Maruti Suzuki S-Cross [2014-2017] User Reviews

in compact suv car this is my first car s cross 1.3 Zeta i really love this car Compare to other s cross has good features good mileage cool looking Suspension are good overall performance is Very well sitting comfortable is nice and good legrooms best SUV for Indian Roads like offroads as well as Hiways also

The overall experience with the car has been great. I have driven more than 47000 Kms. over the last 1.5 years. The car is sturdy and feels firm on the road. It inspires confidence. The car is currently returning an impressive mileage of 19 km to a liter. However, the most irritating part about the car is that within 1.5 yrs it has started rattling. Maruti needs to do something about the built quality and ensure that the body/plastic/glass rattling doesn't happen. Learn from the European cars.

Exterior The Exterior is not great when compared to Hyundai Creta. Looks more ike SX 4 in front but the rear is nice. 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) You get a good feel inside with spacious rear leg room, good view for the Driver seat though there is no adjustment facility for lower end models, good knee support,good storage facilities though boot space could be better.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The Sigma model 1.3 has the proven diesel engine and good drivability especially in a city like Mumbai. average at 15 Kms in city driving conditions is very good. Gear box is sleek. steering feel is good, and the initial drag of the diesel engine is seen as compared to petrol ones though it does not hamper much. Highway driving is also decent though not great and the JK tyres are not giving the quality of drive that otherwise the car might provide. Change tyres if you can at the earliest if you drive highways frequently. ABS , Dis breaks and airbags being standard equipments are handy and give you a sense of confidence while driving at 3 digit speeds.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is good assisted by good suspension and disc brakes though at low speeds the stiffnes of the same throw you up from the seats. Head lamps are not great during night times and if you are frequent highway driver better change the headlamps with more powerful lights. I wish Maruti provide the project lamp in all the models. It is no t available as an accessory also. I am yet to take a for a long drive but the feel of the car has been good. 

Final Words Maruti has reduced the priice by about Rs60000 on all 1.3 models and by 2 lakhs on all 1.6 models. Those who bought the cars earlier have been taken for a ride and Maruti should provide free upgrades by way of accessories to compensate. S cross is a good breed for the present price offer and you get a feel of a big sedan while sitting inside.

Areas of improvement Headlamps, Tyres, boot space and Nexa service. The Nexa staff are inexperienced lot and one sees total commotion in the showroom and though they try to be pleasant, they seem to lack the expert salesmanship that one normally encounters in such places.

Ample Space for 5 adults, Pleasant ambiance inside the car, Good suspension, Proven Diesel 1.3 EnginBoot space, Tyre, Head lights, price (Maruti has reduced prices now and early buyers are doomed

Exterior May not be the perfect looking beauty you would like to own,but this car will over a period of time start becoming your favourite. The alloys if replaced with good ones does change the appearance. Otherwise loaded with projector lamps etc which really makes heads turns as only premium cars come with white lights and in india we dont have many of these.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Brilliant package, great space and packed with touch screen infotainment screen, steering controls,etc etc. You dont feel fatigue when you have so many comforts and will love to take car on long highway drives.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Having driven 40,000kms in 1.7 years I get a very consistent mileage of around 17+ in the city and around 20 in the highway at speeds over 100.Smooth and power packed engine, a tad slow in pickup till the car crosses 1500rpm, beyond that is a beast ready to take on the german cars.

Ride Quality & Handling Overall a very comfortable car to drive in the city or out of town aswell.

Final Words If you are not really bothered about exemplary looks in a car,then simply go a S cross.You wont repent with your choice at all.

Areas of improvement Has to be the looks department only!

The build quality,Interiors and Premium featuresThe exterior styling to some extent

Buying experience was not good because we bought it when first launch at Nexa and there were less availability of showrooms and cars. Riding experience is awesome, good pick up good milage with this larger car size, Look is also good could be better. Pros: larger space good milage pickup Cons: nothing.

Very powerful car, very high pickup, very accurate braking, very comfortable suspension, if outside temperature is high ac at the rear seat is less effective, headlights in base model is to be bit more powerful,its a performance car ,it shows it's power on highway, it overtakes very smoothly, inside engine's sound does not come, cabin use to be very calm even during high speed,

A good car. Silent cabin with michellin tyres. Top speed of 200km. Very peppy to drive. Safe and well built compared to all maruti cars. Good audio system and speakers. Mileage is good in city with 18kmpl in Bengaluru. Overall a best product from maruti. People should consider this over brezza and creta

Value for money. Premium space, features, handling and overall feel. Best in the segment. Very happy. This crossover exceeds all its competitors within the segment, especially the space. Cabin sound of the dds engine too is next to nil which is not the case with its counterparts. A car whose pleasantness grows the more one uses it.

Hi,

Now I am using Mariti WagonR, I have searched so many cars in inter net at last I have purchased 1.6 s cross Alpha Silver Colour. at Jayabheri Nexa, Madhapur, Hyderabad.

It contains dual air bags, rear view camera, cruise control, FM, audio control for passenger and driver alloy wheels, driver seat manual adjustment, steering adjustment, arm rest, key less entry, back sensors, back view mirror also very good because it does not reflects light on my eyes. So this is very good option. Any body touches the car it gives alaram

This is very good high way car for next 5 to 10 years. Interio also good, Fuel economy is good it is giving in high way is 19km/ltr. I hope that is will be given 20 to 22 km / ltr after 3rd servicing. Driving also comportable.

Seating style should be changed. I am feeling back pain while long drive. Any way I am happy with this car, because no need new car up to next 10 years. Service will be donw at any Maruti Servicing Centres. If you have any doubt please go for road test.

Thank you.
