Hi TAIgers,
I am looking for a purchasing a car for my parents. I may go for it during the month of March.
Currently we have a second hand dzire (Petrol) with 1.4 L KM on odo. The car is not creating lots and lots of problem so now we are thinking of going for new car for my dad.
The requirements are just that it should be spacious comfortable car which can go for about lakh of KMs.
fuel Type should be petrol and compliant with future emission regulations.
5 seater with decent boot space
Easy ingress
We have owned cars from Tata and Maruti stable. from M800, WagonR, Indigo, Storme etc.
The car should be VFM and should not be too expensive.
The cars that first come to my mind are
Zest RT XMS
BOLT RT XT
XCENT
FIGO
Strictly no Wagon R or Ritz.
No SWIFT OR DZIRE as they are pretty expensive for what they offer.
i20, and baleno too seem to be costly for our budget.
No idea about Polo and Punto and Etios.
I am not looking for used car.
May look at Zica and KUV100 but the KUV interiors have put me off. I detest the center console with piston handbrake. Its not egronomically placed.
However final decision will be taken by Dad so will ask him to TD all the cars mentioned in the above post.
You comments and suggestions are welcome.
Since I am looking for petrol cars and Tata cars are being shorlisted. I need to know how Revotron behaves on Zest and Bolt. I know the Qjet is great engine and it is tried and test so I will simply go ahead if Diesel is option he chooses. I believe the Revotron is great engine for sedate driving but still would like your comments on the same.
