Beat Diesel LT Review
Chevrolet India, the subsidiary of the General Motors has officially launched the refurbished version of its bestselling hatch model Chevrolet Beat. In a bid to arrest decline in sales, the company has made some modifications to its exteriors of this hatch and added some new features inside. This hatch is available in four trim levels among which, Chevrolet Beat Diesel LT is one of the top end variant. This trim is powered by a 1.0-litre, 3-cylinder diesel motor that is coupled to a 5-speed manual gearbox and returns a mileage of about 25.44 Kmpl. The company introduced this modified version with improved cosmetics such as a chrome plated dual port front grille, stylishly designed headlight cluster, jewel effect tail lamps, a two tone rear bumper and so on. Inside this hatch, it comes with a multi-functional steering wheel, which will enhance the convenience for the driver. The company has blessed this top end trim with number of features including AC unit, music system, advanced instrument cluster and so on. Currently the manufacturer is selling this hatch in a total of eight attractive body paint options including Cocktail Green, Caviar Black, Super Red, Summit White, Misty Lake, Sandrift Grey, Switch Blade Silver and Linen beige.
Exteriors:
The facelifted version of Chevrolet Beat comes with improved cosmetics on its front, side and rear profiles. On its frontage, it gets an all new headlight cluster with black finish inside and comes incorporated with halogen lamps. This cluster surrounds a dual port front radiator grille with a chrome surround and with the gold plated company logo in the center. The company has retained the design of the bumper and incorporated it with an air dam and with a pair of fog lights . The side profile of this hatch too remains to be the same with body colored door handles and external mirror caps. The wheel arches are expressively designed and they are fitted with 14-inch steel wheels with full wheel covers. The silver satin roof rails gives a stylish appeal to the side profile. The rear profile of this facelifted version gets an all new jewel effect taillight cluster and it is accompanied by stylishly design rear windscreen and boot lid. It also comes with body colored roof rails and dual toned bumper, which brings a rugged look to the rear.
Interiors:
The interiors of this refurbished hatch looks quite contemporary. The company has used good quality plastic inside the cabin, which gives it a refreshing look. The dashboard has a unique design with high gloss black finish and it comes with a stylish central console. The company has given the silver lining on the door panels, IP tray, instrument pod and on the steering wheel that accentuates the cabin. The seats are covered with semi-fabric upholstery that comes with stylish design inserts. The rear cabin is fitted with 60:40 split seats, which helps in increasing the boot space. The company has incorporated an AC unit, air vents, music system and other control switches that adds to the convenience of the occupants. Apart from these, you can also find features such as front door map pockets, cup holders, coat hook and other important aspects. There is an advanced instrument panel fitted inside that features a digital tachometer, trip-meter, door ajar warning, low fuel warning , digital clock and several other sophisticated features.
Engine and Performance:

The company engineered this power plant with DOHC valve configuration, which allows it to churn out 57.6Bhp of peak power while generating a maximum torque output of 150Nm at just 1750rpm. This torque output is transmitted to the front wheels via a 5-speed manual transmission gearbox. The company claims that the vehicle can give away a peak mileage of about 25.44 Kmpl, which is quite good. On the other hand, this hatch can cross the 100 Kmph speed mark in about 15 to 16 seconds and it can reach up to a maximum speed of about 145 Kmph, which is rather good.

- Good Bye BEAT ! It was my trusted family memberWithin a short budget I choose this car. It gave me wonderful mileage. Not very comfortable at the rear seat but with 60:40 split option even in the lower models it gave us wonderful flexibility.With 5 years extended warranty I was not under any big expense pressure. General Motors have decided to close the production. The reason best known to them.Read More15
- Got good value for moneyPurchased in 2010 July, the car has been excellent mate in terms of a single-handed drive. Its been a true companion on highway driving, in 42 degrees temp of Gujarat, where many other premium cars also fail. The maintenance has been low for AC and overall, excellent space (boot and inside), superb panel (with glo-lightning at night), nice sound system and other features like Power windows, power mirrors, smooth gear system brakes and bumpers.Read More15
- Disappointed with performanceI have BEAT Diesel car and it crossed almost 75000 KM running , But now I have started facing lot of problem 1] Engine is consuming oil , I have to replace it every 5000 KM 2] though I have new battery Engine starting problem has started . 3] Pickup has started drooping very badly. 4] Very high maintenance cost as I have paid more than 2 lacks in servicing in 5 years 5] Service stations lack good technicians to identify problem, they only know how to quote high servicing bill by replacing parts and loot money specially in Bangalore . GM have very limited servicing stations 6] All parts are not easily available outside so have to rely on those service stations for servicing who are there for looting money. 7] GM India has very pathetic customer service ,they don't work seriously on your complaints I have to get rid of this car but again in Market revaluation value is extremely less , I will recommend not to buy this car due bad technical service and high maintenance costRead More60 12
- Chevrolet: Worst CarI am using Chevrolet beat from past 4 years and was getting it serviced from Bosch service center. Don't know why I got my last service done from Chevrolet dealer on 31st December. Few days back while driving on local roads of New Delhi suddenly my vehicle stopped in between the road and Diesel (fuel) got leaked from engine compartment, Lots of smoke was coming from the bonnet i got scared and when I checked the leakage and found a pipe from fuel line come out due to which diesel was leaked. When I ask my service dealer (Chevrolet dealer), he says " sir aaise hi nikal gya hoga wasie kabhi hotta ni h aaisa". I escalate the issue with Chevrolet also but didn't get any revert it seems that company is least bother with the services issues. They jus sell the vehicle for forgot everything. I am also an automobile Engineer and working in maintenance I will never recommend anyone to buy Chevrolet vehicle. I am taking care of fleet of almost 1500 vehicles with different-different corporate and will never suggest someone to but any car from Chevrolet.ALSO WOULD REQUEST TO YOU GUYS NOT GOT WITH SUCH MANUFACTURER WHO DIDN'T EVEN REVERT ON YOUR EMAILSRead More20 3
