    Its worthless to go for this car now a days.  Old Fashioned.  Much better options available in market @ similar price range.  Fuel economy is good but no more attraction since other players also fulfulling needs.

    Exterior Well.. Its tall boy, rather i will say its tooo tall boy.  Such a hight is problem since vehicle became quite unstable.  Not at all eye catcher.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior is very good, i am satisfied with plastic quality and the equipments they provided in VXi model.  All necessary things there... power steering, ac, power windows, rear wiper, fog lamp, music system, tachometer all necessary features included.  Good decision of maruti suzuki.

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is LESS powerful, 998 cc is short, capacity should have been 1150 atleast. When u drive on CNG mode, its quite difficult to pick on with AC on.  in 2nd gear no power at all, poor pick up.  Check the difference on any signal where u find wagon R CNG is shooting up later than other cars.  On petrol mode, engine is ok ok.  But if all 5 passanger on board & u driving on a hill u cant drive other than 1st gear if u on CNG mode. Fuel economy is impressive. for better understanding of readers:

    Petrol mode:

    City/AC= 15 kmpl

    Highway/AC= 19 kmpl (@ ~ 75-90 kmph)

    CNG Mode:

    City/AC= 22 kmpkg

    Highway/AC= 27 kmpkg  (@ ~ 75-90 kmph)

    Nothing special in Gearbox.  Normal gearshifting, Not buttery gear shift

    Ride Quality & Handling Here is main problem.  Seating design very bad.  driver seat too low and dashboard too highted. You cannot see properly around.  While city driving its very bad experience.  needs to take efforts for visibility hence driving become UNPLEASANT. Right side mirror & beam is obstacle for drive.

    Final Words Fuel economy is attractive but it can not USP of the car, since other cars also launched with good fuel economy.  Personally i dont find any reason to go for this car.  But the highted people more than 6 feet only find the comfort.  Underline my word, more than 6 feet, which are not all customers have this hight.

    Areas of improvement Engine capacity.  Seat hight, car hight.

    Space, Fuel Economy, FeaturesLow visibility, Poor pick up, Too tall design
