Great vehicle for long drives and city drives too.

I am in LUV with this vehicle for several reasons. First, its Maruti, which understands Indian Roads more than any one in the industry. Secondly, its an option of 7 seater, and I have driven with 8 includng kids. It becomes a bit congested with so many peopkle, but, what the heck, we are all together. What better you culd ask for in a long drive of 700kms etc. Otherwise we had to split into two cars. 

The mileage is a plus plus here. It has been giving me a mileage of 15 in city. The pickup could have been better, but what the heck, it runs. For my usage, I drive it to my kid's school and office everyday, and I feel the comfort of driving a car like this would not have come in any other car. Now the surprising element here is, I sold my Honda City to buy this.... :),  yes and I have no regrets AT ALL. Honda never understood Indian conditions and they will never. They are a stubborn company and will continue to build cars with low ground clearance and so delicate parts. 

Now after driving 10000kms in the last 5 months(I know its high, but I did some 4-5 long drives too), I am really happy with my vehicle and trust me, its better than Honda City in many ways. Overall, I recommend it to all Family people.
