BHPian broke_enthu27<\/strong> recently shared this with other enthusiasts.<\/p>\n I clocked 10k in around 6 months and I am still happy with the car. The Goodyear tyres can be painfully delicate when driven over rough terrain. Be careful while driving among pointy rocks, got myself a sidewall tear that way.<\/p>\n Performance wise, I still enjoy redlining here and there. The downshift during overtaking is so sporty and the acceleration at the lower gears let\u2019s you get away from a cluster quite quickly.<\/p>\n Fuel efficiency has gone up significantly after the second service. Even with a mix of heavy footed driving and light footed, I get a mileage of somewhere around 18.5 Km\/lit. I have done half a dozen full tank to full tank highway runs between Hyderabad to Bangalore where I have constantly got 18.5 Km\/lit with some enthusiastic driving.<\/p>\n I did a full tank Hyderabad city run and got about 13.2 Km\/lit, which is more than my expectation. Drove the vehicle after the third service and she\u2019s still smooth and lovely.<\/p>\n I did the Chikmagalur ghats and the western ghats Tadai uphill ghat and the car did the former quite effortlessly. But it doesn\u2019t was quite unpredictable sometimes on the Tadai western ghat roads. You\u2019re doing a steep uphill on 2nd gear at 25 Km\/hr or less and suddenly the RPM goes above 4K\/5k and the car pulls like possessed and you\u2019re now doing 60. I slowed down by removing the foot off the gas because I was scared to apply breaks on steep uphill ghats. I had to downshift to the first gear sometimes when the curve and steepness were too much.<\/p>\n Overall, it\u2019s done an exceptional job. Scraped at least half a dozen times in these 10000 kms but nothing too serious. Also Goodyear tyres have great dry and wet grips, great breaking performance but they are not durable at all. So if you have a budget change them when new.<\/p>\n Check out BHPian comments for more insights and information.<\/p>\n10k kms\/Third free service update:<\/h2>\n
