Coincidentally both times, storme was accompanied by Fortuners. Varicor 400 - refinement and powerĪs always, we all got down as fresh as if we went on a 5km drive.Ģ pics from coffee stops at the same A2B restaurant at Othakadai, from the to & fro parts of the trip. Loved the drive totally, with family not realising what speeds the car was doing. Trichy - Madurai - Sivakasi highways are blissful to drive and I keep my Storme happily at 3000- 3250 rpm in 6th for hours together.ĭriving storme at those speeds on the highway and to experience even bad surfaces glide through, is a bliss!! I imagined the high speed chime consistently beeping and hence dropped the AltroZ from the trip. Planned to take the Altroz, but then, it was a family trip, which means - No music. I had a 500 km round trip to Sivakasi today. I have already posted my Altroz pics from the pdi at the yard in Altroz official review thread.įor those who missed it, here are a few pics of the Storme with my next primaryĪfter a long hiatus due to addition of the beautiful Altroz to my garage, Storme will be driven once every week (planning Saturdays as I drive to 2 of my office locations on that day), thereby not being unused totally. It will replace the ciaz(and storme) as my primary ride, while I will also retain my Kwid 1.0 as a beater. Tomorrow my new daily driver is getting delivered. But I lack that patience and those 154 horses and 400 Nm torque must be enjoyed thoroughly too. When driven sedately, storme delivers excellent fuel efficiency for a big 2 tonne car. Thoroughly enjoyed my time with the storme (except for those fuel refilling times though ). In my 2 decades of driving experience, Storme is the only large SUV that drives like a small car when it comes to maneuverability. Also thanks to the Kwid 1.0 for chipping in, covering 6000 km since August. It is back to hibernation at my parents' home (next street though).Įxcellently replaced my ex-beloved Ciaz for the last 9 months, covering 21,500 km inspite of complete lockdown in May and low usage in the last 2 months. The storme was used very sparingly in September and October, totalling 2200 km in both the months combined. Should have crossed 25000 km but lockdown in May and Kwid being used parallelly since August has reduced the running of stormeĪ huge difference between monthly fuel costs between Aug and Sep One advantage of using the smaller, more efficient car is that your monthly fuel expenditure is reduced by almost half.Īugust I spent 31000 rupees while this month I have managed it with 18xxx rupees.įinally crossed 20000 km usage in 8 months in this year. So, the storme is parked at the end of garage and will not be used much unless I sort out this issue. I don't have the patience or the time in October to check it out. Kinda pissed off that I am encountering this sound at this point in time (just 47k on odo). Recently noticing a humming sound from the front right tyre. Closing September 2021 with 47010 km on the odo.
