    Exterior

     Outstanding. Front design with projector lamps is superb, with nicely placed Fog lamps. Alloy Wheels, Rear Combination Tail Lamps, Bumpers & Side Skirts, name anything, they are first class. Last but not least the trendy Rear Spoiler adds a bit of style factor, which also improves Fuel Efficiency by reducing the down thrust of the car(a bit technical)

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

     Seating is good and comfortable. Good thigh support, legroom & Head room. Excellent Music System, need not install woofer for Electrifying Sound, the company fitted speakers does it all. Boot Space needs to be increased a bit. It would be better if Seat Height adjuster is provided. Need a leather wrapped steering wheel in the VXi variant too, as the steering tends to slip at times.

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

     Gearbox is good. Fuel Economy is outstanding, around 15 KMPL in city and an over whelming 24 KMPL in highway rides if done with care. Engine Performance is at par with its class, good pickup, good torque delivery even at lower engine speeds. The only issue with my machine is, it doesn't take-off neatly from being stationary. Don't know whether it's the problem only with my beast.

    Ride Quality & Handling

     Excellent ride quality. Manoevours curves easily at high speeds, but need to be careful at too high speeds as its width-to-height ratio is very less. The steering responds quickly & neatly at low speeds as well as highway speeds. Doesn't make too much noise on bumps & pot-holes.

    Final Words

     A very good Value For Money car in INDIAN market, which every one should consider while buying. Good start for first time buyers as well as experienced users.

    Areas of improvement  

     Maruti Suzuki needs to extensively market this machine. Saw just 3 cars On-road in Bangalore in 2 months. They also should give exciting offers on similar lines if Wagon-R. Boot space need to be improved. Painting also needs to be done carefully, my car has a bit irregular Finishing.
