Livin g with Liva.....

After lots of ifs & buts, went into buying a lovely ultramarine blue LIVA diesel..... I truly have made the right choice....... recently I took her for a long ride with my family across the western ghats... it was indeed a splendid ride & experience. The ABS & Turning stability was so good it made the journey pretty much comfortable. Along the hilly terrains the milage was on avg 22 km/l and on highway it went upto 24km/l (on AC)...  Look and Style: Its indeed a head turner, the smiley look & ultramarine blue color matches in toto.    Comfort: Though the vehicle weighs a little less than other cars of the same range, ABS & EBD system provides good stability across corners even at high speed....   Pickup: Toyotas credibility lies in its Heart What an power full & efficient engine with ease it cruised up the hill in third gear.... and the sense of confidence we get as we overtake is awsome   Mileage: With all this power comes efficiency.....In tier II city (Manipal) milage comes to around 19/20 km/L. Along the hilly terrains the milage was on avg 22 km/l and on highway it went upto 24km/l (on AC)...   Best Features: Ample space for all passengers, Powerfull & Efficient engine, good control on high speeds, very good fuel efficiency (the need of time).....good boot space too   Needs to improve: Pretty much a need to cut down the interior noise..... the brand new vehicle sounds more like a three year old diesel car ..... Lack of some features in Diesel variant such as rear wiper, chrome grill, (front & rear) etc......   Overall Experience: Value for money..... its a good choice for comfort, power, space & style... on the whole.. happily living with LIVA   Look and Style   Comfort   Pickup   Mileage   Best Features   Needs to improve   Overall Experience
