    I purchased Ignis Zeta AMT. I was owning Ritz VXI before. Naturally my mind was comparing every aspect of Ignis with Ritz.

    I selected Ignis for 2 reasons.

    1. AMT.

    2. Looking for a tall boy design like Ritz. Even though it is not as tall as Ritz I decided to go for it. I wanted to buy the Delta version but purchased the Zeta version. Still not personally convinced with the difference in price between. Delta and Zeta for the features offered. I took delivery and started my 500 KM journey It was a head turner. Many on the high way wanted to find which model the car is, and  starring. We were happy.

    It was bumpy on high way. Even at small road unevenness, I could feel the vibration inside. I was recalling the excellent suspension my Ritz had. The quality of ride could not match Ritz. After 100 kms I checked the tyre pressure  and to my surprise it was 44 psi. I have no idea why dealer has set sucha high pressure. I reduced the pressure to 34 psi after that the smoothness has improved but still could not match to Ritz. I used to drive ritz at 100 to 110 KM/h. But I could not drive Ignis more than 80 KM/h as I was feeling the body is not as solid as Ritz. I was not feeling safe to drive more than 80 km/h.

    Steering is very light and easy to turn. Good point. But in the U turn, while turn it back, normally I leave the steering, my Ritz steering would come back to original centre position on its own, which was very comfortable. But in Ignis I had to turn the steering all the way back. Even though it is a striking difference, I hope I will get use to it soon.

    The info system shows Distance to empty, Average fuel cnsumption etc. Need to fill the tank 2 or 3 times to check the accuracy of this data. Gear shift was very smooth. Enjoyed the clutch free driving. Put the gear in manual mode. At 5 th gear applied brake the ear automatically shifted down to 2 nd gear. Gear down shifting to lower gear in manual mode is really a convenient feature.

    Shown to my friends. They were thinking the price could be between 4 to 5 lakhs. When I said the onroad price as 7.5 lakhs, they put a step back. Started asking me why I purchased this car, and said I could have gone for other brands/models. I do felt the price is high, but still convinced with my decision.

    The illumination control for the Instrument cluster is a convenient feature, I liked it. The interior has dual colour and the second colour is white. I am worrying how to maintain the white coloured parts without getting dirty. Keyless entry is a convenient feature, but I hope it wont drain the battery. Further review after completing first service.

    S not as tall as Ritz I decided to go for it. I wanted to buy the Delta version but purchased the Zes not as tall as Ritz I deci
