Maruti Suzuki Estilo User Reviews

New engine, more mileage, new look, better interior, EURO 4 ready makes this car best choice among other same range Cars (Santro, WagonR, A-Star, Spark, Indica).Removed all the major faults from old modelSome-how costly, Lack of security features

Exterior Excellent looks,feminine design, good colour variants, attractive outlook just as mini innova.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Front seats are more spacious ,contrary the rear seats lacks the space for leg space, less spacious width wise with short thigh support for rear seats and bench back seats. but overall good looking interior, rear seat even comfortable for small family.

Exterior

A GOOD SEXY LOOKING CAR, WITH IN A LESS THAN 4 LAKHS BUDGET, THE BODY LOOKS ARE VERY ATTRACTIVE AND DYNAMIC. AND TALL FEATURES ARE REALLY GOOD.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

GOOD LOOKIN INTERIORS, WITH BEIGE AND BROWN, HOWEVER MARUTI MAY CONSIDER GOING FOR MORE STURDY INTERIORS, HOWEVER IT IS BEAUTIFUL, WITH POWER WINDOWS IN FRONT AND NO OHTER CARS IN THIS BUDGET HAS. SEATS ARE CONFORTABLE AND WITH TALL FEATURES.  VERY GOOD WITH EVEN FOR PEOPLE WITH MORE THAN 6FT HEIGHT. GOOD LEG SPACE AND THE BEST PART OF IT IS A GOOD BOOT SPACE ONE CAN CARRY LOTS OF LUGGAGE.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

ENGINE PERFORMANCE IS GOOD AS OBSERVED, I EXPERIENCED A MILEAGE OF ABOUT 19 KPL WITH AC AFTER 1ST SERVICING AND IN CITI CONDITIONS ABOUT 17 KPL. GEAR BOX IS BEHAVING WELL.

 

Ride Quality & Handling

GOOD EXPERIENCE IN RIDING, SHOCK ABSORBERS ARE EFFECTIVE, AND RIDE IS VERY SMOOTH, GOOD TURNING RADIOUS WHICH IS GOOD FOR HANDLING IN CITIES.

 

Final Words

A VALUE FOR MONEY CAR FOR THE BUDGET OF UPTO 4 LAKHS.  ONE CANNOT THINK OF MORE THAN THIS LUXURY IN A CAR WITH A BUDGET BETWEEN 3.7 LAKH TO 4 LAKHS. OR SPENT MORE AND GET A LUXURY CAR.  FINALLY I CAN SAY THAT THIS IS THE BEST OPTION WITH ABOVE SAID BUDGET.

 

Areas of improvement

MARUTI CAN CONSIDER FOR IMPROVING THE STRENGTH OF INTERIORS AND THE CERNTER PORTION OF DASH BOARD, ESPECIALLY IN MUSIC SYSTEM AREA.  HOWEVER IN THE PRESENT CONDITION ALSO IS GOOD.

 

GOOD EXTERIORS, MORE SPACE, FUEL ECONOMYINTERIORS CAN BE MADE MORE STURDY, HOW EVER IT LOOKS GOOD

 

I bought my New Zen Estilo with K Series engine 2 weeks back. I did 350 KMs so far. I felt the car the most luxurious and extra-fittings in this price range.

The striking points with the new car: Very comfortable seating, perfect for long drives without hurting your back bones. (I am a final year med student). The seats are high placed, so that you need not bend your leg too. Much compared to other cars like Astar, i10, spark, santro. Rear seats are comfortable too.

-Smooth driving

-Easy handling

-Very smooth gear shift and gear engaging

-Super stearing

-Excellent interior with this price tag

-Spacious front and back space 

-Decent boot space.

The car looks like an Innova at cheap price. Very happy with car. Once all glasses are raised you hear no disturbance from outside. AC is powerful. I have driven A STar, Santro, Spark. From all those i found this car very different from all aspects. As many say the A Pillar and the extra beam theay have given blocks the side view. and creates a potential blind spot. But once you are used to the car this is not a matter any more.

