Compact, light chassis makes it genuinely agile in city traffic

Nepal price not officially confirmed in available results.
Underseat storage not disclosed and likely limited.
Five variants and a Rs 70,000 spread make trim selection confusing
Seat cushioning feels firmer than rivals over longer rides
