Halogen headlights are adhered to deliver magnificent looks. To add to the looks, it is accompanied by dual beam headlamps in black finish. Honeycomb air-breather system at the bottom adds to the character. Looks are carried out on to the side profile with B-pillar design. Character lines do impose sporty looks that are enhanced by 15" steel wheels under full covers. Body colored ORVMs (Outside Rear View Mirror) with turn indicators and neatly trimmed door handles are dramatic. Heat insulating side and rear mirrors further enhances the overall look.

Vehicle stands on 15" alloy tubeless radial wheels that are dressed with the disc and drum brake systems at front and rear wheels respectively. ABS is provided to further enhance the braking mechanism.

If you are looking for a super stylish hatchback with exceptional performance, then this is the model for you. But, if you prefer one with best in class mileage without spending more, then its best to look elsewhere.
