Car Summary

  • Strengths: Extremely competitive pricing, flexible 5‑/7‑seater layout, feature-rich (especially in Techno/Emotion), value for urban families.
  • Limitations: Engine feels underpowered on hills or full seating, AMT is sluggish, mediocre interior plastics, limited boot when full.
  • Ideal for: City‑focused buyers needing affordable 7-seater flexibility. Those planning frequent highway travel or expecting more power may consider Ertiga or even Kiger/Magnite in turbo guise.
