Volkswagen Virtus Pros

• A ‘complete’ car that just might bring some love back to sedans
• Classy exterior \u0026 interior styling, along with solid build quality
• Cabin has good legroom on offer, supportive seats, perfect ergonomics \u0026 enough storage
• 521-liter boot is the largest in its segment (along with the Slavia’s)
• 148 BHP engine makes the Virtus among the most fun-to-drive sedans in the segment
• Sporty 1.0L \u0026 1.5L turbo-petrols are mated to smooth transmissions
• Sorted suspension offers a balanced ride \u0026 handling package
• 5-star rating in the Global NCAP crash tests. Safety features include 6 airbags, ESC, 3-point seatbelts for all, electronic differential lock, brake disc wiping, multi-collision brake and more
• Features like active cylinder tech, ventilated seats, sunroof, wireless Android Auto and CarPlay, auto headlamps \u0026 wipers etc.
• 6-year extended warranty \u0026 4-year all-inclusive service packages available

Volkswagen Virtus Cons

• No 1.5L diesel is a major disadvantage in a world where petrol costs over 100 bucks / litre
• DQ200 DSG transmission has a history of poor reliability \u0026 breakdowns in India
• No MT option available with the 1.5L petrol. The Slavia offers this combination, as does the City
• Backseat better for 2 healthy adults and a child, rather than 3 adults
• Lovely 1.5L TSI is only available on the top variant. Should have been there in the mid-trim too
• Interior quality doesn’t feel up to oldschool VW standards. Body-coloured interior highlights are polarising too
• Missing some features such as a subwoofer, driving modes (sport), 360-degree camera \u0026 electric driver’s seat adjustment
• Turbo-petrols are very sensitive to driving style. FE will drop drastically when you drive hard
• VW’s after-sales service can be a hit or miss. The brand’s long-term reliability can be patchy as well
• Slavia’s ‘clever’ touches are missing = no spot on top of the dashboard to place a deity, no smartphone holders on the front seatbacks, no ticket clip on the windshield, no elastic band in the doorpad to keep items in place, or even something as simple as the small reflective tapes on the doors

18.959 -> just for the sake of it.

19.959 -> It's a resale car,

20.959 -> even after 4 years,

21.959 -> they'll sell it.

22.959 -> When I...

23.959 -> This is available in Germany and many other countries

24.959 -> You've seen such concerns. 8 00:00:25,085 --> 00:00:24,959 Right, right.

25.959 -> At the age of 28,

26.959 -> I'll say,

27.959 -> it's a very hard-earned money.

28.959 -> It's very difficult

29.959 -> Mm-hmm.

29.978 -> to earn money in India.

30.959 -> I agree with that.

31.959 -> That's a manta.

32.733 -> Absolutely.

32.959 -> That's a manta.

33.1 -> So, you ignored this factor, right? 20 00:00:33,959 --> 00:00:33,100 That's a manta.

33.959 -> Friends,

34.959 -> after uploading videos

35.959 -> on the Slavia 1.0,

36.959 -> I personally would say

38.959 -> that I'm very bored.

39.959 -> So, today,

40.959 -> I've caught a friend of mine

41.959 -> who has a 1.0 Virtus.

43.959 -> And on my channel,

45.959 -> no doubt,

46.959 -> there's a drive review of 1.0

48.959 -> and a walkaround of 1.0

50.959 -> and a walkaround of both 1.5

52.959 -> which you've given a lot of love.

54.959 -> And the walkaround of Kochi,

55.959 -> which was launched recently,

57.959 -> in which some colours were launched,

59.959 -> 1.5 MT was launched,

60.959 -> there's a review of that too.

61.959 -> You've liked it a lot.

63.959 -> The thing is,

64.959 -> ownership review is important

66.959 -> because,

67.959 -> these cars,

68.959 -> I say it again and again,

69.959 -> if you want to buy something

71.959 -> other than a mid-size SUV,

72.959 -> then these cars are

74.959 -> perfect value for money.

75.959 -> And,

76.959 -> he has,

77.959 -> his name is Sukh.

78.959 -> Sukh, please introduce yourself.

79.959 -> Hiya!

80.959 -> Hi, I'm Sukhpreet Singh. I'm working as a media professional

81.959 -> What's your profession?

84.907 -> Hello! 58 00:01:24,907 --> 00:01:21,959 in a digital marketing firm.

