  This car is very useful and capable of loading approximately 1 ton, making it ideal for heavy-duty tasks. However, its ground clearance is low, so it’s not suitable for off-road driving. Overall, it’s a very good vehicle with low maintenance requirements, offering great value for everyday use.

  This car is absolutely great for long drives, offering both comfort and reliability on the road. The fuel average is impressive, making it a cost-effective choice for both city commutes and highway journeys. One of the biggest advantages is its low maintenance cost, which sets it apart from many other vehicles in the same segment When it comes to safety, this car performs exceptionally well, giving you confidence every time you drive. The seating arrangement is very comfortable, ensuring a relaxed and pleasant experience for both the driver and passengers, even on longer trips. Overall, I truly love this car for its combination of performance, safety, comfort, and efficiency. It’s an ideal family car and a dependable partner for everyday use as well as road trips.

  The car is fine, but the mileage is low. It is comfortable and good for trips. The look is also decent. It's a good car.

  Hey everyone! If you're looking for a reliable family car to get from point A to B comfortably, you can definitely consider the Excel 6. It performs well, handles everyday needs with ease, and is overall a great choice. I’ve driven 36,000 kilometers in the last four years, and it’s been a smooth experience. The only thing to keep in mind is during servicing—just make sure to double-check the bill and parts with your service manager. Other than that, it’s a solid, dependable vehicle. I’d absolutely recommend it for family use. Thank you

  I’m very comfortable with my new XL6 CNG. It’s a compact yet spacious car that offers a smooth and comfortable driving experience. I’ve even recommended it to 4–5 of my friends, and they ended up buying it too. The car provides good space and comes with essential safety features, making it a smart choice for families.
