Performance:

The car is very a great option for compact Indian family car. the turbo engine in this car is humungous. The 1.4L diesel turbo engine gives a power of 68 BHP and a torque of 13 Kgm at 3500 rpm. The car really provides great punch while you drive. The car is engine wise is definitely a great option and a great competitor for the likes of the Santro, Swift and Ritz. The car really gives a power drive and goes to amazing speeds. I say amazing because we are here considering only small family cars. The car has got the mettle to really go on to touch speeds of around 140 kmph. Also the car accelerates to 100 kmph in less than 17 seconds. If the car is redlined, the engine will even give better results with respect to speed. The car is definitely a speedster even though it is in the family car segment. The car is superb with the mileage even. The car gives a mileage of around 14 kmpl in the city while on highways it goes around 18 which again is a plus point as far as economy is concerned. The Indica V2 turbo is really an engine which gives you 100% productivity. But the car also has its drawbacks. Basically being a diesel engine, ang even after having a turbo engine, the drive to me does not have the necessary pick up that a petrol variant ahs. The difference always will be there and this car is no exception. While you are on off roads or on those dangerous turns, this car has a little slowness in it to catch up.

Overview:

The car to me is a great option for a petrol variant. Especially if you are the one who needs your car for a daily use, then this diesel engine with its turbo will definitely give you the best results. As the car is way too economic, the car will be absolutely cheap in the drive per litre. The car is a tremendously powerful and you would just want to press the gas and zoom ahead. The compact car that it is, it’s easy to really maneuver the car through heave city traffic and also place your car in the parking slots. Priced at around 4, 15,000 INR (ex-showroom Delhi) this car is absolutely worth its price.
