I purchased this car 3 years back in 2014 and here is my longterm review of using this car for around 3 years, firstly I would tell that this is a hatchback by chevrolet in India and this model has been discontinued as general motors have closed their operations in India.
Here is the review on various points :
LOOKS:
This car used to be one of the beautiful cars three years back but as years passed this car started looking quite dated because of no modification in design by company, so now I would say that this car looks quite dated.
ENGINE:
This car is powered by a 993 cc diesel engine that produces a maximum power of 57 bhp at
4000 rpm which is quite less as compared to other car available in this category like swith that produces a power of around 68 to 75 bhp, so overall this car feels quite underpowered both on paper as well as on road.
MILEGE:
This car gives a milege of around 18 in City which I feel is quite good however company claims 25 kmpl of milege but in highways this car would fetch around 22 kmpl of milege so in terms of milege this is a very good car., but I am not sure about milege of petrol model as I have never used petrol model of this car.
SERVICE:
the service of this car is quite pathetic as the service centers are not available in every city and moreover the service cost is quite high on pocket the parts are a bit costly as compared to other cars in this segment, if you have 3 years warranty than its good otherwise it would make a huge hole in your pocket.
And the parts are not easily available even at the service center so we have to wait for 15-20 days even for any small part.
RESALE VALUE:
the resale value of this car is very low in marketint this is the case here with all chevrons vehicles I purchased this car for 6. 5 lakes and now I am getting offers of 2 lakh.
COMFORT:
the suspension of this car were good initially but after 1 year of usage the became quite hard and I took the car to service center twice but they were not able to repair it so in long term usage this car won't be that comfortable.
FINAL OPINION:
so my final opinion about this car is that one should go for Martin swift instead of wasting money on this car.
