Chevrolet Enjoy – A Pretty Enjoy Able Ride



The Indian car market today has an incredible number of choices over all fragments. What's more, obviously, this means cut-throat rivalry. In this situation, it is to a great degree challenging to uncover a sweet spot. The Chevrolet Enjoy is going up against the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga. There are just two players in this fragment, so it’s not as gathered as the others.
The Enjoy isn't shocking to take a gander at, however that is just normal in most circumstances. It's a multipurpose vehicle (Mpv) notwithstanding, and has a container like profile. The nose is short and obtuse. Yet portions have an effect. As the styling line as an afterthought that begins at the grille and runs along the whole length of the car. The tall form is likewise split up delightfully by a line between the wheel curves. The cap sports a sharp "V". Shockingly, this outline sensibility hasn't been continued to the back, which is very box-like. Likewise, the 14-inch wheels look little on the enormous form.
The one of a kind thing about the Enjoy is that, not normal for its associates in the Mpv portion, it is based a lighter and more space-effective, car like monocoque body. The car's Fiat-sourced diesel engine sends power to the back wheels, so some re-building was carried out.
Within, the Enjoy has a high top, making the first two columns spacious and agreeable. The top-close models of both the diesel and petrol variants have skipper situates for the front two columns. The seats are agreeable and furnish back in all the right places. The third column was shockingly open, in spite of the fact that right to gain entrance is a bit unpredictable. The seating position is knees-up however legroom is not too bad.
The lodge is light and breezy in light of the vast windows. Despite the fact that the dashboard configuration is dated molded, it is flawless. The fit and completion is a little late, with low quality plastics utilized all around.
As far as helpful spaces, there aren't a lot of people. The entryway pockets have the competence to hold just little jars and not vast mugs or jugs, since they are not too profound. With the third-column seat flipped forward, baggage space is very sufficient however, and stacking gear on to the low floor is simple as well. Absence of Bluetooth, atmosphere control and a music framework that is a negligible single-Din unit makes this vehicle frail in the supplies office.
The Enjoy exists as the Wuling Hongguang in China; it comes controlled by a petrol engine there. General Motors (Gm) and Chevrolet tried really hard to get a diesel to India. The organization made an incredible showing to flip a Fiat Multijet engine by 90 degrees and send power to the back wheels.
The engine feels ready to rev when you take off. The low engine speed reactions of the turbo are exceptionally handy for a Fiat Multijet. On the Enjoy diesel, it feels like you are on support from 1,600rpm onwards, which is phenomenal when contrasted and the Multijet-provided Ertiga, which has more than enough turbo slack. This means upping pace abruptly is truly smooth. The engine's torque band is centered between 1,600rpm and 4,000rpm and the engine pulls in a smooth way in this district. Yet the humble 73bhp needs to move 1,345kg, so speeding up isn't extremely solid. The Enjoy takes 21.36 seconds to do the 0-100 kmph sprint. The car, nonetheless, feels speedier in genuine conditions.
The gearbox has a light activity and the riggings space in effortlessly, however the long tosses and detached feel give the feeling that you're driving an utilized car.
The main significant aggravation is the respectable measure of vibration you get from the propeller shaft at around 1,200rpm, when you get off the throttle. This might be a digit perplexing, particularly provided that you are driving in steady begin stop activity, yet Gm says an answer for the issue is nearing soon.
The 1,400cc petrol that powers the Enjoy makes a much healthier 104bhp. The engine has a sensibly solid and responsive to close and, subsequently, even out increasing speed is snappy. It gets from 0-100 kmph in 14.8 seconds. Be that as it may, this engine is foul and not exceptionally responsive at low speeds.
The Enjoy drives well and feels cushy at low speeds since the suspension set-up is delicate and knock ingestion truly great, other than being silent over unpleasant patches. You do feel a knottiness over more honed edges from the back suspension then again, and there is a spot of buoy and skip at higher speeds. Anyway the Enjoy rides pretty well in general. The directing is light, if not extremely responsive. Straight-line strength is likewise really exceptional. Also the Mpv is really finished at taking care of the steady wanders aimlessly of a Western Ghat street too.
Mind you, you will give it more than a push on event, as it is at times hesitant to change heading. The brakes on event don't convey to the extent that they might as well; yet go harder on them, require considerably more, and bunches of feel and halting power live up to expectations.
While the Enjoy isn't way breaking—the insides are frustrating and the petrol engine is truly lacking Gm India has completed well to re-architect the car for India. It's smaller, however satisfies with space and solace levels. The taking care of is more than just acceptable and the diesel engine is very able. Obviously, there's opportunity to get better, however for the Rs.5.5 lakh for the petrol and Rs.6.9 lakh for the diesel that we anticipate that Chevrolet will value it at, it’s very decent offering.
