Full Review

My search for a joyful self driving car which gives driving pleasure, power and comforts ended today with the test drive for SX4 provided by Ambal Autos, Trichy Road Coimbatore. The sales persons were more than cordial and showed both Swift and SX4. Swift is not bad but pales into insignificance when compared to SX4.  When you take up the steering wheel of SX4, you can feel the comfort of a powerful car. I have test driven Ford Fiesta, Honda City, Aveo, Verna, All New Jazz, Swift, Dzire, Logan, Indigo, Accent  and came to near frustration of ending up with no car fulfilling my expectation of self driving pleasure and comfort. But thank God, you got an Indian car which gives you perfect driving comfort, power and pleasure that is SX4. I LOVE SX4. Other things like not so great interiors, back reverse light etc can be just ignored if you opt for a car which gives you a great driving pleasure with absolute comfort.

Guys just enjoy this nice car. I am a very satisfied owner jus love it for its unmatched driving pleasure. I test drove Fiesta, Verna, Linea and New City before i decided on this. No regrets at all... I am falling love with it over and over again !!!

As on this date, i have driven about 2000 km. But i find VXI model is not so comfortable to drive compared to zxi models which were test driven. But passengers were comfortable. Seat position, seat covers are not comfortable at all in VXI. Maruti 800 is less tiresome than SX4 vxi. I plan to do upholstery and change the seat covers. In full load, you cannot be care free with potholes and speed breakers. It gets a beating if you are care free. Overall, in reality VXI is not comfortable to drive.

Finally the car was delivered to me yesterday after a waiting period of more than 45 days. My choice was vxi with pearl white metallic some some interesting addl accessories.

i have booked an SX4 car under the promise that it is in pool and would be delivered in 15 days, but not even informed about despatch even after 1 month. ithink SX4 has delivery problems

Pratit, it is good to hear that some improvements are going in sx4. Do u have any idea about changes? I have chosen Arctic White with 2 coats of Teflon. I plan to travel lot during day time so white reduces the radiation and improves ac effects. Black with teflon coating will reduce some heat absorption. You are going for vxi or zxi?

Kovaipurush, i appreciate at your decision in choosing SX4, i myself have booked one for myself - just waiting for some minor changes Maruti is going thru in SX4 & expect to get my car in 10-12 days. I've opted for Black colour, what about you?

Mahe i appreciate your love for our Motherland. But the title means only to highlight the driving comfort of SX4 even in roads having potholes, speed breakers, congested trafic, bumper to bumper driving. It is not meant to degrade our roads or anything like that. We have many 4 lane express highways connecting major cities of India which is all real world class. So try to understand in the proper perspective which has got only one meaning.. SX4 is good even in bad roads. Ok.
