Final Words

 Not many cars are there that can  justify value for money as this. More than 3 years on since I purchased this car, I have not faced any problem so far not even a puncture thing. Very reliable and driver-friendly car. Best budget car for a small family.It moves fluidly, has excellent steering control. Engine worked perfectly with soundless performance. Space is some problem but that can be negotiable given the overall look and performance of the car. It has all the quality which a low value car should have. Bonnet is little longer but still I rate it best looking care among its peer. I love driving this car. Having used it for three years I would strongly recommend to go for this if you have small family and small budget.

Areas of improvement  

 Interior needs some improvement

 

ease of driving, comfortable interior, engine performanceLess spacious

Exterior The chrome grille gives it an imposing stance despite being a small car. Tail lamp treatment too is funky. Flowing design makes it still likeable, though we have seen for over a decade in the avtar of normal Alto

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Pleasing blue interiors, adequate space for four adults, 117 litres boot actually is more than adequate for city chores.

Dash may not be comparable to new age competitor eon. However, would surely conclude that this is a very functional dash that satisfies all essential requirements.

Could have provided few door pockets and seat back storage, which would have made the interiors even more complete.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox K10 engine is a silent performer. At times, feels too powerful for such a light car. Great power and impressive mileage of 15-16 in city drive. Expecting to go up further (improving with every refill of fuel). No drop in engine performance with airconditioning on. Gear shift too is soft and gear ratios for ideal for choked city traffic. Hardly a need to come below 3rd gear.

Ride Quality & Handling If we can moderate our expectations from an entry level economy car as this, it is truly worth the money paid. Being broader and shorter (compared to the tall boys in the same style), gives amazing stability even at 110KMPH speed on highways.

Final Words Bought this as a second car, primarily for city commuting. So impressed with driveability of this car, nowadays finding reasons to drive this only in all possible occasions

Will surely recommend this for all first time car buyers and also people who wish to own a second car for beating city traffic chaos

Areas of improvement Nothing other than build quality.

K10 engine, maneuverability in city traffic, awesome airconditioning, great mileageBuild quality can improve

Exterior

Nice

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Nice comfort level is good at the front level but not comfort so at the rear

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Fuel economy is great but promise satisfying towards mileage around 17Km on  average delivering right by i buyed just one month back and dorve 200o kms staright less than in 30 days.

Ride Quality & Handling

Overall comfort ride in comparsion with range of cars availbale in the market

Final Words

Over all seems be a good decision in choosing first cars in my carrier and in all excellent option in the market available compared with hyuandi or so.. in the same price range.

Areas of improvement  

Rear Space comfort level to increase  

Promotiom of ALTO K10 to be done as based on quality customer though the price are somewhat equals the price of Santro then why ALTO social status on market segment seems to be on lower end in comparsion. Maruti S needs to take several steps on this through adversting statergy.

Fuel Economy, exterior styleSound inside the cabin

Exterior

 Like the Old Alto . Looks good.

Some one say outdate . but i liked it

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Its basic .. but good ..
When compared to i10 and Eon i feld its not equal  but i dont mind.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

This is the main show point.. Its a rocket.  ..

Its  like a breeze .. simply feeling of flying .. So good..

May be power to weight ratio makes the performance of the car so good.

 

Ride Quality & Handling

Very Good in city..

Feels out of control when goiong beyond 100 KMs..  

Its easy handle in  80..

 

Final Words

Its such a good companion..  Love this car..

Its worth for the money we pay ..

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Still Using same cheap Plastic material , Less Space in Back Seats, Comfortable to driver for a height of people 5.5 inches

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Without AC Engine performance is very good, When AC is on you can see drop in the performance of the Car

Ride Quality & Handling

Ride Quality is Good till a speed of 80 kmph but for 100 kmph feels unsafe a bit shaky

Final Words

 Hi I am owner of Alto K10 since Sept 2011, I have almost driven 30K Kilometres, till now i have changed my Clutch plates, the time since i buyed the car i had problem shifting the gears, during my regular service i had asked the Fortpoint service centre in thane they said its ok, it will come some time but will stop when your engine would become smooth after certain kilometres, when i finished 15k Kilomoteres the car started making more noice, then i changed my service centre to Top gear in thane, advisor told me (appka gaadi jorr se ghade mein apta hai is liye awaj aata hai), after I drained 21K kilometres voice became more miserable and It was making a noice at alevel difficuilt for me to drive. again i went to same service centre Top Gear, one good meachanic identified its a issue of klutch plates he suggested me changed it and hurrey noice is gone.

I still have issue shifting gears, I still see clutch pad is not as smooth as other car clutch pad. sometimes Istill have issue shifting gears, as if I am changin BUS or TRUCK gears.

Now I want to say some good things about the car, Car gives a good Mileage, Maintenace cost is low, but would recommned not do any major repair work at authorised showroom beacuse they cheats a lot.

Car runs at a good speed of 80KMPH dont go above 90 as it becomes a beat shaky when AC is on.

Good milage in city & highway extremly good.

 

Overall its a good value for Car if I dint had any issue with my gear shifting, Car is good to buy

Great car comes with decent price and good mileage Comes with new k series 1000cc engine which makes driving very easy and comfortable. Excellent sleek and design but little in comfortable for a person above 5.8feets rest of all is satisfied. Comes with eagle head lamps. Good experience in city and Highway.

Good car and mileage but I had just battery problem as my battery wire was losed bu except that everything is good had a long time with it and 52000 kms and few memories. I am having this car since 2013 and it never gave me disappointment and gave me support. It’s interiors and very good and trunk is having many space.

The day when i bought it became the most wonderful day of my life this car is just amazing, i love it nd its a must buy car. I am having this car in white colour nd the lxi model. It's been 8 years since I've bought this car every one must have it its a great value for money choice. It was my father's favourite car.