86.907 -> I work in ad films and music video shooting.

89.907 -> This is my Virtus. I've clocked around 11,000 km in 9-10 months.

95.791 -> And Sukh, I have a few questions for you, and I'm sure that these

100.831 -> questions will help the current buyers who are driving the car

104.791 -> and those who want to buy this car, because this segment has

107.671 -> been heated up again with the refreshments of the Verna and Honda

110.551 -> City

110.791 -> So I'm sure that your insights will be very helpful. So without

110.945 -> It's a 68 00:01:54,124 --> 00:01:50,945 wasting any time, let's get started

114.124 -> You

115.791 -> Sukh, I'll ask a question in Punjabi, first of all. I know it

120.341 -> will be easy Punjabi, everyone will know

122.791 -> People have asked, which car is this? Mahindra Thar, XUV700,

127.791 -> Scorpio, etc. Why did you buy this car?

132.494 -> No. Actually, I made all the decisions on my own.

136.494 -> This is why I chose this car.

139.494 -> Because whatever was available in the market, they couldn't meet

142.827 -> my requirements.

143.494 -> So there were some bits and pieces which were missing in those

146.263 -> cars.

146.494 -> So this is why I went for Volkswagen only.

148.424 -> I am answering all the important questions one by one.

151.462 -> What was your budget and which variant is this and why did you

155.427 -> choose this variant?

157.013 -> First of all, if we talk about the car, this is the Comfortline

160.431 -> variant.

160.693 -> It's the most basic model, it doesn't have anything below that.

163.573 -> This car cost me 12,50,000 INR at that time.

168.173 -> All the offers, all the exchange offers.

170.813 -> It cost me 12,50,000 INR.

172.493 -> But my budget was around 10,00,000 INR.

175.493 -> Because I purchased the car last year and at that time I was

178.873 -> 28 years old.

179.653 -> And it's only been 5 years since I started working.

182.413 -> And in 5 years, buying a car is already a task.

185.053 -> So I had thought of a budget of 10,00,000 INR, that I can't go

187.993 -> above that.

188.413 -> But I didn't get any other car.

190.253 -> And this car was costing around 2.5-3,00,000 INR.

193.653 -> So I had to increase my budget.

195.693 -> I didn't leave the car, I left my budget and increased the budget

198.267 -> so that I could get this car.

200.264 -> Sukh, before I ask the next question, I want to ask that in 12.50,

205.562 -> people like you who buy Nexon XUV300 take SUVs under 4 meters. 104 00:03:30,104 --> 00:03:30,018 Later.

210.104 -> Why didn't you go that way? Because if we consider safety as

214.129 -> a parameter, then those cars do this factor, so what was your

218.153 -> thought process?

219.248 -> The first thing was my need. As I told you, I work in film making,

223.503 -> so I have a lot of luggage.

225.488 -> So to carry the luggage, my need was a sedan.

228.688 -> So in the small SUV that comes in the market, we can accommodate

232.783 -> the luggage somehow.

233.728 -> But the usage of the boot is very high with us.

237.408 -> To open and close the boot again and again.

239.648 -> And in my budget, the Nexon that was coming, it didn't have that

243.264 -> electronic button at the back, which I checked.

245.488 -> So that was a deal breaker for me, because opening the boot again

248.473 -> and again with the key didn't feel right for me.

250.768 -> And that's why I left the Nexon.

252.928 -> And then I drove the XUV300 car.

256.368 -> And apart from this car, there was the only car which I loved.

259.248 -> I could have taken that car, but it also had a downside, the

262.507 -> boot space.

263.008 -> If the boot space was good, then I would have had that car, because

266.315 -> obviously I was getting it in diesel.

267.968 -> And I was also getting almost all the features that I wanted.

271.168 -> So that's why I left that car, and the rest, the Korean brand

274.6 -> is here, so you know about it.

276.505 -> That perfectly makes sense

278.505 -> So Sukh, my second question was

280.505 -> Which cars did you consider?

282.505 -> Although I have already asked you

284.505 -> Nexon RX-UV 300

286.505 -> But again, you must have shortlisted

288.505 -> some other cars, even in Sedans

290.505 -> So which cars were they and why did you reject them?

292.807 -> Other than that, a major car in sedans is the Honda City, which

296.967 -> everyone knows about.

