The Official Maruti Suzuki Splash Thread

What car is the splash going to replace. I read that it would replace the WagonR

Even I had read so but it is only a speculation.  It’s quite unlikely that it will replace WagonR, given the market & popularity it has.  Splash may, however, come with the 65ps petrol engine of WagonR / Estilo.  The other options are (it is undecided as of now) that it may come with the 1.2 ltr four cylinder 86ps petrol engine or a 1.3 ltr 75ps diesel engine (Swift).

In any case (engine), like I have stated before in this thread, Splash is expected to come equipped with all the safety features like energy-dispersing frame, airbags, ABS and brake assist in addition to electronic brake force distribution. Electronic stability program might also be offered. It will be practical & ideal compact car.  All this will come at a premium price – ahead of WagonR.

well if the diesel is anything like the swift VDi, that would be SOME CAR! I dont like taller cars but the engine would make it an inviting purchase....

By the way, even I don't like tall cars but the fact is that they are more comfortable because of 'total space' inside - for instance, though Santro & WagonR are equally spacious, WagonR is relatively more comfortable. 

But the disadvantage is that they, especially small segment cars, do not have that good a road grip as normal height cars have - especially on high speed / highway & are, therefore, more prone to highspeed accidents.
