It has got good looks alright. But i feel the gear is li'l tight and backseat is uncomfortable for three. Good ground clearance. Suspension is Ok.

I couldn't agree with you more..i just think you're so right..I guess great minds just think alike..lol

I test drove the SX4 about a month ago and i felt the exact same way about it. No doubt that the car looks fabulous with its masculine looks but it just lacked that driving feel. The gear shift was really tight as you happened to mention and for some reason the car seemed too cramped from inside (which is quite contradictory to its huge size on the outside). Even the engine lacked the kind of peppiness that i was expecting from a 1.6L 102bhp engine as it tried really hard to push itself beyond the 100kmph mark.

As a matter of fact i even wrote about my test drive in the User Road Test forum (under Enthusiast corner).

See if you wanna check it out !! 

My friend purchased an SX4 and already wants to sell and buy a Verna Maruti does come up with some difficult cars sometimes that is why I prefer Tata cars any day. 

Bro are you obsessed with Tata cars or what? (i'm glad atleast therz somebody whoz absessed about them)

There's not a single decent car from Tata in this segment. I don't even think people consider the Indigo when they think of buying a car in this segment.

The cars that steal the limelight in the C-segment are the Honda City, Chevrolet Aveo, Maruti SX4, Ford Fiesta, Hyundai Verna & maybe the Logan to an extent.

Why would anybody even consider a Tata car in their wildest of dreams when you have such better looking & superior performing cars around?

For starters has any Tata car got any car award  this year? The Honda City & the Chevrolet Aveo have jointly been declared the best cars in the C-segment on the basis of highest customer satisfaction.

So please get your facts right.

Sx4 is good car but how about ford fiesta 1.6s.
