@Boom Shiva: Actually, Reva does come with A/C. And I did mention CITY, right? So the traffic density negates the scope of pick-up or acceleration, since everybody moves at snail-pace. And that piddly size is actually a great boon in city traffic. It handles like a go-cart, is ultra-silent, and quite practical for in-city use. In fact, it would've been far more attractive if the Mah. govt. had some sort of no-duty structure for the use of Reva, inside Mumbai.
Cabs and ricks are nice, but not as convenient as your own car.
Here are a few more pointers;
1) If you DO intend to use a cab, please try to drive forward the concept of share-a-cab. More convenient, less expenditure, and saves fuel as well.
2) Apart from making it mandatory to tank up before hitting the "E" mark on the fuel gauge, make sure that you always fill fuel between 5:30-7:00 A.M, or between 9:00-11:00 P.M. This ensures that the fuel density is significantly higher (since fuel expands due to heat, avoid fuelling at afternoons), and you get maximum bang for your buck.
