I've owned an exter S CNG for 2.5 years, did 34k km on it. I couldn't have asked for a better beginner car. The only downsides of this car are: 1. Suspensions, yes they're soft, no problems in the city, but you do feel the pot holes and unevenness of the road, again it doesn't impact that much, it could have been better. 2. I wish it had better sized rims and tyres, because for the car that's that tall, at high speeds on the highway, on turns you feel the G force, on the contrary I've one company car, that's a Tata Altroz cng 2023, that machine sticks to the ground at turns at high speeds, maybe for the grounded stance, bigger tyres and longer wheel base, but again that's all altroz has to offer. I won't be switching to another car anytime soon, I just love this car, perfect city car, and a decent highway car, I've done 1000km trips in this and it drives so smoothly, and the handling of this car is on the next level, the steering, chef's kiss it is.... Such a nimble and smooth, it is, I've driven a friends Punch amt 2026 and boy that steering sucked, it felt as it was in the 3 year old altroz. The head room, the space it is the best in class.. So yes this is still the best first or beginner car for the city.