The company says mileage of 19. But initially I am not much satisfied with mileage. I get a 12.7 mileage initially with AC. I use the car mostly to shuttle between my college and hostel which is around 1 km far, plus. There is a steep hill in between, so I dont expect much mileage at this stage. I have not done my first service. Hoping to get around at least 17 in my driving conditions. I dont know why there is sever fogging of the windscreen and side glasses. Its rainy season, if AC on for long, fogs outside the windscreen. If AC off, fogs inside. May be i will get, some improvement after using the car for some time. And I had to change the factory fitted horn as it varies in sound at some times and also that the entire car can feel the vibration while blowing the horn. Now i am okay with the new, Roots skoda type horn. Exterior of the car is very appealing, it looks almost like innova put to starvation.. lol :)

Though the 2 tone  interior color  looks appealing, the quality of plastics should be improved.

Comfortable seatings both front and back. Interior styleA Pillar, Horns

I went to buy A-Star, but though I loved it, I was a little concerned about the lack of boot space (which for a family person is always a factor - may not be, if I was 10 years younger). I did not originally even consider Zen, being dissapointed by the shape of the earlier version.  But when I saw the new refined look in 2009 model, i felt it looked more balanced. I took a test drive and was instantly thrilled by the engine power (almost felt like a mini SUV!!). The high seats and view of the road was also a plus.  I tested this in Jun in Delhi (peak summers) and the AC was amazing - may be one of the biggest factor why I bought this car.

I have driven this car for aout 10,000 KMs now in ~ 1 year and so far this has been hassle free - no maintenance issues, still powerful, AC still good, looks still trendy.

Overall given I never thought I would buy a Zen to actually liking the car a lot, this has clearly exceeded my expectations.

AC, Power, Handling in the cityA - Bar restricts view;

 

Exterior Looks are good, Though I dont look much for it :-)

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Quite good. ACs are very effective (As any Maruti Vehicle).

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Very good for city use. Have driven it mostly with 2/3 people in it. Acceleration is good to get an edge in traffic. Yet to check it in Highways :-). Max speeds are yet to be checked. Not looking very sturdy above 100kmph (With my limited tests in ring road). Fuel economy is good. I am getting 13+ in city with AC.

 

Ride Quality & Handling There is a small concern here. only at some specific speeds, Around 60 kmph (with some range of engine rpm ) there is a vibration felt. Reason not known. Hope its not of balancing. Continuing even after my first service. Other wise good.

 

Final Words Good City CAR.

 

Areas of improvement With my limited experience above 100kmph, power steering can be tuned for sensitivity at higher speeds. looks to be not sturdy at those speeds.

 

Fuel Economy, Power Steering, Front Power windowsDoes not have a power o/p for charging mobiles, No ORVM adjustment from inside

 

Exterior Good exterior in a new version in estilo rather than old i think it's a best deal for me in comparision between 350000 to 400000 price range cars i have drive spark alto santro etc. but i like estilo its my openion choice is yours.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Good interior according to me than others in price range and you have got AC Power window Power strering in lxi in price range 380000. i think it's a best deal.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox When we talk obout performance and fuel economy i say very good for middle class family , it'e a middle class family car.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Very good riding and handling when you drive than u understand.

 

Final Words It's a best deal and a totaly a family car 5 person can sit easily. I will say maruti is the best low mantaince cost, good fuel economy, value for money. 

 

Areas of improvement Nothing

 

Good Fuel Economy Good InteriorCan't

 

Exterior New version is good looking than old it's good looking and a very comfort to drive an if wetalk obout after sales service maruti is best.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) iI am 5'11 it's a very comfortable for me than 350000 to 400000 price version cars. if i talk obout features it's also good. bad interior in term of i10, santro.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Good fuel economy in city ride i am geting 15KM  . i just buy it for city riding. still there is a same problem in gearbox but it's little bit over come in a new version.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Good ride quality and handling but still gearshifting problem is bad. i must say it;s smoot very smoot

 

Final Words Overall if u r thinking about buying a car in price range 350000 to 400000 i think Estilo is best option.

 

Areas of improvement 2009 Lxi is good looking and a good fuel economy according to me area of improvement is interior and gear problem.
