Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Looks Big but very uncomfortable to sit for rear seat passengers. Central console of A/c, CD occupies un-necessarry lot of leg space. Side mirrors are too wide & frequently get damaged in Ind traffic. Replacement cost is too heavy- One piece of this itm for VDI is about 4900/-.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox (1) Engine Revs with opening of fuel governer to maintain engine revs at very slow is serious discomfort for Driver as cars engine dos'nt behave as per Driver's Dezire in congusted traffic. This results in very frequent use of Clutch/Brakes thus adding wear & tear ultimately from pokets of owner. (2) Engine oil dipstic shows nil guage when nearly 900ml oil has been consumed, this is very misleading for the owner, as out of fear He may get a 3lt pak of engine oil & empty it into engine, thus actually over filling the engine by about nearly 2 lt & suffering consequential Loss himself. MSIL, have not described this issue in details anywhere in their manual. I raised this issue once with Standard Maruti Jbp, but could not get any satisfactory reply frm them or MSIL Engineer frm Bhopal. Issue is still pending at MSIL's end.
Final Words Looks Big but very uncomfortable to sit for rear seat passengers. Central console of A/c, CD occupies un-necessarry lot of leg space. Side mirrors are too wide & frequently get damaged in Ind traffic. Replacement cost is too heavy- One piece of this itm for VDI is about 4900/-.
Areas of improvement Enhancing internal space for front & rear passengers. Engine Revs problen, that was'nt there in old Swift/Dezire. Certainly, old Dezire/Swift were more comfortable in Engine behaviour at Low-Idling rpms(Low end rpm generally needed in thik Ind traffic).