297.927 -> Honda City 5th Gen was also there at that time.

300.247 -> I went to try that, I also took a test drive of it.

303.767 -> My criteria was that the power of the engine was nothing.

307.207 -> Because most of my usage is of the city and sometimes on the

310.772 -> highway.

311.047 -> So I wanted to drive the car that I liked driving.

314.007 -> Because even before that, I used to own a Volkswagen.

316.567 -> So I thought, let's try the Honda City once, because that's a

319.515 -> good product.

320.807 -> I should go and try to test drive that as well.

330.087 -> I was feeling like I was sitting in someone else's car.

332.487 -> I couldn't connect with that car.

334.007 -> The connection that we feel with Volkswagen, that couldn't happen.

337.447 -> And I did a good long test drive.

339.207 -> It wasn't like I drove a little and stopped the car.

341.127 -> Okay, I tried to like it.

343.527 -> If I like it, then I can buy that car.

345.927 -> But it didn't suit me.

347.687 -> You can even say that it's cheaper.

349.847 -> Because the things you get in the 15 lakh variant, we get in

353.036 -> 13 lakh.

353.527 -> But still, I left it.

355.047 -> And apart from that, I did a test drive of the Ciaz.

357.847 -> So apart from that, I did a test drive of the Ciaz.

360.807 -> So this might seem surprising to you.

363.847 -> But the Ciaz was much better to drive than the Honda City.

366.967 -> I totally loved that car.

368.567 -> But still, they consider it as an inferior product.

372.007 -> There is a little concern about safety.

373.527 -> It's of build quality.

374.807 -> And then the seats were hard.

376.167 -> So I drove that car just to see it.

378.647 -> Otherwise, I had no plan to buy that car.

380.247 -> Apart from that, there was a Verna.

382.487 -> The one in the back.

383.207 -> Not the 2023.

384.247 -> So I left that car for two reasons.

386.967 -> Because I saw its reviews.

388.327 -> People were saying that the back is not that comfortable.

390.487 -> And it's not very comfortable on long drives either.

393.367 -> And after that, safety was a bigger concern.

395.767 -> So these were the two major points because of which I didn't

398.647 -> even do a test drive.

399.847 -> Because the road you don't want to go on, you have to ask for

402.997 -> the road.

403.447 -> You have to ask for the road.

405.127 -> So there was a reason that I rejected those cars.

408.807 -> And then I drove the XUV300.

410.407 -> I have already told you the reason for that.

412.771 -> I forgot to ask you that you have a Virtus in your family, what

416.271 -> other cars you have driven in your family?

418.271 -> And do you have any other existing car?

421.343 -> So before this we were Maruti's users

424.643 -> First was Alto in 2011

426.143 -> After that in 2016 we bought WagonR VXI

429.643 -> After that I purchased last to last year

433.643 -> The Vento

434.643 -> That was 2011 1.6 TDI

437.143 -> I bought it used and drove 1.25 lakh km

439.643 -> At that time my budget was 3 lakh rupees

441.643 -> And I wanted a sedan

442.643 -> All my needs were the same

443.643 -> So I had experience with Polo 1.5 as well

447.143 -> Which is 2016 model

448.643 -> Has driven more than 2 lakh km

450.943 -> And it was that car which made me believe

453.943 -> That Volkswagen is such a good brand

455.943 -> So after that I bought Vento

459.943 -> It was a second owner car

461.943 -> Driven more

462.943 -> It started having problems

463.943 -> Drove 9-10 thousand km

464.943 -> But after that it was so expensive

466.943 -> That I thought let's take it out

467.943 -> And then buy a new one

468.943 -> So this car is a WagonR for now

471.943 -> Perfectly makes sense 216 00:07:53,723 --> 00:07:53,673 it's

474.28 -> Ok, next question. You have taken Virtus. You have ignored some

478.558 -> a 219 00:07:58,558 --> 00:07:53,673 things, like resale is a big factor.

481.28 -> Great.

481.3 -> Fuel efficiency of 1.0 in the city is also average, 8 to 10, 222 00:08:05,923 --> 00:07:53,673 in heavy traffic 11 to 13, if the traffic is light from where

485.923 -> we come. 224 00:08:10,566 --> 00:07:53,673 good

490.566 -> idea

491.28 -> So these two concerns you ignored and then you bought Virtus.

495.209 -> to 228 00:08:15,209 --> 00:07:53,673 Is that so?

