      Exterior

      Design is good. The passenger side ORVM (Left) was not there at the time of purchase. Since the Vxi Variant has been launced very recently, the same is made available as an optional accessory. Design of the front grill is not good at all.

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

      The quality of the plastic should really be improved but, then again the price of the car is also reasonable so, the buyer will have to console themselves. Power Window feature is available for the front windows only. Recently launched Vxi Variant has Power Window for Both Front and Rear. What is unfortunate is that a Lxi User can't even upgrade the Manual Rear Windows to power window since it is not available as an optional accessory.

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

      I have noticed abnormal vibration in engine after 2 months of buying this car. when the engine running in idle, one can feel the vibration in steering wheels, pedal, doors ORVMs etc. Maruti Service Technicians claim this to be normal for this car.

      Maruti claims the Mileage of this car to be 22.74 Kmpl in ideal driving condition and ofcourse without AC. Now so far what I have got is 13 kmpl (Avg) with AC in city traffic condition. I hope this will increase upto 14-15 Kmpl after second servicing.

      Gearbox is qutie smooth but, there is a problem with the Reverse Gear. The car makes a noise when put in to Reverse Gear. Sometimes the driver may struggle to put it in reverse. I believe this problem is also present in the Alto and Alto K-10 Model.

      Ride Quality & Handling

      Ride quality and Handling is very smooth, perfect for City Driving.

      Final Words

      Overall its value for money. if you have a family of 4, Fuel Economy is a concern and you don't need a car with great pick up and all, go for an Alto 800.

      Areas of improvement  

      Maruti should work on reducing the engine vibration which shakes the entire car. Power Windows for rear should be made available as an optional accessory. Also Front Grill design should be changed to a much better looking one.

    • Very good car for a small family
      12 years ago | Lakshminarayanan

      Exterior

       Even though its not an impressive model, its not bad too. tail gate have been well designed and its shows lots of difference from the old alto. front look too good.

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

       Interior is much better than old alto. dash board plastic is little better when compare with old alto. however the rear seats are still cramped.

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

       The F8D Engine is doing well. As Torque and BHP is slightly increased, i didnt find any difficulty during the initial time. thanks for maruti engineers.

      Ride Quality & Handling

       Ride quality is quiet impressive, suspension has lots of improvement and shows lots of difference from the old alto.

      Final Words

       When compare with Eon the new alto 800 is very far from. but the rate is much better and its value for money

    • Great car
      5 years ago | Amartya Dutta
      It's not a dream car but Alto will not disappoint you. This is a smooth driving experience. Main point is milage. Almost 2.5k per year maintenance. For most affordable stylish car is definitely Alto.
