ಚೆವ್ರೊಲೆಟ್ ಸೈಲ್ ಹ್ಯಾಚ್ಬ್ಯಾಕ್ ನಿರ್ವಹಣೆ ವೆಚ್ಚ

After 5 years with TATA vista petrol edition we decided to change the car because of the maintenance cost had accumulated and desire of another car. We made options of which ones to go for and came up with Swift : Not interested as it was already in the family. Wagon R: Not interested due to tall box design and wanted B segment car. i20: expensive for the our budget. i10: distance between steering wheel & driver seat was a issue. Grand i10: just launched. Beat: distance between steering wheel & driver seat was a issue. Celerio: Waiting period 6 months. Finally we decided with CHEVY SAIL PS after taking test drive (KLN automobiles ltd)with it. Decision time: Factors that led to it: First and foremost when you sit inside the driver side the space it offers and the seat is comfortable for 100+ kms drive without break. The back space is also ample comparable to TATA vista for 5 people and the seats are comfortable for a B segment car. The engine is 1.2 litre petrol engine is happy to be driven in sedate style can't expect outright performance but feel good performance. The gear was smooth comparable to Maruti swift with short throws and the it has optimum long gear ratios except for the first one where the engine makes more noise due to pickup and try to accelerate past cars. The pickup is sedate as it is launched as family car. Steering wheel is light and it picks up weight is high speed, is ok to drive in city and highway.The braking (leg & hand), clutch are easy to use and good grip offered by the default tyres Apollo which are easy city drive and the highway drive is smooth if it is not throttled hard. The dashboard plastic is adequate and the speedometer gives information of the kilometers, odometer, fuel level & rpm. It is clear and bright during day and night. There is a locker for storing in the left side of dashboard to front passenger. Bottle holders are there in the both front doors. Holders are present are present in all four doors. Hazard lights and braking lights are bright day and night. Headlamps are powerful and adequate. The door close with authority not comparable to Skoda Fabia, i20 but other B segment cars. By default car did not have audio system it was base model, aftermarket fittings, we installed Xenox door locks, JBL speakers with JVS mp3 player. the car had power windows for front doors only, manual for the back doors. it had spare tyre tucked in the boot and boot is spacious for two trolleys. We bought with 5 years of service warranty for extra money yet to get the letter from the head office in Mumbai. The servicing cost have been appropriate as such and with detailed usage and pricing has been adequate, no shocks till now and they usually give it within 24 hours. They gave a chevy bear doll looks cheap but a nice leather file organizer with manual and invoice.

This is my first review on this site. Hope it will be useful for you guys. I bought this car around May 2015. Let me describe my experience with the car. Exterior: Yes its not that much attractive with its smile fascia and appealing too but the aerodynamics for this segment is pretty good. The visibility of this head lights are pretty good at nights. Engine: I have took it for few long drives and it's pretty amazing to drive its cruising good in it's 100 kmph when it touches 120 kmph at it's max power it's riding quality and traction is really awesome. At my first 10000 kms pick up is not that much great for the petrol version comparing to other competitors in the market but after that the service personnel tuned it to perfection. You can get a 22 kmpl while you maintaining in 100 in highways and 15-17 kmpl in city according to traffic conditions(I drive around 50 kms daily in city). Interior: The interior is decent built and the audio system is quite good for default. This has the leather seats in the top variant and quality is good too. Air conditioning system is doing it's job fine in pretty hot conditions it's take us to switch to level 3 in fan speed to balance the heat. Back seats are really lovely for long drive no back aches till a 300 kms break. Boot! oh vow! what an lovely space we got here. It's really sufficient to pack a 4 baggage of travel case completely. Legroom is awesome for both the front and rear passengers. The placement of the power windows buttons was bit awkward at first because i am not used to that placement but once i started using it trust me it's really easy to use it without straining much like we have in the drive side door. PROS: 1) Good package for around 7lacs. 2) Great engine for those who are not performance car lovers but a commuter lovers. 3) Lovely aerodynamics. 4) Legroom 5) Back seat position 6) Boot space 7) Ride quality at high speeds 8) Braking 9) Low maintenance(for oil service it's getting charged for 3k to 5k max including other issues attended.) 10) Noise suppression is decent. CONS: Yes! not everyone is perfect. 1) Cabin light is not visible at the back. 2) Apollo tires believe me it's the worst night mare for long drives especially potty road conditions. 3) Ceiling metal is just really bad. It's just a thin layer of sheet. 4) If you are driving in little deep water during rain, the water will flow in through steering hole which is irritating. 5) The ground clearance, when u are travelling five and boot full, the speed brakers and the deep potholes making the body scratch. 6) Service centers, yes they are providing warranty just for sake for the first one year they are treating us like a gold member and from the second year there is a change in approach, if you need a faulty part have to be covered in warranty and get it replaced you have to literally lead a verbal war with these people. 7) Suspension could have been better. Verdict: Yes, it have few CONS but other than two major it's really a beautiful car to drive and hold to it for quite some time. I'll give a rating of 3 out of 5. Hope this is helpful! Good luck for you own car hunt.

