6. Driving & Comfort

Driving & Comfort Assessment

Performance Score5.0/10
Comfort Score7.0/10

City Driving

Manual gearbox requires more effort in heavy traffic, but offers good control. Turning radius of 5.2m is reasonable for urban maneuvers. Good ground clearance for everyday Indian road conditions.

Highway Performance

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.
