    DRIVING:
    Few hundred kilometers

     

    Exterior Exterior is a defenite improvement from Old Alto. Front view looks like a sedan. Rear view resembles Old Zen.

     

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior is an area where Alto K10 lags badly. The driver seat is cramped. If the height of the driver is more than 5.5 feet, he/she will brush the steering while entering and coming out. The plastics are cheap and the dashboard is the same of Alto. Features like power windows,Digital tachomenter,fuel indicator are very good for this price range. Space and comfort is similar to old Alto. No complaints.

     

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox This is where K10 scores heavily. K Series engine in Alto is a technical marvel. The car reaches 120 effortless. I can easily say this car can beat Swift in terms of speed. The power to weight ratio is very high. The car weighs just 765 kg. K10 gives 17 kmpl mileage with 50% A.C now. The mileage will increase for sure. This mileage is the best in segment. Gear shift needs a defenite improvement. 

     

    Ride Quality & Handling Handling is very good since the car comes with power steering. It is very useful in city driving. For 3.65 Onroad - K10 offers superb engine, power steering, power windows and fantastic mileage.

    Though there are some minor drawbacks, this car is a worthy buy.

     

    Final Words Go for it.

     

    Areas of improvement Gear shift, Driver seat position, Plastics quality.
