I personally belong to a middle class family which have it's annual income of around 7-8 lacs. In 2016 my father decided to buy a car at age of 50 years. Yess! it's too old but this is middle class family. Being an automobile freak my father told me to choose a car between 5-5.5 lakhs and cheap to maintain. I was confused between just launched Tata tiago, hyundai eon and Grand i10, and maruti suzuki wagonR and celerio. After doing research and visiting car dealers I found that only wagonR is the car which is value for money for which we were searching for.
Maruti Suzuki being a most trusted car manufacturer in India delivers a better product to it's customers. We took test drive of Tata tiago, hyundai eon and grand i10 and maruti suzuki wagonR and celerio. But among these wagonR have the most practical and roomy cabin. Rear seat space is more in wagonR among above mentioned cars.
So finally we bought our new family member home on 11th Oct 2016 and from that day there are lot of memories we enjoyed with it.
Also the ride quality is better, yes it becomes quiet bouncy at high speeds but you will get used to it.
The 999cc K10 petrol engine gets enough punch to give you that joy. Steering is quiet smooth and easy to drive in city traffic. The looks of car are not that appealing and also it's height gives it a weird look yeah!! but it is what gives car a roomy feel. The bootspace given is enough for weekend trip. The rear passenger legroom is also nice.
In two years I haven't observed any issue that will not your pocket friendly. Even if you are on holidays and if your car troubles Maruti Suzuki have planted their service centres everywhere in India. Maruti Suzuki is known for it's low maintainance products don't worry about it.
Pros:
1. Great deal under 6 lacs
2. Low maintainance and servicing cost
3. Easy to drive and cut through traffic
4. Lot of space and legroom
5. Aerodynamics should have been improved
Cons:
1. Plastic and Metal quality should be improved
2. Bluetooth connectivity for infotainment is missing
3. Rear A/C vents should be given
Other from these everything is better
If you wanna buy a new family car under 6 lacs. These is must buy car.