496.505 -> Yes, because when I was driving the Vento, I was getting an average

500.747 -> of Rs. 12 for the diesel

502.705 -> and at that time I was a heavy footer driver

504.705 -> but even after that, I had to ignore the mileage because I didn't

508.069 -> have any other option

509.105 -> I had the option for the diesel in the Vernac

511.105 -> I could have gotten that car in the same budget

513.105 -> and everything was the same, I would have got the diesel in that

516.105 -> but I still dropped that

518.105 -> that the saving of fuel is for later

520.105 -> let's save for life first

522.105 -> so that's the reason I opted for this car

524.105 -> I am getting around Rs. 11-12, that's fine enough for me

528.398 -> Many people go for Creta and cars like Seltos just for the sake

531.865 -> of it.

532.398 -> There is a resale, they will sell it even after 4 years.

532.904 -> You

533.748 -> 4 years

535.267 -> Right, right, right. 248 00:08:56,398 --> 00:08:52,904 Ready?

537.258 -> You have also seen such concerns.

538.398 -> At the age of 28, I will say it's a very hard earned money.

541.398 -> Mm-hmm.

541.757 -> It is very difficult to earn money in India, I agree.

543.805 -> You 254 00:09:04,398 --> 00:09:02,084 OK.

544.398 -> So you ignored this factor, right?

546.944 -> At that time, when I went to sell the Bento, it was sold at a

551.111 -> very bad price

551.944 -> because it was a second owner, a painter, etc.

553.944 -> You know what happens with a second hand car in the market.

556.944 -> Because of that, I had a fear in my mind that I will buy a Honda

560.709 -> City.

560.944 -> If I have to sell it, the money will be good.

563.944 -> Then I thought that I am buying a car worth 13 lakhs.

566.944 -> People are buying this car for 18 lakhs.

569.944 -> They are spending 4 to 5 more lakhs on this car.

574.944 -> Then I can definitely do it.

577.944 -> So people are paying happily for the GT up to Rs. 2.2 lakhs.

581.065 -> Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're paying 22 lakhs for that.

583.332 -> So I thought that if they can bear that and you know, if they

586.474 -> buy a top model,

587.372 -> their money breaks more because it doesn't matter that much in

590.547 -> the second-hand market.

591.412 -> So because of that, I thought that the rest of the people are

593.328 -> buying it, I'm buying it too.

594.212 -> We'll see what happens later.

595.812 -> Sukh is quite mature in 28.

597.94 -> One very important thing, 5 stars, 5 stars.

605.045 -> Good, right?

605.545 -> Yeah, that's really good.

606.545 -> Good feeling.

607.045 -> Good feeling. We were already assured that this is going to be

610.292 -> a 5-star car.

611.22 -> Taigun and he had already given us a shirt, but still, on paper,

614.612 -> now these cars are 5-stars, so it feels really good.

617.22 -> So it feels really good.

617.302 -> Yeah.

617.802 -> Actually, when I got this rating, I was very happy.

620.542 -> Because it was like a marriage proposal.

623.262 -> So I posted about it.

626.102 -> And it's a good thing to get a 5-star rating, it's such a big

629.089 -> thing for a brand.

629.942 -> And that too, a brand that has to struggle a lot to survive.

634.66 -> Yeah.

636.314 -> Sukh, the question that I had written, I will not pull it,

639.314 -> the question was that why did you take Virtus instead of Taigun,

642.314 -> but again, we have discussed that question,

644.314 -> that why didn't you go for a mid-size SUV or compact SUV,

648.314 -> so I don't want to stretch it.

650.314 -> I want to know that when you drive a car in the city,

653.314 -> its comfort and your family, how do they find the comfort of

657.6 -> this car,

658.314 -> because the seats are also on the firm side,

660.314 -> and Virtus has a particular suspension on the little harder side

663.981 -> as compared to Slavia.

665.314 -> So, how is the comfort in the city?

667.904 -> Talking about suspension, it's on stiffer side but it's not so

671.285 -> stiff that it can't handle our road here.

673.744 -> If there are bigger potholes, it can easily get out of there,

676.651 -> there's not much of a problem.

678.104 -> Because there are some other cars as well, because I drive Brezza

680.933 -> as well, it's in my office, 2020.

682.584 -> So its suspension is on stiffer side, so I think this is a very

686.119 -> sweet spot.

