          Its almost 8-10 months that I have been driving this piece of wonder. And I feel, its good time to write a review now having driven this vehicle for almost a year. (My earlier review is below)
Driving Experience
I have mostly self driven this vehicle and enjoyed every bit of it. As Verna is known for acceleration, let me not write anything about it. Fantastic braking (Even without ABS). Very stable at high speeds (I touched 170 KMPH on this monster and let me tell you, at this speed, your stomach gets into your mouth) Its an experience which one gets while you experience a take off by a plane.
Interiors - very very comfortable and roomy. Handling - superb !
Even though I had mostly used this car for city driving, it is toooooo comfortable and I do not regret having paid the tag on it ! The dashboard is simple and one doesn’t need to strain the brain for use of features. The added features like Goggles holder is very handy.
Air Conditioner
A very very powerful AC, chills the car in minutes!
Back Seat Experience
Even though I possessed this vehicle for over 10 months, I never sat at the back seat, till recently when I had to hire a driver... and let me tell you, the seat is comfortable. Leg room apt and the noise is very meager.
Seating
Both the front seats have a good height. One doesn’t need to crawl into the car, like Honda Civic!
After Sales
I really didn’t have to visit dealer for after sales, but for the free servicing, which were pick at drop at my place. Its a great relief in the traffic of city like Hyderabad.
Its been a great experience with this car.
Cheers

September 2007
I bought CRDi SX (without ABS) in May 2007. If I need to define my experience in a word, its ’ SHEER POWER’ ! The raw power which the engine delivers, pulls you in your seat. One hardly feels that he is driving a diesel car. The looks of verna, as compared to the accent CRDi are more youthful and the interiors more roomy. The height is just adequate, not requiring one to feel like sitting down on a 6 inch high mat! I wanted a car, which once i drive out of showroom, will not require me to spend even a penny - and Verna CRDi SX exactly delivered it. Till now, I have not spent even a single pie on the car (except for diesel offcourse ;-)) The kenwood stereo with tweeters is superb. Interiors are reasonably calm. Small enhancements like goggle holder, arm rest for back seat, adjustable side mirrors, climate control add in a lot of comfort. Theatrecal dimming of lights inside is also something which I love! Overall, if one is planning to buy a car, which vrooms at touch of the pedal, this is the one!
