I landed with this car by accident. After I moved into
Bangalore from
US, I come across someone going other way around. So, I bought this car
from them. Having used other cars in Bangalore
(Maruthi, Ford, Toyota,
etc), I found this car surprisingly good.
I get decent 10 km/liter within Bangalore
city limits with AC on all the time. I did go for long drive, which time
I received 17-20 km/liter. I wish this
car would provide better mileage. I
wonder when we can see Hybrid cars in India(esp by Honda).
This car is very comfortable and easily maneuverable. With crazy Bangalore traffic, I can
get out unscathed. Of course
Automatic gear makes drive much easier. Even at higher speeds I did not
notice any issues, where as other cars would shake/rattle. The automatic transmission works great, I did
not feel gear shifting inside; which I had experienced in my earlier vehicles.
I hate low ground clearance of this car. I must always lookout for speed breakers;
especially in India
they are not clearly marked. I am bit concerned
about servicing this car outside major metros.
So far I have not encountered this situation, Hope I never will.
