Best value

I Bought Maruti Suzuki Dzire in exchange of my old car Hyundai Santro. Since Mumbai roads have lot of traffic, automatic transmission in budget was default choice. Due to budget constraints options were fairly limited. Hence Maruti Suzuki Dzire VXi AGS was chosen Pros Looking at the available features, the Maruti Suzuki Dzire punches well above it's class with led headlamps, cruise control, driver seat height adjustments (even in VXi spec), adjustable rear headrest and back seat center armrest. Even the transmission is fairly improved and fairly responsive for sedate driving. The car remains stable at 100 kmph speed with no engine noise( using full synthetic oil) . Braking is very good, steering is light and easy. The car can be used even on bad roads without any fear(personal experience). Maruti service is satisfactory. In case of damage, spares are reasonably priced and available. Cons: Sheet metal thickness is average and prone to dents. Sedate driving is required due to overall build as minor accident can possibly cause more damage than expected. Automatic transmission lags in initial gears during spirited driving. Suspension is bit hard compared to other cars. Boot underside had exposed structure with no cover. Very thin tyres are provided on lower models( still using them due to good mileage).
