds(initially), *so called BEST in the segment with max power(including torque), * Claimed 50-55 kmpl by Auth dealer
Proved to be: Poor built fibre body, have to really be careful while driving, specially on highways need to stay well away from heavy vehicles.Electronic meters/display do not show correct fuel left(I track kilometers ran - thank god atleast this works- with added fuel based on average milage on past experience), Speedometer stops intermitently, Digital clock runs behind-keep setting every 5-6 days * Very Poor ground clearance, even a smallest bump can not be passed with more than 3-5kmph speed - worsens with double, *PATHETIC SERVICE FROMSERVICE CENTRE(SHREEJI AUTO_MIRAROAD),
Had to change the Clutch Assembly once(had to fight to be covered under warrenty). Every time visited service centre after first service so called engineers, who are not trained at all, created more and more problems than reported. Engineers keep trying and erroring, had to escalate till PUNEs Service Incharge for getting the things soreted out. After clutch assembly replaced, it lost the pickup power, can not get speed above 40 while climbing fly over bridge, worsens if you ride double seat.
In all to conclude, the POWER SCOOTER might proved to be a better choice only if you have good servicing hand, easy access to service centre for RPM and Milage settings.
