Alto Value for Money

I have brought Maruti Alto LXi, with Flash accessories and SONY CD player with front two speaker at 3.16 lakh on 17 Oct 2010.  My experience about Alto is very good car.  Only problem about car are is Front Light, which is sort out by replacing lamp of 130/90 with cutout cost Rs.1000/-.  I have getting 20 to 21 km/liter average  with A/C on.   My monthly driving is app. 1500 to 1800 km.  Pickup is not good while AC on.  The most economical car which I have seen.  It is a reasonably comfortable car that seats 4 adults easily. However the head room and the leg room will make you feel like you're cramped up in a plastic box. 5 adults sitting in this Maruti car would be a bad descision. But then again, its good enough for four people. The driver's seat is comfy too which makes the drive hassle free and non cumbersome.

The choice to buy Alto was a mutual decision in my family as we could only afford an entry level hatchback. Amongst the few options available, Alto suited all our expectations and needs. The car has given us a great driving experience both in city and on highways. Its comfortable, looks good, performs well and demands very low maintainence. I did not opt for power steering and that I feel was the only mistake I made. I feel super to own this car and it has become a part of family over the years. I am a really happy Maruti Suzuki alto customer.
