Before you analyze this car you need to understand the buying goals of an average Indian car buyer. He wants a car which costs around 5 lacs, gives a fuel economy of 30km/l and can accommodate his family and in-laws and parents at the same time.
Brezza designers had a stiff target to start with. In addition to that, they had the target of beating the segment leader Ford Ecosport too.
Looking back, I can say with a good amount of certainty that the team succeeded immensely.
Inside the car, you have loads of space. The back seat can accommodate three male adults easily. The ride quality is a perfect balance between comfort and handling. I get a fuel economy of 16.5km/l in bumper to bumper city traffic.
Driving the car is a piece of cake. The high riding position gives you a lot of confidence. Plus you can actually see the bonnet from the driver's seat. That makes you nearly invincible in cutthroat city traffic, where motorists fight for every inch of road space.
The only downside in this car is the tiny 1.3-litre engine which delivers poor acceleration in city speeds. On the highways lack of power is not a problem. Once you cross the 1800 rpm mark, the same feeble, powerless engine becomes a monster. You get a flat and linear power delivery till 120 km/h.
