My Opinion and Review

Well, as we have seen till now about the specs,features and everything we have come to a conclusion that this car at its own price is quite value for money as in the end we need a car to go from one place to another which it fulfill's and as for the safety rating if we drive while following all the rules we could avoid road-accidents.

The looks and design of this car is also quite nice after the facelift version and in India it has its own fan base.

For people who just want to drive from one place to another and which are not quite good with the gear shifting and clutch , they can go for the AMT version. Also the service network of Renault is also quite good so it would be quite easily servicable.

People who are looking for a small car with good looks and features and the first-time car buyers should purchase their car.

At the end , only you will have to drive this car so try taking test drive and check about other cars available then only buy the car which is suitable for your purpose.
