6. Driving & Comfort

Driving & Comfort Assessment

Performance Score9.0/10
Comfort Score7.8/10

City Driving

The automatic transmission makes stop-and-go traffic easy to manage. Turning radius of 5.2m is reasonable for urban maneuvers. Good ground clearance for everyday Indian road conditions. Large footprint makes narrow lanes challenging, but visibility helps.

Highway Performance

With 190 bhp and 441 Nm, overtaking at highway speeds is effortless. Strong diesel torque of 441 Nm makes highway driving relaxed, especially in higher gears.

Ride & Comfort

Torsion beam rear suspension handles most road imperfections adequately. Premium cabin insulation keeps NVH levels low for a refined experience. 350L boot space is adequate for weekend trips. Third-row seating is best for children; adults may find it cramped on long journeys.
