Trending Questions on Maruti Suzuki Cars - Answered by Autocar Experts
My budget is under Rs 12 lakh, and I want a petrol manual car. I currently drive a 17-year-old Maruti Dzire diesel and am looking to replace it with a compact SUV. My priorities are good highway performance, safety, decent fuel efficiency and a spacious cabin. I will sometimes drive the car myself, but it will mostly be chauffeur-driven. I have shortlisted the Mahindra XUV 3XO MPFi, but some people have advised me against buying it, leaving me unsure about its reliability. Should I go ahead with it or consider other options? At this price, I can also get the Hyundai Venue HX5+ and Maruti Victoris LXi. What would you suggest?
Mahindra XUV 3XOMaruti Suzuki VictorisHyundai VenueKia SyrosHey folks! I'm planning to buy my first car, and my maximum budget is Rs. 11 lakh (on-road price). After exploring a few options, I've shortlisted the Hyundai Venue 1.0L Turbo Manual and the Maruti Suzuki Brezza 1.0L Turbo Manual. However, I'm a bit confused about which one to choose. My driving will be split roughly 50% in the city and 50% on highways. I've already driven the Brezza 1.0L Turbo, and I noticed that it doesn't stall even when the RPM drops below 1,000. I'm not sure how the Venue performs in similar conditions. I'd love to hear from car enthusiasts and owners who have experience with either of these cars. Which one would you recommend considering drivability, engine performance, city traffic, highway comfort, and overall ownership experience? Any suggestions or real-world experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Maruti Suzuki BrezzaHyundai VenueHi! My annual running is around 9,000km in the city and 3,000km on highways. Should I buy the petrol Maruti Suzuki Dzire ZXi or the Brezza VXi with the 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine and manual transmission? The Brezza felt a bit too wide and large for city use, and making U-turns is likely to be more difficult than in the Dzire. I also found the Brezza's softer seats potentially tiring over a 500km highway drive. I'm concerned that the turbo-petrol engine will be more complicated to maintain because of GPF cleaning requirements and the need for RON 95 fuel. Carbon build-up could also be an issue, given that only 30% of my annual running is on highways. On hills, I wonder if the turbo engine will leave me wanting more. By contrast, the Dzire felt more nimble and easy to manoeuvre. Its 15-inch tyres should also be fine for highway use. At cruising speeds below 100kph with two or three people on board, wouldn't it be nearly as good as the Brezza? The popular Z12E engine should also get an upgrade if E27 becomes the baseline fuel. However, would the heavier Brezza be safer in a crash? I plan to sell the car after four or five years, by which time the EV market should have stabilised. Wouldn't the petrol Dzire also have better resale value than the Brezza? Given my usage, what are the reasons I should seriously consider the Brezza?
Maruti Suzuki DzireMaruti Suzuki BrezzaWe are planning to buy a Hyundai Exter HX8, but we are confused about whether we should buy a petrol automatic or a CNG manual, as our daily running is about 38 to 42 km. And my wife also wants to drive, but she is not confident with a manual car. Also, for the daily commute, we mostly use our scooty, and we mostly use our car in the rainy season and on special occasions.
