Worth the deal - Awesome family car...

Exterior - Exteriors are fine and good looking. I always prefer Silky Silver as the choice of color. It really eases the cleaning and polishing work to a great extent. Attractive Head Lamps and very good styling and design. Rear side has above average looks.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) - Dashboard is good. Distance to Empty, Average Fuel Consumption, etc are good feature additions. These were not available in previous ALTO LXi. Seats are really comfortable. Better to go for a premium seat cover immediately after purchase. Enough leg room available for driver and co-driver. Rear seat passengers can also be seated comfortably . Overall a good space management technique handled by Suzuki. Rear-Boot volume is adequate.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox - Automatic transmission sometimes makes you feel low on pick-up. In due course, it gets adjusted as you drive. Engine is super smooth. The automatic version also enables you to do the gear shifting manually. A wonderful feature. Just a little learning and then you get set off with everything... Fuel economy is good. But only 15 kmpl within city drive.

 

Ride Quality & Handling - Ride quality is very smooth. A very sensitive accelerator. It is designed with much precision in the Automatic version. Really good to handle. Can be better if traction control is present to an extent.

 

Final Words - I would suggest the buyer to go for this car. It is hassle free and low end maintenance. Any Suzuki engine is durable and offers you the same ride experience up to 1 Lakh KMs (provided the car is maintained as per company standards). If the buyer is preferring to self-maintenance, then I would always suggest him/her to get Maruti GA (Genuine Accessories). For clutch plate replacement and other important mechanical works, I would always suggest these be done at authorized service centers...

 

Areas of improvement - Little more accessories and additional features can be granted for the VXi model.
