How does the Kia Carnival perform compared to the usual minivans and SUVs?
03 January 2025 11:38
The steering is nice and weighted, but when you're driving a car this big you can't avoid the physics. It's comfortable, not sporty.
Is the Kia Carnival worth more than a traditional minivan?
03 January 2025 11:38
It depends on what you value. If you don't want a minivan that looks like one, the Carnival is great. If you just need practicality, don’t go for the more expensive ones.
Is the Staria's unique design at the expense of being a functional minivan?
03 January 2025 06:39
In fact, the unique design may actually bring more people to minivans who would otherwise buy SUVs. It’s making the segment cool again.
Is the XEV 7e’s dashboard too minimalist for Indian consumers?
31 December 2024 10:51
You're all missing the point. Distracted driving is the real issue. The more touchscreen dependency we have, the more eyes off the road we have. It's a safety concern.
Is the S-Presso really a 'mini SUV' or just clever marketing?
30 December 2024 08:02
Clever marketing, however, it is misleading. It gives the wrong expectations to the buyer who might believe they are getting more than they are.
Was the Celerio X a car ahead of its time by predicting the mini-SUV trend?
30 December 2024 07:36
Maruti was dipping their toes in the water with the Celerio X. Perhaps they just used it to test the waters before going all in with the S-Presso.
How does the resale value of the Supro Profit Truck stand up to other mini trucks?
27 December 2024 10:56
Speaking in terms of resale value it has been a mixed bag for me. It does depreciate quite a bit as a base model, but if you have a well maintained customized base model for a specific business use you can actually get a decent price for it. It really comes down to finding the right buyer.
But how practical is a Supro in crowded Indian cities?
27 December 2024 10:47
It’s a cost, but it’s practical. Yes, it’s easy to drive around in, but it comes at the expense of much passenger comfort and cargo space.
Could the Supro become a cool mini-camper for budget travelers?
27 December 2024 10:47
If you are a budget traveler in India, a Supro camper could be a game changer. They are cheap to run, they are easy to park and they have just enough space for the basics.
Is the Supro's no frills design a positive or negative for commercial users?
27 December 2024 10:47
The no frills design is certainly a plus for commercial users. Less downtime and lower maintenance costs because there’s less stuff to break.
With the right modifications could the Supro be India's answer to the iconic VW Microbus?
27 December 2024 10:47
With the right mods it could most definitely capture some of that Microbus vibe. Two tone paint, round headlights and a custom interior would take it a long way.
Is the Mahindra Supro really a ‘proper’ van, or just a glorified utility vehicle?
27 December 2024 10:47
It absolutely qualifies as a van for the Indian market. But we also have to consider context – not every van needs to be the size of a Sprinter.
Is the Supro CNG payload sufficient for most small business needs?
27 December 2024 10:40
When you have a small grocery delivery business like mine, the 750 kg payload is plenty. I don’t often max it out, but the compact size is perfect for squeezing through tight city streets and squeezing into small parking spaces. It's ideal for my needs.
Is the Mahindra Supro Minitruck CNG a 'profit truck' for small businesses?
27 December 2024 10:39
I’d say that’s kind of a case by case thing. It's really great for short urban routes. However, if you’re going for longer hauls or heavy loads, you may want to consider other options. The initial cost is also higher than some competitors, so you’ll need to weigh that against your own needs.
How does the Supro CNG perform in the real world in crowded city conditions next to electric alternatives?
27 December 2024 10:39
There are many factors, it really depends on the infrastructure. The Supro is great in cities where CNG networks are good. More time on the road means quick refueling. If you have access to fast charging for electrics, though, that could be better in the long run.
Is the Supro CNG's bi fuel system a gimmick or does it really offer a real advantage?
27 December 2024 10:39
It's a smart transitional technology, I think. The switch to CNG is less daunting for new users as CNG infrastructure is still being developed in many areas and having a petrol backup. It's also helping push adoption of cleaner fuels.
Is the Mahindra Jeeto really a ‘mini truck for winners’ or just overhyped marketing?
27 December 2024 09:25
Winners? If you ask me, it's more of a "mini truck for constant repairs." Honestly, I’ve spent more time in the service center than I have actually using it for my business. For heavy loads, the single cylinder engine just won't do. Don't save your money on something that will not stand the test of time.
Is the Tata Winger comfortable and feature laden enough to take on the modern minivans?
26 December 2024 09:27
The simplicity of the Winger is its strength. It's less likely to have expensive electronic failures down the road and easier to maintain.

What is the minimum down payment for the Yamaha FZS V3?
11 September 2023 06:53
If you are planning to buy a new bike on finance, then generally, a 10 to 30 percent down payment is required on the on-road price of a bike.

We would suggest you get in touch with the nearest dealership to get exact information.
