Hello everyone,
I am a newbie at Carwale and this is my first review of a car. Daewoo Matiz is a car that I have been driving for a long time now. I have a 2001 June model and have done 30K with it. I have to say that I'm very happy with the total package. It just was the best family small hatch but got discontinued. Here is what I feel about my first love (also the car that I learned to drive in 😷)
Exterior
As soon as you look at the Matiz, you will get that strikingly aerodynamic feeling. You will feel that the Matiz just cuts the air and flows on the road as smooth as water. The finishing is quite nice. Even though it is a 9 year old car, I never feel that it has lost its exterior looks. The quality of the paint job is also good as the car has still retained its shine after all these years!
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
- When you first get into the car, you might actually be surprised to find that it is not cramped at all. There is decent space for 5 adults with the front seats pushed back to the max. In this regard, the Matiz scored over the Indica, 800 and Santro way back in 2001.
- The quality of the interior is not up to the mark. The colors used inside are unconventional ones. Plastics used are cheap. But frankly speaking, what more can you expect out of a 2.9 lac car.
- The boot is not very large. It can take one big case along with a small bag.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
- This is where the Matiz is a GEM. The engine has been superb with no major problems at all. To be frank, the only time my car goes to a garage is for a routine service.
- The pick up is more than decent. The engine is very responsive. Even now, there is torque in all gears all round the rev bracket. It doesn't need frequent gear changes. All you need to do is to just floor the throttle and off you go.
- Fuel economy is unmatched. I still get a FE of 15-16 kmpl inside the city and it goes past 20 if driven well on the highway. I just use unleaded petrol and not even the 'better' products available.
- The only problem one might find is with the gearbox. The throws are not short. Putting the car into second gear needs some serious practice. I always used to slip it into 4th by mistake when learning.
Ride Quality & Handling
- The car is very stable even at speeds of 120kmph. I have made long journeys of up to 7 hours continuously and it has the ability to take such stress even during hot afternoons.
- The handling is good too. Can't expect a lot out of it. But it still is pretty decent.
- Due to the small size of the car and the ever alert engine, it is very easy to drive inside the city. Sometimes, I feel like I'm driving a Mini Cooper. That is how small this car is.
- Brakes are good but you have to travel a few inches on the brake pedal before the actual braking happens. It is very easy to get the Matiz skidding as it has powerful brakes and very less overall weight so got to be early on the brakes as much as possible.
Final Words
My first love Matiz!! Matiz actually means CHARMING. It has always been a charm to sit behind the wheel in this beauty. I have really developed an emotional attachment to it. 😊
Areas of improvement
A few years late on this section, I guess. 😝
Excellent fuel economy, interior space, stability, aerodynamic design, easy to manoeuvre in trafficGear box stiff ( 2nd G specially), not a large boot, fraction late response to braking.

I feel matiz to be the best small car launched in India till date. I bought a second hand 2001 model matiz in 2009 in coimbatore.I just made a service for 7000 rupees and the car runs very smooth. I was surprised at the stability of the car compared to Zen, Alto,Santro etc small cars. I drove the car till 150Kmph on coimbatore to bangalore highway on straight road and toped till 170kmph on slope downward on that highway. the car dint give even a little shake.Power steering is ok. Brakes are superb with Bridgestone tyres fitted. Its very easy to drive in cities too. I was thinking that the car was too small but after buying i felt the space was good. I get a mileage of 17kmpl on highway & 15kmpl in cities with air con off and 16kmpl on highway &13kmpl in cities with air con ON since my normal speed will be high. No one need to get frightened about the availability of spares. All the original spares are available at CAG coimbatore and there is no problem of maintanence.
The problem i face with this car is tat the gearbox is bit notchy and the pickup drops with air con on so i need to press pedal hard to accelarate.
As a overall i feel MATIZ to be the best car...

I have owned this small car since Nov. 1999. This is very fuel efficient car when driven in between 60-70 Km/hr speed in fifth gear at hiways it gives fantastic milage of around 25 km/ltr which is amazing. since this car is driven mostly in hills of Himachal Pradesh it gives milage of around 20Km/ltr. But in city conditions the milage is poor around 12 Km/ltr but still much better than the other cars in this segment. i never feel the maintenance cost a burden on me as it is very low. spares are readily available at reasonable price as these being supplied by GM now. I was planning to sell this car but now I have to rethink on my decision as this car has not given any trouble since I bought it. I really love this car very much.

There were many instances where friends suggested me to sell of the car or i will not get the resale price, as on today the price for my Matiz SP - 2000 model does not fetch me more than 45,000. But when i drive my car i find all luxouries and comforts, compared to any other small cars in india. Only problem is when i on the A/c there is no pick-up in the 2nd gear. The car is Steady on roads and enjoy my drive on the Mumbai-Pune Express Way. Its good to hear that GM has taken over and there are spares to be available at a cheaper rate. I have decided not to sell my car. Thanks
Value for money, great style and spacious.Gear movements especially second gear not smooth, when A/C is on there is no pick-up

I purchased new SD model Matiz in December, 2000 which has crossed 1,06,000 kms till date.I have driven this car from Chennai to Cochin and back twice, first in May 2004 and recently in May 2009 with my family of four adults, each time covering a distance of 1500 kms including ghat sections without a hitch. Thanks to the good roads, I could constantly touch 120km without any discomfort. I changed the original set of tyres only after 70000 kms. I feel the car is still much better than most new hatch back models in its class available in the market.I am lucky that I have a good work shop in Chennai which exclusively takes care of all Daewoo models.Availability of spare parts thus far has never been a problem. I am planning to keep this car for at least the next two years and hopefully, it will continue to serve me as it has done all these nine years.
good control, good style and a trust worthy matea slight reduction in power with ACon in city traffic.

I purchased A Matiz SD in December 2009 and have crossed 105000 km as on date. I have driven this car twice from Chennai to Cochin and back covering a distance of 1500 km including Ghat sections with my family of four adults. The first was in May 2004 and recently in May 2009. Thanks to the good road conditions I could easily clock speeds of 120 kms with ease. On both occasions we did not face any kind of problem. Despite the long years I feel it still is much better than most cars of its class in the market today. It’s a very well balanced car and can handle curves comfortably even at high speeds. Luckily we have a very good mechanic in Chennai whose workshop specializes in all Daewoo models. I wish to keep this car for at least the next two years and hopefully it will continue to serve me and my family faithfully as it has done in the last nine years.