686.624 -> So there's not much of a problem because of this.

688.984 -> Yes, it's sweet, I feel that, my family, they might not be that

692.832 -> observant, they might have never told me.

694.904 -> But I feel that the seats of Vento, which I used to drive 10

697.944 -> years ago, were more comfortable than this.

699.464 -> So there's a little bit of tiredness on long distances, apart

701.742 -> from that, it has fabric seats.

702.984 -> I guess, if leather seats come, then foam will be extra added

705.567 -> on, maybe it'll be a little better than that.

707.504 -> But comfort is decent, I won't say that it's good, it's good

710.79 -> enough.

711.087 -> There is concern about 5 passengers. I have seen many people

714.85 -> bashing Taigun that it is for 4 passengers.

717.587 -> I keep explaining that they have given bucket seats at the back

721.016 -> so that 2 people can sit with super-duper comfort.

723.587 -> What is the scene of 5 in this? 330 00:12:05,549 --> 00:12:04,132 Did you?

725.549 -> 5 people, my experience has been good, no one has complained

729.78 -> so far

730.549 -> Only thing is, if a heavy person sits, the bucket seat's sides

736.196 -> are said to be wider

738.549 -> Especially from the back, so that's the only thing I'm concerned

742.216 -> about

742.549 -> Otherwise, everything else is fine

744.044 -> I do agree, I have T-Roc and Slavia in my house, Slavia easily

749.089 -> accommodates 5, T-Roc doesn't, again the reason is lesser width

753.009 -> and bucket seats, so next question Sukh

756.65 -> 95 octane or any other petrol is used

760.15 -> because in turbo engines like 1.0 and 1.5

763.15 -> it is highly recommended to use 95 octane

766.15 -> like XP95 or Shell

768.15 -> So what rules are you following for your car?

770.723 -> I started with normal fuel but after some time, I shifted to

777.581 -> XP95 only

778.723 -> because what I realised is that when I use normal fuel, the car

783.369 -> feels sluggish

784.083 -> and then I feel that the mileage of 1-1.5 km is also less

787.843 -> so many people use normal fuel but I strictly use XP95 because

792.323 -> it is recommended

793.443 -> and I don't want the car to have any problems in the long run

795.777 -> because I want to drive it for a long time

797.443 -> that is why I am using XP95 only, whether it is Indian Oil or

801.774 -> HP

802.083 -> I liked HP's Power Petrol better

805.283 -> although Reliance's Petrol, I don't know how much octane it has,

808.033 -> but it also performs well

809.283 -> If I didn't get the XP, I would have preferred Airline C.

812.455 -> Nice petrol has been worked pretty well, performance is the same.

816.083 -> Sukh, there were a lot of concerns about the A.C.

820.083 -> There has been a lot of discussion and there have been two updates

822.683 -> to it.

823.083 -> Both the updates have been done in my cars.

825.083 -> Although I didn't tell them, but both the updates have been done

828.083 -> because they have been instructed from behind.

830.083 -> You have driven a car for 11,000 km, you live in Punjab, it is

833.378 -> a hot state.

834.083 -> So how is the A.C. in your car?

836.083 -> Have you ever felt that, like you are a Wagoner, you also drive

841.283 -> a Brezza.

842.083 -> Mm-hmm.

842.105 -> So in comparison to that, did you find any issue in the A.C.?

845.463 -> you

845.48 -> In AC, it trips quickly. That's the only thing.

849.48 -> There's no shortage of cooling.

851.48 -> If it trips, when the temperature is around 40-44 degrees,

857.48 -> it doesn't cool down or chill the room.

861.48 -> Otherwise, it was pretty fine.

863.48 -> It doesn't chill.

865.48 -> And it has a manual AC, so I keep it on the upper side.

869.48 -> I don't keep it on full.

870.48 -> Because when it cools, it cools down even more.

872.48 -> You can call it a hit or miss.

874.48 -> But still, I'm okay with this.

876.48 -> It is decent enough.

877.48 -> It wasn't that bad in the beginning.

879.48 -> But after that, I didn't tell them to update it.

882.48 -> I don't know if they did or not.

884.48 -> I don't even know.

885.48 -> But AC is running well now.

