    It may be a compact SUV, but as we’ve mentioned before, it’s also a very heavy one, owing to its body-on-frame construction, so fuel economy, even in the ARAI test, is nowhere near what you get from a Vitara Brezza or an EcoSport. Our tests turned up 11.45kpl in the city and 14.16kpl on the highway for the manual NuvoSport, while the AMT version managed 10.68kpl in the city and 13.61kpl on the highway. The reason the urban figures are as good as they are is the engine’s effortlessness at low revs. The manual version has stop-start and an Eco mode that limits the engine’s revs, and that should improve those numbers slightly, but again, this is more beneficial in city driving.
