    Hey Guys,

    I am not an Car Expert. But yeah after a driving of 7500 kms I am writing my expreince with my own Alto 800 LXI CNG car.

    To start with, for a new car driver and to ride in a City this car is good. However,

    1) Don't leave the car in a summar as the car will heat up like a furnace.

    2) Company did not provided left side rear view mirror Even after purchasing the Top most model in CNG.

    3) Fuel economy on CNG (Without AC) is around 34 km/kg when you drive solo.

    4) When you switch on the AC the car pick up drops drastically and even the co-rider will feel this sudden drop in the power.

    5) The car interior quality is not so good. Once you switch on the AC and if you switch off the AC after some time than the car will full of odor.

    6) You need to do the balancing after every 5000 kms.

    7) Door quality is also not so good. Doors are vibrating when you drive your car at 100 or 110.

    8) After driving the 7500 kms the front and rear glass are making noise. Even after complaining to maruti showroom they replied that this much noise is normal. But this is abnormal for any car.

    9) You need to do recertification of your CNG cylinder every 3 years (As per Indian Govt. Norms).

    10) As you know to get fuel economy you put the CNG cylinder. To hide that bottole the maruti is not having the rear parcel tray. So you can not hide the cylinder. Which will look cheap.

    11) If your office / work place parking is not having the shade than please don't buy a metallic color. As the color gets dull within just 4 to 5 months. Buy white or silver color and you will feel your car age as very old even if your car is new.

    That's it from my side as of know.

    Once I will get more experience than will keep you posted.
