Peformance & Drive:
As this is a 658 cc engine vehicle we cannot consider it to be a great car for travelling in hilly areas especially having so many steep roads but overall it is powerful enough to carry you anywhere.

1: Drive mode with Eco-idle feature is optimized for the better fuel economy that is achieved with a steady acceleration strategy. In this Mode acceleration decreases/is kept steady but fuel economy is increase.
2:  sport mode is given to utilize power and acceleration at their maximum, no matter at what speed you are travelling, acceleration is always immediate in this mode and if compared the difference between Sport mode and Drive mode is of  ¼ but again it will affect fuel economy that is the main target of 658 cc vehicle.
