Is MG Comet EV actually a practical car for Indian cities?

People are missing the point I think. It’s not supposed to be everything car. It's a brilliant purpose built city runabout. If you need a second car for short trips, this is perfect.

It all depends on your needs. Having lived in Bangalore with horrible traffic, the Comet has been a game changer for me. In a larger car, I can’t squeeze through gaps and find parking spots that would be impossible.

The lack of fast charging is a deal breaker, so I was considering it, but … If I have to take an unforeseen longer trip, what then? For now, I’ll stick with my Tiago EV.
The first question is will the 1.0 TSI engine of the Skoda Kylaq be enough for Indian driving conditions or will the buyers miss a more powerful option.

But the 1.0 TSI is more than enough. It’s punchy, efficient and ideal for city driving. This segment of buyers don't need more power than most.

I disagree. A 1.0L engine is inadequate for highway drives and full loads. Those wanting more grunt should have been offered a 1.5L from Skoda.

It's a mixed bag. I can see why some would chose more power but the 1.0 TSI is great for efficiency. Perhaps Skoda might launch a more powerful variant later?

I have driven both 1.0 and 1.5 TSI engines and the 1.0 is surprisingly capable. It’s all about the turbo, the car feels more powerful than the numbers would indicate.

Let’s be real, most Kylaq buyers will never need more than what the 1.0 TSI has to offer. For daily driving and an occasional highway trip, it's plenty.

I think Skoda's made a smart move. One engine option makes it simple, and that probably helps hold down the costs. The 1.0 TSI isn't exactly slow.

Perception is huge in India and the engine is fine but. Without even test driving it, some buyers will be turned off by the small engine size.

In fact, I like the 1.0 TSI better. Driving a slow car fast is more fun than driving a fast car slow, and the Kylaq with this engine is plenty zippy for most situations.
On Indian roads, how does the Kushaq ride quality compare to its competitors?
07 January 2025 05:16
I have driven the Kushaq extensively and believe it is a great balance. You feel sporty but it soaks up bumps well. Way better than my old Creta.

Honestly, the ride of the Kushaq is a bit too stiff for Indian roads. On smooth highways, it’s great; in the city, it’s jarring over potholes and speed breakers.

It's firmer than a Creta for sure, but that's not a bad thing. At high speeds, the Kushaq feels more planted and more confident. I'm happy with that trade off.

It all depends on what you're used to. Being from a Maruti, the Kushaq felt really plush to me. My friend who owns a Seltos says it's too firm, though.

The ride is fine, but I would have liked for Skoda to have tuned it a bit softer for India. It's sometimes like they just copied the European setup without taking our roads into account.

In fact, I actually prefer the firmer ride of the Kushaq. It makes me feel more connected to the road and gives better feedback. Not all love a floating carpet ride.

It's a mixed bag. Good on the highways, but a tad harsh in the city. I think adjustable suspension would be a good option for Skoda.
Is the Tata Magic IRIS culturally significant in terms of Indian automotive engineering?

Absolutely! This is peak Indian jugaad - practical, affordable and does the job. That’s Indian engineering at its best.

Not really. It's just a cheap design. The real Indian engineering should be more forward looking and innovative.
