Yup... Its a wake up call all right...
The
gearbox is not at all perfect, but will get better after sometime...
But, the gear ratios, i feel are the best in any hatch... it just matches the engine nature superbly... I had a ride to the hills last week, and the car pulled steep inclines in
fourth gear
, at speeds of 40 around... (Where the roads were good)
I was really surprised by the way in which the car handled the hills... We had
7 people in the car including 1 kid. and climbing the inclines in fourth gear was something i never expected...
Only other disadvantage i felt is that the front right A piller is a bit too thick to take the corners aggressively... Other than these two small disadvantages, am totally in love with the car...
