It's an underrated car for a reason. Don't get me wrong it's a brilliant car. Honestly one of the best in the segment. Although the engine is excellent but it is highly underpowered for highway use in terms of torque numbers specifically. Horsepower is pretty much bang on. The problem with this car is , it's a fairly robust built car with good safety and with all of that comes extra weight and 145nm is just not enough for a car that weighs close to 1600 KG with all on board. It makes this Car very lethargic to overtake from 60 to 80 or from 80 to 100 KMPH. Which makes it very unsafe as you have to time your overtakes perfectly. what does Car needs is at least 180 to 200nm of torque, power doesn't need to change as it's quite enough. THEY ARE NOT WRONG WHEN THEY SAY FAST/QUICK CAR IS ALWAYS THE SAFEST.
@@anukoolsharma9943 compared to NA dude, on highway you need to down shift and rev the motor to oblivion to overtake from 80 kmph 🤦🏻♂️ You don't have to do it on venue,sonet,taigun,slavia,kushaq,virtus,nexon,3XO, basalt, c3, aura (old 1l turbo). Thats my point, a 4 cylinder NA motor has its power higher up rev range but a small turbo 3pot motor has 80% of torque under 4k rpm which is much relaxing to drive. You don't have to constantly shift the gearbox like the fast and furious movies.
In city, turbo engine sucks, but elevate don't ask for frequent gear shift. It is smooth to drive. Comparing it with turbo is justified. I have driven creta seltos NA manual. Both are dull in comparison. Elevate manual is best in NA category.
@@anukoolsharma9943 if one is filthy rich they can manage 2 cars on for city other for highway but at this price seg no one is catering to filthy rich. Secondly you are absolutely wrong about turbo cars being bad in city, used to be the case an early days of small turbos today any 1L or 1.2L turbo better in every single circumstance. Non turbo engines are usually larger vs turbo for same power figures which lets them extract more mileage if driven with a normal foot. DAYS OF NA ARE OVER, GDI TURBOS ARE BEATING NA AT EVERYTHING POWER,MILEAGE, EASE OF USE, HIGHWAY MANNERS. Soon Honda will succumb to this or will die a slow death (which we are clearly witnessing)
@@anilkumar-dh9fc 1L turbos get that @100kmph, nothing new about it, also they have more torque which is important for daily driving unlike the horsepower number is which only important for flexing.
@@dallomarde5756 if you want to talk about ease of driving kushaq 1L is much better with its 175nm vs 140nm of the honda but honda is a bigger and luxurious car. But personally I will trade luxury for better driving and ease ofhighway drivability any day. Honda's engine is excellent but extremely outdated and both honda and honda fans are reluctant to admit it. Honda needs to bring a Turbo ivtec in india (it's not like you don't have it)

No issue of power at all in manual. Way better power than all NA competitors. You only need to down shift in some cases and that only in hills

Also NA 1.5 is any day better than 1.0 or 1.2 turbo

How's kushaq in Hill's?

App jis Car mai Beth kar chala rahe ho, woh car ka review do
@@binoysaikia108 it’s already there on my channel 😁
Khud to Kushaq chala rae ho?
It depends on your preferences and the qualities you want in a car. I decided on a Kushaq because I wanted a car with more performance. 😁
