        I think..it is safe to switch off your engine as the engine is already heated for driving over 4 long hours…
        It should be parked in a cool place

        for natural aspirated vehicles it is not much of a problem.But If you have a turbo vehicle petrol/diesel ,it is advisable to switch off the engine after 1 min of idling to keep the turbo running properly and to prevent it from blowing pre-maturely.Do not raise the engine before switching off.Regards…

        It is better not to. Giving a 15-30 second idle before turning the engine off after a long or hard drive is a best practice for all cars, and a must do for turbo engines.

        Always best to wait for 30 seconds to a minute at idle for the turbo to spool down before switching off with a turbo-charged engine.

    Hello every1. I am planning to buy a car in the range of 4.5-5 lac (closer to 4.5 range). I have short listed Honda brio S MT, S option MT and Chevy beat LT (All petrol variant). My primary focus is towards fuel efficiency, low maintenance, spacious and good resale value and maximum interior features. Can anyone please help me select the best option?

        I think for your needs the Brio SMT option pack will make more sense than the Beat, since resale and maintenance are your priorities. The Brio being a Honda is almost maintenance free and if you are going for a petrol then why not go for a manufacturer that is best known for their petrol engines. That said the Beat is also a good car but you won’t…[Read more]

        If fuel efficiency is your primary consideration, then look at the Brio MT over the Beat. It is slightly more powerful, but equally fuel efficient. You’ll get about 14 kmpl in the city.

        Thanks Rishabh. I am also thinking to fit CNG kit in the car and considering the smaller luggage space of Brio, I was in a dual mind. Also, even in the top model, trunk glass has no wiper. Does that result in low visibility in extreme weathers? Fitting CNG in Brio makes sense?

        Bhavesh the rear windshield of the Brio is virtually flat so no water will really stay on it, yes it would’ve been nice if you had the option of a rear wiper but for the most part you won’t need it. Do not switch to CNG the moment you buy it, drive it for at least 5,000 kms before you consider that move. And when you get a CNG kit opt for Lovato,…[Read more]

        Thanks Shenoy. I don’t know why but I have that personal likelyness towards Beat. However, Brio seems to be a practical option. Also, few of the things that lure me towards beat are:

        Go with what your heart says..i also personally like the design and interior of the Beat with its dashboard design and big analog meter…

        If u want to install CNG in the car, go for the car that comes with cng as a option otherwise the company gurantee will be over as u install CNG in the car as your running seems to be low go with petrol because cng will cost u around 40 to 60 thousand extra
