Is the Chevy Enjoy good enough to take the MPV segment by storm?

An area where the Enjoy did impress was ride and handling. The suspension setup is pretty soft, so bump absorption is quite good. Low-speed ride is particularly cushy and the suspension also works pretty noiselessly over rough patches. There is a bit of bobbing at high speeds, but this isn’t a big problem. It’s also pretty nice to drive, in urban traffic, on an open highway and surprisingly on a twisty road as well. The steering is nice and light and once you nudge the Enjoy into a corner it is pretty accomplished at handling the constant twists and turns of a ghat road as well.
GM’s China-sourced MPV underpromises and overdelivers. Yes the interiors do feel cheap in places but otherwise GM India seems to have done a stellar job of re-engineering the Enjoy for India. To begin with, the Enjoy is compact, but spacious and comfortable, it rides, steers and drives well and the diesel engine is sufficiently powerful and tractable. Priced around Rs 50-70 thousand(depending on the spec) cheaper than its direct rival Maruti Ertiga, the Enjoy undercuts the Ertiga by a generous margin. Overall, here’s a whole lot of car for reasonable amount of money. Isn’t that what we all want?
