After doing some research, I found out that in the mid segment between 4.5 to 5.0 Lacs, there is no match to Swift Vxi in terms of reliability and performance.I didn't opt for the diesel version because I drive less. Maruti dealers in Noida are very busy people making big money and generally don't value customer's time. Imagine, my dealer was even reluctant to sell accessories!! I had to wait 3 hours to get my car fitted with accessories like gear lock, parking sensor etc. On the positive side the dealer gave some freebies and a good exchange price for my old M800. On road it cost me around Rs.4.9 lacs fitted with accessories like stereo, parking sensors etc. Apart from the dealer, I am fully satisfied with my car.
The engine is so silent and vibration free that it is difficult to know at signals. The car responds well to throttle, braking response is good. Parking sensors are very useful while reversing. Swift is a fast car, it silently speeds up to 70kmph even before you notice! I drive carefully and avoid over speeding. I use all the three mirrors while driving and parking. So far I am lucky to avoid even minor scratches.
On the negative side, the car is a petrol guzzler, it gives around 10-11 kmpl with AC on and blower at position 3. Always I drive with AC on and stereo blaring, of course with windows pulled up. I admit being addicted to AC and stereo. Swift is for those having petrol station and ATM near by like me. If you want to save on petrol then hold on to old Maruti-800. I was told that fuel economy will improve after 3000kms and third servicing. Let's hope so. I will keep keep you guys informed.
