When Gear box,steering like paraphernalia are borrowed from swift to such Pseudo sedan SX4 how can we expect quality?

SX4 is a failure. You can see the result on road.It is effortlessly outnumbered by City,Verna and Fiesta(Petrol versions)

It wasn't so early.  Like I have said elsewhere, when it was lauched it gave a tough competition to even a car like Honda but its own market suffered on launch of Dzire.

I am Unfortunate SX4 owner fallen in trap of high ground clearance.Bullock cart is better than this vehicle as for as at least ground clearance is concerned!!!.The performance is underpowered .Driving is not peppy and Gear box poses hardships during long drive.AC is shabby.So i can conclude that it is unsafe vehicle.Dealers though are everywhere they are not learned enough to consider real problems.They better be called "Maruti water wash service centers" !

yes the dzire seems to be the SX4's undoing - shooting oneself in the foot- now thats an adage that maruti can refer to.

But things will look up when the SX4 Diesel is launched then it will be a two way battle between the linea and the SX4

Like I have said elsewhere (replied to above in another thread)... One of my brother-in-law located at Surat owns SX4.  He travels a lot (city & more on highway). This is his 3rd car & he knows quite a lot about engines.  I have never heard him complaining about it - I've discussed a lot about SX4 with him.  Nevertheless, I have driven the car for 385 kms with one break. I, therefore, disagree with your review/findings.

 

You may create/start a new thread if you wish to have further discussion. Thanks.

About my original question of fitting SX4 in the price-offering matrix vis-a-vis Ford ,Honda and Aveo - can someone say how Skoda fits in it terms of price,quality,and after-sales service;or des it not fit in this price band at all?

Skoda owners are a dificult lot to get hold of.
