Expert opinion and recommendation

The Chevrolet Sail U-VA Limited Edition Diesel is a mixed bag when it comes to overall performance and reliability. On the positive side, the diesel Smartech motor, derived from Fiats Multijet engine, is refined and offers good torque, making it capable of pulling cleanly from a standstill. The gearbox in the diesel variant is also commendable, providing smooth shifts. However, the cars handling and ride quality are not its strongest points, with some users reporting nervous steering and a suspension that never feels fully settled, particularly at higher speeds. Additionally, there have been reports of reliability issues, including frequent visits to the service station and problems with the ABS brakes. While it offers better than average space for occupants, its overall package falls short in a highly competitive segment, making it just not bad rather than exceptional.

Price

Pricing details and changes

The Chevrolet Sail U-VA Limited Edition Diesel was priced competitively in its time. The base model started at around Rs 6.16 lakh ex-showroom in Mumbai, while the top-end models could cost up to Rs 6.94 lakh ex-showroom. On-road prices would typically include additional costs such as registration, insurance, and other local taxes, which could add another Rs 1-1.5 lakh to the ex-showroom price.

The mileage of the Chevrolet Sail U-VA Limited Edition Diesel is one of its stronger points. It is reported to deliver around 15.8 kmpl in city driving and 21.6 kmpl on the highway, with an overall efficiency of 17.25 kmpl. This makes it a reasonable choice for those concerned about fuel economy and running costs.

About

General information and overview

The Chevrolet Sail U-VA Limited Edition Diesel is a compact hatchback that was introduced to compete in the highly competitive Indian market. It features a 1248cc Smartech diesel engine, which produces 78PS at 4000rpm and 205Nm of torque at 1750rpm. The car is known for its spacious interior, particularly the knee space for rear passengers, and its smooth gearbox. The diesel engine is refined and offers good in-gear acceleration, making it suitable for both city and highway driving. However, the cars exterior design was not as contemporary as some of its competitors, and it lacked the performance and handling edge that many buyers in this segment look for. Despite this, it remains a viable option for those prioritizing space, fuel efficiency, and budget-friendliness.
