I would say if they are not giving any discounts, push for faster delivery of vehicles.

I got 0 discount, so I pushed for faster delivery. I booked on 21st and got the car on 26th

BoringGenius

I have a 3phase connection, with each phase having a load of 5KW. I had a survey for charger installation and they said that is sufficient

BoringGenius

I am talking about aveo-x1

BoringGenius

if I remember correctly, the installation charges and router should be free, so i think for that they expect you to take atleast a 3 month plan

BoringGenius

Recently, I paid 10k for 15 months, 100mbps during this aniversary sale.

That comes down to 3.3k for 5 months.

I would still say 2.2k for 5 months is still a good deal, considering I had to pay 10k upfront

Why would you say so, any major issues you faced?

Sierra is also giving 4g sim inbuilt, we don't have to run it on hotspot

Fabric seats, hard to maintain

I booked empowered A, because I travel a lot on highways and ADAS felt like a good to have features, just so to not regret later.

But if we are talking adventure and empowered, i would say go for empowered. For the 1.5L you get

  1. Third screen (personal preference, but I like it)
  2. Ventilated seats ( I would say must have specially in summers)
  3. Powered driver seats with memory ( good to have it multiple people drive it)
  4. Air Purifier ( nice to have it you are major running is in city traffic)
  5. Booster headlamp ( haven't tried it so can't comment, but if it works the way they claim it works then good for night highway rides)
  6. Dual zone A/C (definitely worth having)
  7. Leatherette interiors ( definitely prefer it over fabric seats, but sadly can't have seat covers installed)
  8. Rest everything is good to have features imo, but not game changing

I would say for the 1.5L that you would be paying, it's worth the upgrade.

But if you are already stretched on budget, then I would go with adventure, but definitely have seat covers installed

BoringGenius

Regarding ventilated seats, I disagree with you. Once you start using them you can't stop. Especially in summers. I am from Hyderabad and with the heats in the southern states I would say it is a pretty nice feature. But I haven't been to Pune much though

BoringGenius

There is no clarity on what the slabs will be post 31st December, but looking at other states, there is a high probability for 20L-30L it'll be around 8-10%

BoringGenius

Didn't like it much

BoringGenius

Any other decent racing game you would suggest, not a fan of legends

BoringGenius

Where would you guys suggest buying pre-owned cars from?

BoringGenius

Nah, rear is too cramped for me

BoringGenius

It's way out of the budget i wanna be spending

BoringGenius

But backseat was a big let down for me, I took a tape and measured the rearseat, curvv and harrier share the same rear seat

BoringGenius

It is, but I already have harrier ICE, so am looking for only ev, but nice 2 car combo

BoringGenius

It's a new car and on a new platform, so if I decide to go for it, I'll wait to see it's real world performance before i decide

BoringGenius

ADAS isn't a necessity, but I would like to have it when my father drives it, coz mostly of his drives are on highway, and ventilated seats and powered driver seats are nice to have features.

And not to forget I have to buy the charger additionally if I go for accomplished
