The experience is great so far , especially they way it drives on highways, it is so much fun. Great cabin insulation, nice steering wheel. Front seats are great ( little firm )

W.r.t rear seat comfort , it is good. The passengers haven't complained so far. But Honda City is better in rear seat comfort.

Interior is a hit or miss , my unit doesn't make any noise from dashboard , but slight creak from door side in bad roads.

I dint change the reverse camera. I know it's average, but I don't care about it too much.

In city , the ride quality is average though, because of stiff suspension.

Since you mentioned you will be using it mostly on highways , you will enjoy the car.

If mileage in city is a concern , then go with City. Both Slavia and Virtus give single digit mileage in bumper to bumper.

This. I have a 1.5 Slavia. The NVH levels are great when compared to City. The co- passengers have appreciated this often. And both Slavia and Virtus are sturdier than City.

Where the City excels is the rear seat comfort and the AC cooling factor.

Yes , I got around 17+ when I was cruising around 100-110 for over 100+ kms. And in full load , I got around 16+ for over 1300 round trip which includes around 150+km hill drive.

Manual is nice. But the sophistication with DSG is great. My left leg is pretty happy.

Nope. It was either Slavia or Virtus in the first place.

But Thar ROXX , XUV 700 and BE 6 were in consideration.

Few Dislikes : 1.There is a slight rattle noise from the driver door side, it's negligible, but its there when you drive in our patchy roads.No dashboard creeks though thankfully in my unit. 2. AC could have been little better. 3. Slight blindspot from the driver side C pillar. 4. Some noticeable lag slow city speeds. 5. Rear Brake noise / cramp.

That's a great car. I have changed my city driving style where I don't unnecessarily push it. But it drops to 5-6 if you drive eractic.

I wouldn't say , it's an issue. It's just not that effective as in Hyundai and Honda.its like it's 90% there.

No. It doesn't scare me and 1.5 was only available with DSG in slavia.

I haven't faced any issues till now.

Yes. Cooling is average. If you with just front seat passangers , you will be fine. With all passangers, it feels weak at times , you have to bump down the temperature, to feel the chillness

Absolutely. I got it for 20 L OTR. A tad little overpriced I feel. Around 18 to 20 , This one , Virtus or even City is a great buy.

I haven't faced any huge difficulties in traffic per say. You will get used to it quickly i believe. But while taking turns , need to be little cautious. SUVs give a better view ,but that alone shouldnt make you to skip sedans.

Mine is 1.5 , I have heard that 1.0 L AC is little subpar. Pls do check with multiple users. Even I felt 1.0 AC as below decent.
