Looks stylish and painting is also soo good.
*Interior(Features, Space & Comfort)*
All the available features are very good for this vehicle(model VDI SVHS Diesel) espically the adjustable OVRM with indicators, reverse sensor, etc. 2nd row seat is movable so that we get good/right space for 2nd row(3 persons) and 3rd row(2 person). 3rd row seat is splittable, so easily can travel 6(2+3+1) persons with enough luggage.
*Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox*
I feel the engine performance is very good when compared with other competitive diesel vehicle. Pickup seems little low for first 90kmph, after that will get very good power. Good control even in 120-140kmph. Brake(ABS) is excellent. There is no much difference in engine power while driving with 7 persons in highways and also in hill stations.
Very good mileage(around 20kmpl) if we drive less than 2500RPM. If we drive more than 120Kmph(or more than 3500RPM) the mileage should be around 14Kmph, not less than that. AC was not good in high speed. In high speed(more than 100kmph), the AC is not enough for all persons. Clutch and Gear box are very smooth.
*Ride Quality & Handling*
Feels very easy, comfortable for driving and handling. Not feel like driving a heavy vehicle. Not to worry about parking space, can easily park in any small parking slot.
Any person can continuously drive for 12hrs, that much smooth clutch and no vibration in gearbox, pedal area etc. All the pedals(Brake, clutch & acc.) are very good and soft for pushing.
*Final Words*
Good Value for money. No other vehicle can beat this, with this price, performance, maintenance(minimum service cost) and features available in it. **Areas of improvement** Needs to concentrate on 2nd row hand rest, all the headrest and different interior colour.
