Well, I agree that fiat is certainly more peppy, but, it also guzzles on petrol mate - gives mileage of 9kmpl at the best. Yes it is tough - but, I am sure you will agree that it needs maintenance - come what may - and when it comes to maintenance, it is a huge drawback - all arguments end there - if not for the pain one has to take maintaining it - even with tie-up with Tata Motors, it would certainly have been the king of hatchbacks (save mileage aspects).

Swift outsells Palio because of the maintenance chores - it is so bad that you see more than 2 Swift ZXis for every palio sport - Do you think people are blind??

 ur right on the maintenance part, i guess this is the major draw back.

On the current day, Swift ZXi is the most feature filled car for a near 6 lakhs on road price. ZXi now has all the features you can think of and most importantly, it is the first car in the segment with integrated audio system with steering mounted controls - wake up Hyundai - cannot expect a match from Tatas anyway as the focus is on Nano.

The feature list of ABS, Airbags, tilt steering, audio system, alloy wheels -------- the list is endless and is truely a package now - only drawback - space

If you are less than 6 feet and none of the family is about 6 feet - the obvious choice is a Swift for under 6 lakhs.

Cheers,

KP

Hi, I have my cousin who had a Palio for 5 yrs drove about a lac and 20 K kms on that 1.6.

Believe me when i say htis, Fiat Palio - Is just a kick arse car, no swift or Ford Ikon can beat this .

I have touched about 140 Kms / hr, the drive is toooooooo stable, the cornering what it does is pure MAGIC, with the rigth tyre pressure....

Close ur eyes go pick up a palio 1.6, thats my choice..

- Nitin

@ Bhanuj, thanks for that, would you know if there are any discounts available on the MJ SDX model, as my bro is booking one very shortly, we enquired and the showroom guys here in blore were v adamant that thr are no dicounts or free bee's on this MJ series.

However the 1.1 Petrol - Comest with 20 K cash discount and the 1.6 - Comes with 40 K cash discount

Pls confirm is it the same across INDIA?
