Full Review

I have purchased A-star Zxi on 20/3/2009 at Competent Auto Mandi H.P. at price 4,12000/-
On the first day I get its tank full.
I travel on hills up to Kothi, Solang nallha near Rohtang top at Manali. and some other hilli track. I and my wife (newley learned driving) almost 50:50 distance. We travel total 545 km. and again top up its fuel tank by 30.85 ltr. and got 17.6 km per ltr. while my old 800 was giving milage of 12-13 on same tracks.

  Pick up is very good, it is smooth on rough roads.
  The only problem i faced is right side view while taking right side turn on single lane hilly track.
 Except boot space its is a supereb car in this price tag.

Before buying it I search that There is no other car @412000/- which provide you:-  ABS+Duel Airbags+CD (Integrated 4 speakers)+Central locking+Power windows+Power steering+Fuel efficency etc.

These kind of reviews doesn't hold any value. A reviewer himself posting his review as good review. May  be this has been posted before the compulsory user name made into effect. Now you can see how it was been mis-utilized by the advertisers.

Just for a minute Mr.Geminiauto.

You cannot compare A star with i10.

i10 has better pickup with A/C, were as ASTAR lags behind. i have driven ASTAR many times.

i accept that it has got good highway stability, but not a good city car when compared to i10.

And the Engine refinement and quality cannot even match i10 1.2 kappa.

And as you know, indias most fuel efficient car above 800cc segment is """i10 1.2 kappa""" (As per ARAI - 19.81km/l). so even alto, ASTAR, etc. cannot be compared to i10 regarding the mileage also.

So, overall, i10 is a good car.

Maruti A Star is the only car that could give ABS, EBD and front seatbelt pretensioners all within the 4 lakh price range, no other small car has so many features at affordable price. Also, A Star gives a superb mileage of 19 kmpl consistently. It is rock solid even at above 130 kmph speeds. A star is both a city star and highway star

yes its a good value for money car. And best in its class

A-star is the Ideal car for city runabout. A-star's performance is unmatchable even by large sedans in highways. Who wants extra space in city cars. I'm owner of A-star for six months. You can't go wrong with A-star..I10 is meant for ladies
