I cant understand the low mileage which this website claims. It says an average mileage of 14 or so.... Trust me... i have driven about 17000km now and was never able to get a mileage below 17 even with AC. I guess you should be racing if you get a mileage below 15. My usual mileage in Bangalore traffic conditions is 18+. And on highways, if the stretch is really good (MYS-BLR). I have clocked a mileage of around 24 without aiming for any mileage record.

    Hi All,
    I am Shrikant, M Planning to buy Swift VDI, the concerns what i have are:
    1. Do i need to go for VDI with ABS
    2. For a Monthly drive of around 800 to 1000 KM do i have to go for Diesel of Petrol Varient??
    3. What is the actual Mileage of Diesel & Petrol Variants?
    4. Does the Diesel Engine really makes attentive noise?
    5. Any best alternate for SWIFT in the same segment & Price Range?
    Would appreciate if any of you answer my queries.
    Regards.

    Hi Shrikant,

    Hopes this helps

    1) If you can effort to buy VDI with ABS its worth it. Its always better to have all the safety features available. Also, in future if you want to get ABS fitted its going to cost lot more and with some amount of pain.
    2) I would recommend a Diesel car as the prices of fuel will continue to raise
    3) You will get a milage of 16 - 18 within the city and about 22-24 out of city
    4) Diesel engine is really quite. Do a test drive
    Pailo is the next best option
