Bought last Friday, done 300 Kms during weekend in Gurgaon Delhi. Results


Average 9.3 KMPL (50% on Delhi Gurgaon road, 50% incity -Delhi/Gurgaon). I try to keep engine RPM below 2000 by frequently shifting gear. This make drive as smooth as honda and good mileage


Superb feeling of control; Car responds to your command immediately. Super stability; feels like wheels are embedded on road without sacrificing smoothness


Only big drawback is lack of power which is accentuated in 2nd gear or negotiating a climb.


CRV vs. Vitara : Buy Vitara if


If fast acceleration is not very important and one can live with low power (and I am one of those)


Luxury Interiors (Beige Leather) is not a MUST have


Diff of 4 Lakhs is significant for you


Overall : I am glad I bought Vitara

    very practical. i also test drived the vitara recently, overall its a good option as "compact" suv on Indian roads. The only thing lacking is the under rated power, specially in second gear, I recomend to all suv lovers. Worth giving a try !