I got my Chevy from Platinum Pune. I dislike Maruti at a greater extent, I do not know how long they will full the customers by selling off sourced engines to the customers. When I came to conclusion buying a car I had few technicals in mind, Length, Boot space, Extreme comfort, good built, reliability, Torque and Power of engine and off course the value for money. I started looking at Brands like Tata - ( they know nothing about monocoque chassis ), Hyundai - ( Pricing issue more than market rate for the same kind of engine configuration will Explain later! ), FoxWagan - ( German Albeit Servicing issue), Maruti ( Every sales man has Ego of high sales so they least worry about your reputation), Honda ( They are still do not know what is next after Honda City , Amaze and other product Time waste),Ford ( Need serious face lift to there all model)   So there are two option Left Fiat and Chevrolet. These are manufacturer providing honest and Value for your hard earned money.   I came across Chevrolet Sail. Now I would like to share explanation what I said about some other brands.   - Sales team was very amicable & good to understand my need.They could have sold out Sail Sedan Car but suggested me to go for Hatchback. as we have three members in family. - After sales Service is Excellent and Shoroom Guys are quite resourceful and approachable.   This car has total length of 3950 mm which pretty good & 100 mm greater than Swift. It'e has True hatchback design concept which add to comfort. Engine power is Pretty Good of 84 PS . Torque is 110 NM which good at it's side because Many people might not aware that Less PS Engine power and high engine Torque means there is risk directly ( Maruti Swift has 114 mm) to your engine crank shaft and it is really important to have balance torque. Suspension is very nicely tuned and there is no Clutter and Cling heard inside the Cabin which very Calm,while on highway. I have driven this car so far more than 6000 km, Ensuring it crossing all terrains ,bad patches or weathers but this hatch lived to it's name, it is reliable engine is very well tuned there is almost no noise, even at three digit speed, Honda Amaze has limit of 140 km Max. When you push the Throttle you do not feel lazy response like Hyundai Grand i10 or Brio or Amaze ( they are Amazingly lazy ) and their engine literally ask for Mercy to slow down at three digit speed. Inside of cabin it specious specially which not the case normally for other identical cars. When you actually sit behind the wheel of Swift Dezire or Swift or Grand i10 forget about space it is very complected and it is feel of cramp.But for Sail it is roomier than any other hatch in premier hatch engagement. Engine is very Frugal it delivers average of around 16 km/l on the highways. Boot is quite decent which is almost less that 300 L. but after folding seats of second row that increases to around 500 L. ( Quite interesting !) It is greater than any other identical product. Overall Bottom line is Chevrolet is truly value for money, and next car will Chevrolet Cruz !   Thanks !  

