What has changed about the Nissan Sunny over the years and how has it managed to keep up with ever changing consumer expectations?
06 January 2025 10:00
The Sunny has certainly come a long way, and improved by leaps and bounds when it comes to safety features and fuel efficiency. However it still lags a bit behind the competition in terms of infotainment and design.
The Nissan Patrol's fuel consumption, is it a deal breaker in today's eco conscious world?
06 January 2025 09:25
It’s a concern, but I won’t lose sleep over it. The fuel costs are nothing compared to the reliability and capability of the Patrol. And I don't daily drive it around the city, either.
Is the Kia Sonet worth the premium it commands?
03 January 2025 12:35
People are missing the point, I think. The Sonet isn’t just about the features, it’s about the complete package. It offers a quality, refinement and driving experience a step or two above most rivals. That’s what you’re paying for.
Is paying a premium for the regular Seltos worth it when you can get the X Line exclusive features?
03 January 2025 12:27
The cool features of the X-Line are there, but I'd prefer that those be available as individual options versus as a whole package. I want to be able to pick and choose what I want.
Does the Seltos X-Line’s interior quality hold up to more premium brands?
03 January 2025 12:27
For a Kia, it’s good, but it’s not up to par with a true luxury brand. Some areas feel cheap, in terms of plastics, and the overall fit and finish doesn't quite make it, either.
Should you pay the premium for the Kia Carens X Line over lower trims?
03 January 2025 11:34
I honestly don’t think it’s worth it. Most of the important features are already included on the lower Luxury Plus trim, and the X Line additions are almost entirely cosmetic. But that extra cash could just as well have been put towards accessories or saved for further maintenance.
Does the Verna's premium features come with a premium build quality?
03 January 2025 07:34
I think it’s just a matter of what you value. It’s not a tank build, if you’re looking for one. However, if you want a modern, feature packed car that can still be called decently built, the Verna is hard to beat.
Do the Verna’s premium features match its build quality?
03 January 2025 07:24
That’s kind of a personal thing, I think. It’s not for a tank like build. However, if you're looking for a modern, feature rich car and something that's still decently built, the Verna is difficult to beat.
Does the Venue N Line deserve a price premium over the top spec regular Venue?
03 January 2025 07:12
Totally worth it! The whole driving experience is transformed by the N Line’s upgrades. The suspension is stiffer, it looks sportier and there are exclusive features such as the front dash cam, all of which instantly make you feel like you’re driving a different car.
So is the Hyundai Venue's interior really as "premium" as people say?
03 January 2025 06:57
It's all relative, isn't it? Yeah, it’ll feel premium, compared to a 5 year old car. On its own, it doesn’t seem like much, but put it next to a Kia Seltos or even a higher trim Creta, and it doesn’t seem so fancy anymore. That’s good, but don’t get carried away.
Is the premium worth for the Creta N Line?
02 January 2025 10:15
In my opinion, totally worth it. It stands out on sportier looks alone, and the tweaked suspension actually makes a noticeable difference in handling. On top of that, you get some cool N Line only features. It’s a no brainer for enthusiasts.
Does the Alcazar make sense in terms of the Creta's premium features compared to the Alcazar's price?
02 January 2025 07:10
Absolutely! The Creta feels like an upgrade, and the Alcazar feels like a proper upgrade. The 360-degree camera alone is a game changer for parking in tight spots. It also feels much more premium, thanks to the larger infotainment screen, and the digital instrument cluster.
Will the premium pricing strategy of the Mahindra XUV.e9 work in the Indian market?
31 December 2024 11:18
I think it could work. People trust Indian brands more for after sales support and Mahindra's been upping their game lately.
Is the Mahindra XEV 9e's coupe like design a hit or miss among Indian consumers?
31 December 2024 11:03
It's a hit in my book. Yes, it may not be the most practical, but it's nice to see that Mahindra is willing to take a risk and play with design boundaries.
Will the rumored 350+ bhp of the XEV 7e change perceptions about EVs in India?
31 December 2024 10:51
What I’m more interested in is how does this performance manifest in the real world usability. The quick overtakes and merging would actually make EVs more appealing for daily use.
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.
The BE 6e will be a premium priced device, will its advanced features justify it?
31 December 2024 10:05
That’s a big deal, because these are over the air updates. This means that the car can get better over time, which could explain the higher up front cost.
Can the Mahindra BE.07's premium features live up to its expected high price tag?
31 December 2024 09:45
I believe that they're looking at the wrong market to serve. Mahindra buyers don't really care about tech showcases but rugged, affordable SUVs.
Will NEXA XL5’s premium features eat into sales of other Maruti models?
31 December 2024 09:25
We also need to remember that competition is not only internal. Maruti might also use the XL5 to retain those who would have otherwise already switched sides to customers wanting to the move to another brand offering premium features in a compact car. That’s as much a defensive move as anything.
Is the S Cross a premium NEXA experience or that of a Maruti overpriced?
31 December 2024 09:20
It does look and feel more premium than regular Marutis though, and I say this coming from someone who owns an S Cross, it just feels more premium in terms of NVH levels and ride quality. It's not luxury car territory, though.
