      Feels luxurious and sleek, attractive looks, great performance, excellent handling and good ride, fantastic build, fit and finish. Mileage is 8 to 10 kmpl in the city and 13 to 14 kmpl on the highways. Missing some features that you would expect at this price, but they were not deal breakers for me.
