How does the Supro CNG perform in the real world in crowded city conditions next to electric alternatives?
27 December 2024 10:39
I used both, and I find the Supro CNG better suited to longer routes within the city, but electric better for short, frequent stops. The CNG engine has a little warm up time to it which can be annoying for several short trips.
Is the Supro CNG's bi fuel system a gimmick or does it really offer a real advantage?

I think it's a lifesaver! I've run out of CNG in places without stations around. It’s got me out of sticky situations more times than I can count using the petrol backup. This is not just a gimmick, it is a real safety net.

It’s honestly overkill to me. The petrol tank is so small that it’s hardly useful for anything above limping to nearest CNG station. I would prefer lots of range from my heavier CNG tank.

For a fleet manager, it is a flexible solution. This offers our drivers the opportunity to accept jobs in areas where CNG may not be readily accessible. I think the peace of mind is worth the extra cost.

It’s been more trouble than it’s worth. More points of failure means two fuel systems. The switchover mechanism has been a problem, and repairs are expensive. I would rather have a single fuel, simpler system.

It's a nice to have but not a game changer. CNG stations are common enough in most urban areas that I don’t need to use petrol in most cases. For those working in rural or less developed regions it might be more useful.

When I do long haul deliveries, I know the bi-fuel system will let me do routes that may not have CNG available. It’s not only about the range, but the capability to do a job, period.

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
I’ve been driving a Jeeto for more than a year now and to be honest it’s been a mixed bag. I’ll say the mileage is pretty sweet. Man, the breakdowns are a real pain though. Every time I load it up for a long haul, it’s like playing Russian roulette.

I don't think it's overhyped by any means. It’s been a godsend for small business owners like me. It's not perfect, sure, but show me a vehicle that is. It has minimal issues, and the payload capacity is spot on to my needs. Maybe I just got lucky?

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.

People think too much of a mini budget truck. The Jeeto is decent value for what it costs. It’s not going to be winning any races or hauling massive loads, but for city deliveries and small businesses, it’ll do the trick. Folks, you gotta manage your expectations.

Mahindra’s after sales service is the real issue here. The truck itself isn’t bad, but if something goes wrong, good luck getting it fixed quickly. Half the complaints would disappear overnight if they could improve their service network and spare parts availability.
Is the Tata Winger comfortable and feature laden enough to take on the modern minivans?
26 December 2024 09:27
No way. Modern minivans are dinosaurs compared to the Winger. It’s a bit like comparing a Nokia 3310 to a smartphone.

The Winger is still for pure practicality. Not everyone wants a rolling living room with 50 cupholders.

It's unfair to compare them. The Winger is a different purpose and price point. It's apples to oranges.

You can make a Winger just as comfortable as any fancy minivan with some aftermarket upgrades, and save a ton of cash.

The simplicity of the Winger is its strength. It's less likely to have expensive electronic failures down the road and easier to maintain.

Tata have to up their game. If they want to remain relevant in the passenger market, the Winger is way overdue for a major overhaul.

The Winger is still the king for commercial use. It’s tough, roomy, and does the job without unnecessary trimmings.
