It is your value for money.It is a myth that diesel vehicle needs more maintenance as I have driven the vehicle for more than 70, 000 KMS and find that the maintenance is less than the petrol vehicle that I have. On more than four occassions I have driven the vehicle for more than 1000 Kms non stop and find no problems and on the contrary it is very reliable and never gives trouble on roads. I have even travelled overnight from Mumbai to Jaipur in 18 hours which the speed at which it can travel long distances without difficulty. I have driven the vehicle of all types of roads and find that it can travel all terrains without any difficulty.
I have driven the vehicle upto Badrinath twice, Assam thrice, Orissa twice Kolkata Five times Mumbai Twice and Dwarka twice from Jaipur and had no problems. My friends who bought the vehicle on reccomandations are also very happy.
