    Its my mate since ages

    Exterior

    I've got all VXI features in an LXI. The nose dive design though was catchy, the overall look is acceptable (Compared to the boxy WR). The Plastics holding the bumpers are bad.The A pillar blocks vision@specific seat poistion.The quality of paint is bad. The metal in use!! feels like PowderTin & doesn't give confidence on Highway.The missing spoiler @back lets the back screen spoil.

    Suggestions : Increase in overall body width(like Swift, UVA) will have more takers. (With new model the gear shift probm, I suppose is takn care of.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

    Suzuki-Change the seats! thigh support and back positions are currently bad. When Figo could do the magic why can't an Estilo? 

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

    The old Engine I am referring to is good for City,on Highway it's a fair one! Gearbox though was little notchy & you would've to find those 2nd & 5th gear. Economy -In my usage I have got 13.4Km in City with A/C and 18-18.6 on Highway. With A/C on at times you'll feel the power lag, but much better than an alto if you are considering. (1.1Ltr takes the point).

    Ride Quality & Handling

     In city, drive is fine If you get used to the gear changes. Above 80Km need to be careful- the steering is light and body rolling is evident and at 100 it does demand you to control your emotions. The milage though improves on Highway; with constant speed or lesser clutch usage.

    Final Words

     A car for city drive for 3to4 with enough laguage space & lesser back space. Get used to the Gear shift & Vibrations.

    Areas of improvement  

    Required on : Overall width of vehicle, change of seats, handling & quality of metal body & plastics clips in use.

    Good for 3or4, Space feel@frnt, A/C & Fuel eco.Ofcourse! the Maruti service.Gear shift(trans2nd gear),Cabin noise> 60K& control>90Km,Bench-type Bck seat,Plastics
