Toyota Etios Liva
₹ 5.68 Lakh Onwards
I took Etios Liva Drive
I have test driven this car on 02-07-2011. It's very smooth N driver friendly. I drove the car in fourth gear at less than 10KMPH with out any jerk. This I test to see how the engine is behaving at low speeds in higher gears. The looks from the front are faboulus. It looks like SUV from front. Back looks are also excellent. The boot is of good space. Ingress and outgress is very comfortable due to almost 90 degree opening of doors.
But the iteriors are compramise. The dash board, seats looks cheap. They are not impressive. Back seat is almost vertical. Doesn't give comfort. I felt I am sitting on a cheap computer chair. And main thing is the drivers visibility is resticted for shorter people due to central panel. Only taller people may be 6feet and above may feel comfortable. I am 5 feet 3 inche I felt my vision is restricted due to the central panel.
Full marks to engine, gear box, outer looks and shape.
Only 40/100 for interior.
