Default Getz Prime 1.5 Crdi

Hey all,

Got my Getz crdi last week (red)....so far so good....
I guess most of the reviews have proven to be more or less accurate.
The engine is absolutely wonderful!!! Truly amazing pickup, but as expected while making the vehicle choice, the brakes are'nt anything to write home about.

Disappointing that Hyundai didnt load the vehicle with certain basic features that you expect when you pay 6.65lacs.....no fog lamps, no rear spoiler, no cigar lighter, no rear wiper, no rear defogger....huh..the list goes on...i mean i have all these things in my Santro

When driving in bumper to bumper traffic...the initial lag caused due to the VGT gets a little frustrating at times...

But then again....its all forgiven when you go past that 2000 rpm mark..coz then "You really feel like god"

FE: Done about 1000 kms so far (only in city & without a/c) and it gives me about 13...i hope i that stretches to atleast 15 after servicing and oil change.

I had to chose between the swift ZDi and the Getz crdi....the swift was 70k cheaper and fully loaded....but felt really underpowered beyond speeds of 60km/hr.....in the end am glad i chose the getz coz the car can be loaded but the engine cannot be changed!