886.958 -> Sukh, you got both the updates, I got to know that after both

890.413 -> the updates, the feedback I am getting in our groups, the feedback 395 00:14:53,477 --> 00:14:53,017 Yes. 396 00:14:53,601 --> 00:14:53,017 is very positive.

893.601 -> Yes.

894.398 -> A lot of their bashers were also going to change the car because 399 00:14:58,162 --> 00:14:54,603 of the AC, they have personally messaged me.

898.162 -> What?

900.478 -> So just get assured that you have got both the updates from Lally

905.604 -> Motors.

905.998 -> Sukh, I want to know that...

909.892 -> Performance in the hills, because 1.0 what is happening here,

913.415 -> people are looking at CC, but not NM, TORQ or BHP, I know how

918.349 -> this car performs in the hills, but if you have taken it somewhere,

922.93 -> then how is the performance, does it feel underpowered, otherwise

926.454 -> also with 5 members you may feel that it is underpowered, but

930.683 -> specifically I feel that you have taken this car in the hills,

934.917 -> So, unfortunately, I haven't got a chance to take it to the hills

938.528 -> yet, but I have done a long drive on the highway with 5 people.

942.417 -> Actually, when we cruise the car, it usually stays between 1200-1500

948.146 -> RPM, but if the speed is high, it goes up to 2000 RPM.

954.917 -> But when it is around 1500-1200 RPM, then I feel that I can't

958.817 -> push it easily without dropping the gear.

961.917 -> Especially when I feel that I need to do a quick overtake because

965.741 -> I have limited time.

966.917 -> Either I will have to wait or I will take it out right now.

969.917 -> So, in that situation, I prefer to stay behind because I feel

973.075 -> that I can't pull it so fast.

974.917 -> Because I have just come from that engine, 1.6 TDI, which people

978.735 -> respect a lot because it has a very good torque.

981.917 -> So, after that, I feel that it would have been better if it had

986.584 -> a little more power.

988.006 -> you

988.883 -> So Sukh, just last two questions.

991.283 -> Have there been any issues so far?

993.283 -> And the next question, which is the last one, I'm asking right 429 00:16:36,053 --> 00:16:33,575 now.

996.053 -> You

996.283 -> If you had a budget of 13 lakhs, or let's say 14 lakhs, because

1000.41 -> it's been a year now,

1001.883 -> which car would you buy?

1002.883 -> Answer the first question.

1004.283 -> Have you faced any issues?

1006.4 -> Talking about issues, I had an issue with the EPC and the check

1010.56 -> engine light

1011.2 -> This issue came when my car was running at 5000 km

1014.2 -> I took that issue to the service center again and again

1018.92 -> I don't know what was the issue, but the service center was also

1023.265 -> clueless

1023.6 -> They opened the injectors and tried it

1026.68 -> But still, there was no difference

1028.68 -> They also tried the software, but there was no difference

1031.24 -> So, that issue came and the car was missing

1034.8 -> It was misfiring? Yes

1036.8 -> So, when that happens, you know that you have bought a new car

1039.859 -> and you feel bad

1040.8 -> But they couldn't find a solution for that

1042.8 -> Till date, there was a problem in winters

1046.8 -> As soon as summer came, there was no problem

1049.8 -> Actually, moisture accumulates in the air sensor

1053.8 -> Moisture picks up and misfires

1055.8 -> I don't know what the technical term is

1058.8 -> So, it was happening because of that

1060.8 -> So, there was no problem in summers and winters

1062.8 -> Apart from that, I didn't face any issue

1064.84 -> Let me give you an update on his issue.

1066.698 -> Recently, you know, I went to get my Polo after the denting painting.

1071.698 -> I discussed his issue there and I got to know that his issue,

1075.898 -> his diagnosis report has gone to Germany.

1079.698 -> Because your particular is not that if it is not solved, they

1083.698 -> have ignored it.

1084.698 -> Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1085.037 -> The status is that they are trying to figure out what has happened

1088.598 -> and why it is happening in winters.

1090.698 -> Great, great.

1091.098 -> So next question is, if you have a budget of 14 lakhs and you

1094.987 -> are in your profession,

1096.098 -> would you look for any other car, like there are some other sedans,

1099.972 -> so please answer.

1100.866 -> No, till date, till 2023, there hasn't been any other car that

1105.239 -> has been able to replace this.

1107.426 -> So, considering all the things, I wouldn't say that this is a

1110.169 -> perfect car,

1110.626 -> that there is no other car in the world that is better than this,

1112.866 -> that obviously never happens.

