    DRIVING:
    i'll start with the cons first
    1.For a car with a wheel base of 2500 mm and length of nearly         4450mm interior space is very less.
    2.Rear seats r not very comfortable and the arm rest is way to big and is not comfortable enought for 3 passengers to fit in
    3.One can actually hear engine n valve noise inside the cabin which was not there to be found in baleno
    4.Fuel efficiency will not be very good cause it weighs abt 1200 killo's and already baleno was not very frugal.i know its a diff series engine but still
    5. Lack of torque, car rattles when picked up from second gear from 0
    Now the good part
    1. Jam packed with features, You name it n she has it(please before naming the features also look at the price,dont expect seat massagers from a 7 lakh rupee car)
    2 .Interior quality is good. a big step ahead from maruti. step inside and u wont blv its a maruti
    3. Ground clearance is high 190mm(only is the zxi, becuz of the tyres, otherwise its 180 for the vxi model).so u can slam ur cars on the speed breakers withouth damaging the base.
    4. Driving positing is comfortable(since u can adjust the steering wheen n the seats).thought its not as comfortable as fiesta's.even whicle driving at high speeds its not as planted as fiesta.
    Comparison with the Class
    Its a mix package.....
    U dont get the performance of CITY V-TECH but its abt a lakh cheaper than it
    U dont get fuel efficiency of CITY ZX but it comes much much more loaded than city
    U dont get that sporty and driver's car feel like that of FIESTA'S but u get everything else like space, features and comfort.
    VERNA petrol n AVEO dont have much to offer... except comfortable ride(both) and interior quality(AVEO) apart from this SX4 beats them in almost every aspect.
    so final verdict....city still rules becuz its the most frugal and refined car in this segment(apart from this she sucks.....sluggish performance, artificial steering feel, awkward sitting pistion for the driver, front view not satisfactor)

    if u look at the price, equipments and huge maruti network i think it is worth going for SX4!!!
    P.S please wait for the final verdict from the professionals
    styling, equipmentsless spacious than it shud be
