Tavera has undoubtedly the best engine in its class. The turbo charged Isuzu engine is quiet and very powerful. My Chevy easily touches the 150 KM per hour mark on the Pune-Mumbai expressway. The car gives amazing pickup at the slightest touch on the accelerator.
Tavera has very good interiors. The cushions are good. The legroom in the second and third row is very very good. Even a six footer can sit very comfortably in the third row. The bucket seats offer great back support and are good for long drives. The wood finish on the instrument panel is also good. The electronic trip meter is very helpful and has class of its own.
My Tavera has TRAC(Triple row AC). The AC is fantastic. I have to increase the temperature, or my hands get ice cold! Even when I drive in the sweltering heat of Goa or Mumbai, the AC cools the full interior perfectly. The third row passengers are also well taken care of, with the third row AC blowers.
The car gives the best visibility any driver can ever hope for. The wind screen is large and the driving position is very good. Even if the driver is short, there won’t be any problem.
The Tavera is very easy to handle and the gears are very easy to change. The centre console provided in higher end models like mine, are very good and spacious. The power steering responds to the touch of a finger! The Tavera has a very small turning radius. So taking a U turn will not be problem even in the narrow streets. The steering wheel is very beautiful. My wife simply loves the leather covered steering, with a beautiful Chevy cross on it. The Tavera has amazing pickup and torque. It is possible to drive in the 3rd gear with a speed of 20Km/hr. This is specially useful in the city. It helps in fuel efficiency too! My Tavera’s gear shift is silky smooth.
Got a mileage of around 16 on highway, with AC. I drove all the time at around 90 to 100km/hr. At some places I could drive only at 20 km/hr, as the roads we so bad. I have never felt more comfortable in any other vehicle!