1113.506 -> And the people who think that they have bought a perfect car,

1116.326 -> they are probably mistaken.

1117.266 -> So, this car is not perfect, but still, whatever my requirements

1120.199 -> are, whatever my needs are, whatever my driving style is,

1122.866 -> there is no better car than this, if I have to buy it again,

1126.786 -> then I can buy this one this time.

1129.026 -> Thank you so much, Sukhi. But again...

1130.853 -> Thank you so much Sukhi. But again, I would like to say that

1132.59 -> these were my points.

1133.648 -> If you feel like sharing anything about this car, because I can

1137.358 -> see your alloys that you have put in the aftermarket. 489 00:19:00,448 --> 00:19:00,151 GG

1140.448 -> Any other thing you feel like telling the viewers that can help

1144.848 -> them, can give them value, anything.

1147.998 -> I am very active on Instagram, so people have a concern about

1154.206 -> the build quality.

1155.758 -> There were a lot of questions before, but now that we have 5

1158.358 -> stars, there are less questions.

1159.358 -> But still, if we press this, the feel is different, which used

1163.891 -> to come in Polo and Vento.

1166.158 -> Then there is a lot of talk about the quality of the interior

1169.746 -> plastic, that they have done cost cutting.

1171.758 -> So, I would say that they have done cost cutting only in those

1175.72 -> parts, so that they don't face any problem.

1178.158 -> Because earlier they had put a thick sheet, now they have put

1181.358 -> a thin sheet.

1182.158 -> But because of that, there is no problem in the build and safety.

1185.838 -> They have taken care of all the new norms, pedestrian safety,

1190.678 -> etc.

1191.118 -> And if we talk about the plastic quality of the interior, I would

1194.238 -> say that is a minor concern.

1195.678 -> So, if there is a sound of a creak at a distance of 10,000 km,

1199.387 -> that too if there is any luggage.

1201.118 -> Now, that should not come. Obviously, if I go to the service

1203.828 -> center, they would do something.

1204.958 -> So, there will be a solution to this, but it is not such a thing

1209.204 -> that I will leave this car and go to another car.

1212.318 -> So, the interior quality is fine, there is no issue as much as

1215.493 -> it is said on the internet.

1216 -> I have thoroughly inspected the interior of this car

1219 -> I have to say that even according to the base

1221 -> Because I always say that I find a difference between the top

1224.857 -> variant and the base in terms of plastic quality

1226 -> But in this particular car, I really liked the plastic quality

1229 -> If you talk about the creak, apart from the AC vents, the knobs

1233.823 -> of the AC vents

1234 -> They do feel a little flimsy

1236 -> But otherwise, I will say that there is nothing like that in 526 00:20:39,571 --> 00:20:39,000 the plastic

1239 -> If you press the plastics of any car hard from every angle

1243 -> I had also reviewed the Creta

1245 -> They had cut the scenes because I didn't want to show that I

1250.588 -> was showing something negative

1251 -> Oh, yeah.

1252.167 -> So these are very small concerns 533 00:20:53,982 --> 00:20:52,167 Thank you. 534 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:52,167 Oh, yeah.

1253 -> They mostly show this by making it bigger 536 00:20:55,982 --> 00:20:52,167 Thank you. 537 00:20:56,982 --> 00:20:52,167 Thank you. 538 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:52,167 Thank you.

1257 -> Because apart from that, you can't talk much negative

1260 -> This is always a concern and this is with every brand

1263 -> Those who don't like Mahindra will show their shortcomings

1266 -> Those who don't like Maruti will show something in the whole 543 00:21:09,750 --> 00:21:09,000 car

1269 -> Definitely.

1270.493 -> So this is a very general thing

1271 -> So it is good that you have given a neutral perspective

1274 -> Indeed. 548 00:21:15,797 --> 00:21:15,455 Indeed.

1275 -> Sukh, I am very thankful that you took out the time and gave

1279.611 -> your inputs to the viewers

1280 -> Good luck with your car and happy miles

1282 -> Thank you so much

1283.993 -> Thank you so much.

1284.065 -> Thank you so much having me on your channel.

1285.065 -> Thank you.

1286.065 -> All right. 557 00:21:27,065 --> 00:21:26,153 See ya. [Powered By Dubverse]
