It's been one year since I bought my Verna trnsform VTVT, done 19000KM. This is my third car(Alto VX1.1, Swift VDi, Verna) bought on July, 2010 . It is pleasure to drive this car, enough power, great looks, Good fuel efficiency, road grip, handling.


Selecting car:


There are many sedans available in the market now, I was looking for a car in 8-10 lakh price tag. selection is based on the budget, service and fuel efficiency. I had shortlisted 3 cars, City, Verna and SX4.


Ford, Lenea were not in the list from begining though they are doing good in the car market.


Test driving: There was no much diference I felt when I drove all 3, All three were the basic models.


Why Verna VTVT:


Cost( Ex showroom): Verna: 6.70 City: 8.40 SX4: 6.80


City looks more luxury, more refined costing~1.5L more than the Verna and fuel efficiency is not good as new city is now having VTech engine with more power, Earlier, City was having IDS engine which was giving~13KM/L in city.


SX4 is more reliable, having good service network but I didn't like the shape. Mileage is also not appreciable.


Model: VTVT(without audio)Electrical ORVM adjust, Manual A/C, All power windows, Wooden finish.


Buying: I booked the car @ Trident, Bangalore in May 2010, dealer promised that they will deliver the car in June 2nd week. I was just waiting for the car but they couldn't deliver as they promised. One day sales executive called me and informed that huyndai is planning to launch new version of Verna(Transform). I was little happy but disapponted also. New model will be facelifted and could be little expensive. Sales execute didn't have any details about the new model. I was eager to see the model and cost. I fixed my budget, if there is any variation, it would be difficult to arrange extra money.


Afer a week, Trident recieved White Verna transform, There were no changes in the specification but only in terms of exterior and some interior changes.


Driving experience: Cabin is quite, Seating position is very good, I never felt exausted even after driving for more than 600KM. It runs very smoothely. The pickup is good. There is no need to change the gears for overtaking other vehicles. There is no lagging when you switch on the A/C. Steering is smooth and very responsive. One important feature I liked in Verna is the brakes. Though mine is without ABS, I never felt it is requried. A/C is too good. Suspension is good with 3 people in rear seat. What I personally felt was the car drives smoothely when it is loaded with 2-3 pesron, when I am driving alone, It is not that comfortable when there is load.


Fuel efficiency: I am getting 12KMPL and 17KMPL in City and Highway rRajeev_Vermactively with A/C on.


Maintainance: 1st free service was on 1000KM. 2nd free service on 10000KM /6 Months. 3rd free service on 20000KM/1Year.I got my car(3rd) serviced @ 15000KM it was about to complete one year.


Problems with the car: There was little body vibration @ 1500RPM when I push the accelerator in 3rd gear. It was recitified in the second service. There was issue with clutch, which was taken care in the 1st service.


Accessories:


14' Alloy wheels - Set of 5(23K)


Seat covers: Elegant - Suede velvet fabric(4.5K)


Music system: JVC AVX-836(26K)


Speakers: I didn't buy the speaker as car was fitted with Rear/Front speakers and tweeters in front door.


Rear parking sensor: Huyndai brand with four sensor on rear bumper and display on RVM with audio.(Free with car)


Rear camera: Connected to JVC Audio system(2K)