Look and Style Nice & Perfect. Comfort Satisfactory or say just good. Pickup OK not the best again. Mileage 15lt/km with AC Best Features Smooth Ride, side beams are really good. Sterio, AC & Boot space. Needs to improve Clutch system not a good choice for start stop condition, very long way clutch. Roof top is a concern, didnt understand, is that really some steel material or just a paper thin sheet? Overall Experience 3/5 ( 1 less is for chevrolet services which are not good at all and 1 down for the car)

Look and Style Not a spoty look. But white color look greate. Bought base model and modified for 26k accessories. Comfort Comfort is the one of the best feature. Huge space inside car. Back seat positioned slightly bent. Headrest from base model. huge leg space on back seat. bumper is another good factor.Travelled through very bad roads,but didn't got tired because of suspension of car. Pickup Drawback of car. With AC clearing other vehicle is difficult.Even in 3 rd gear power is less.But if we switch off AC , it will like switching nitrous. AC is good. So practiced to switch it off when overtaking is required. Mileage 1000 km driven. Hope car is giving 13-15 per liter. Yet to check correct mileage. Waiting for to complete all service Best Features Comfort. Best car for long ride through highways. Specious inside car. Needs to improve Only power. Rest of everything is great . Value for money. Overall Experience Good family car.

Look and Style: Looks is ok but not belongs to 2013 Comfort Spacious car but missing some essential features, top model does not have steering mounted control, firm seats, oddly located power window switches, window glass noise when half rolled down, dashboard noise Pickup Pickup is very good with towing by another car Mileage 10 KMPL in city and 13 KMPL on highway, too low as compare to claimed by Chevrolet Best Features Nothing Needs to improve. Just stop making cars , put chilly powder in customer eye and take his money and kick him. Overall Experience I have purchased Chevrolet Sail uva LS abs diesel on 31st march 2013 and this is the worst decision of my life. after two months of purchase 2100 KM on board my car's engine got stuck. I took my car to the nearest service center, after inspection the Service engineer said that there is an engine problem and whole engine replace under warranty. He said that crank shaft pulley bolt has been broken. And now after 2400 km with new engine, problem starts again. My car refuse to start and now Chevrolet engineer said that my car's engine will be changed once again. Why I spend 7 lacs on a diesel car. I am crying with sail uva because I purchased sail uva by taking HDFC car loan. Why I purchase this car. I am asking this question with me every minute every hour. Chevrolet stole my money. I want my money back.Total three & half months of purchase after only 4500 km run, engine changed twice and not only me there are many other customers who facing this kind of problem with Chevrolet sail diesel or sail uva diesel and also Chevrolet stop production of sail and sail uva diesel models since june 2013 because of quality issues and they are not able to find the root cause now. ac switch light useless, power window switch in centre , remote key buttons u must press them many times to open car, all doors dashbord too noisy. Poor mileage only 10 KMPL. Why Chevrolet launch this kind of product without doing much R & D. Chevrolet cheating with the poor customers. GM is a fraud company. "Chevrolet" One more failure of GM after opel. If you want to spend your hard earn money in any American company so please pay to Microsoft foundation not to General Motors NEVER BUY CHEVROLET.

Look and Style I am in love with looks of sail Uva front which looks like cruze. Comfort No other hatchback will give you this much comfort dues to plenty of leg space for backseaters too. Pickup excellent pick up  Mileage if you are driving at around 65 to 80 kms without ac or on and off ac on highway this car give u between 22 .5 to 24 kmpl with ful time ac on give u between 19 to 20 on highway.intercity anything between 15 to 18 kms with ac on . Best Features tilt steering adjustible side mirrors. Excellent suspension,fog lights at night .servicing till 2nd service nothing charged til now and 3800 after one year is wht iam told .maintenance free car.  Needs to improve the window pane were cluttering intially and after a padding was placed they r now fine.idling noise should be less.  Overall Experience i had purchased this car due to good mileage , Plenty of leg room comfort and decent looks.I am very happy with the way ever 4 average people can sit and small kids til age 4 just walk around on the back wit power windows and child lock for window panes too for the back seat.I am satisfied.
