First of all thanks to Maruti motors on behalf of your first time car buying family members..actually when we thought of buying a car first time in our life the only thing which comes to our mind is Maruti ..thanks for that..buying Alto was my dream , after buying I felt the car was amazing in this segment one of the feelgood cars we can have.its exterior feels a bit slaggy but it's performance it's awesome .it can climb hills without any issues tats when I felt okay we have spent our money on a useful thing..the best thing about Alto its service cost is also too affordable tats y we can boldly suggest alto to first time car buyers.maintanence is also too low ..the only con i felt is I am 6 feet if I am driving my parallel seat passenger can't enjoy their ride it's also a 4 seater car and other than that one of the best car in its price segment.
