Ya'll Nibbiars remember had a santro. That was one of the early success of the Hyundai runaway model. And its was in the market for almost 14 years. But only seen hugh number in the year 2000. And after that already taken over the Maruti Zen which was a market leader since 1994 in that market segment's.

Ya'll Nibbiars the current Santro is bad, not comfortable, Small, outdated and with less features when compared to the cometitor's. And even the looks remind's of the Chevrolet Saprk.

Yes santro was huge success. Our family doctor had bought matiz which some argue was also as reliable.

Ya'll Nibbiars the Daewoo motors was taken over by the GM. And then even that plat was shut down. But was a good car. And later the Opel was phased out due to the HM problems and for the entry of the orther's brand's.

Ya'll Nibbiars when the first indica was launched in the same year as the santro. It was not a runaway success like the Hyundai. And faced quality problems, engine problems, delayed deliveries and canceled orders. And until the V2 came with the a high budget for advertisement and marketing. But the delays in launching of the Vista again aged the basic first generation even more and unable to keep up with the technology made a bad Image for the Tata motors.

Tata has come a long way since than. Tata entered into a different league since the launch of Tiago. Before Tiago, Tata's car were bellow par. From Tiago onward, it is at the par with the best. The only area where Tata legs behind a bit is petrol engine. They will catch up in that as well. Tata's sale in Feb 21 increased over 100% on yoy badis. This is the testimony of improving quality of Tata vehicles. They are dimply unmatched in build quality and safety.

Ya'll Nibbiars I tested all the cars in that range.

1. The Santro is just a worst vehicle currently just a Medicare performance.

2 . The I 10 Nios is good but lacks when compared to the competitor's.

3 . The Wagnr is still good and spacious but the service network waiting is just.

4 . Swift is good in mechanical aspect and nothing is smooth as the swift but lacks in the safety and service time is just to much.

5 . Tigao you can say reset than me.

Ya'll Nibbiars the cost of spare parts for Maruti and Tata is lowest, even Honda spare parts cost less but Hyundai prices for the spare parts are sky Rocketing. Even jeep spare parts cost less than the Hyundai. What is happening to the HMIL?. Are they just trying to capitalize their 2 nd lead in the market by looting consumer?. Hyundai is taking customer for a ride.

Currently, Tata offers best value for money package. so far as passenger vehicle is concern, their vehicles are rugged , they offers good instrumentation level, they offer best music system and they offers best safety. They are number one in build quality. If you buy a Tata vehicle, you can easily use it for more than 2 lakh kilometre. Tata is undoubtedly number one value for money.

Ya'll Nibbiars the major problem for the Hyundai is their products range in the lower range are now lacking. And even Suzuki vehicles are much better than the Hyundai in that range and even Honda and Tata are giving them such a tough competition that they are just hanging with the names. Well the santro is probably just a mirror image of it's predecessor's.

Ya'll Nibbiars but no one is able to match the smoothness of the swift. No one even Honda, Hyundai or even tata is manage to match it's smoothness. Even if i take out the swift in the safety strip can't name it in the machinations department's.

Ya'll Nibbiars even better than the safari. And much better than the MG and more spacious than the Hyundai Creta. The creta is just costly.

Ya'll Nibbiars india can be the third largest automobile market at this rate. And surely can keep this pace. But we need more domestic car manufacturers. More brands need to surface. Need the reentry of the HM, PAL, Standard, Maruti and new Indian brand's.

Toyota, Ford, Volkswagen breaking bangles and crying with their 1-2% market share, all that MNC paisa but no use.
