Trending Questions on Maruti Suzuki Cars - Answered by Autocar Experts
Team, please help. We have shortlisted the Mahindra 3XO AT and the Brezza AT, with a budget of โน12-15 lakh. The car will be used mostly for city driving. We need a spacious and reliable car for a family of 4-5 members. Driving will be calm (no rash driving), and the car will primarily be driven by a lady. Please suggest between these two.
Hello, I am an NRI. We spend 3-4 months in India. I have been using short-term car subscriptions during our stay, and for the last two years, we have rented a Brezza. Now, I am considering buying a recent-model used car. We will use it during our stay for long trips, and at other times, my family will use and maintain it. Can you recommend a reliable model? My budget is โน10-12 lakh. Thank you.
I am planning to buy a new car for my daily commute and occasional long drives with my family. My daily driving requirement is around 70 km, and my budget is between โน10-15 lakhs. I am confused about whether to choose a petrol, CNG, hybrid, or electric vehicle. Kindly guide me.
Since you're running over 2000 kms a month, you can consider buying a CNG car. We would have recommended a hybrid as well, but the most affordable hybrid, the Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder S, is around Rs 1.5 lakh over your maximum budget of Rs 15 lakh.
In CNG, we would recommend the Maruti Suzuki Victoris, either in the LXi or the VXi variant, depending on the features you are looking for. The Victoris is a well-engineered car, and the solution Maruti Suzuki has come up with for the CNG tank position under the boot floor makes the Victoris CNG very versatile. In terms of boot space, the compromise is minimal, which is important since you go on a long drive once a month with your family.
I own a 2017 Hyundai Xcent SX(O) diesel that has been driven around 1.07 lakh km. Now I am thinking of changing it. The options in my mind are the Kia Sonet HTK+(O) petrol or the Honda Amaze ZX (MT), but from my research, both feel underpowered due to their naturally aspirated engines. Are there any better petrol options around a โน10 lakh budget? I donโt want to continue with diesel because they are now overpriced and have many emissions concerns. Please suggest.
Yes, you are right. The Kia Sonetโs and Honda Amazeโs 1.2 litre naturally aspirated petrol engines, although fine for city use, will feel a bit down on power for highway duties. Especially compared to your Hyundai Xcent diesel, you own currently. It has a lot more torque; these cars will feel slower in comparison and wonโt really feel like an upgrade.
In your Rs 10 lakh budget, you can look at either the Mahindra XUV 3XO REVX M or the Skoda Kylaq Classic Plus. Both these cars are powered by turbo petrol engines, which give them strong performance, and both are genuinely enjoyable to drive. The Mahindra scores big on cabin space, making it one of the most comfortable cars in the segment for five adults. While the Skoda Kodiaq offers a much larger boot, which adds to its practicality.
If you are looking for better efficiency and a lighter clutch for a more effortless driving experience, you could also consider the Maruti Suzuki Brezza LXi. However, in Marutiโs case, we would recommend waiting as an update is due soon.
I am confused about my car purchase. I was initially fixed on the Grand Vitara due to its mileage and service network, but recent additions to the market like the Seltos and Duster have made me reconsider. Mileage is my main priority, but better features would be a bonus. I mainly travel 300-400 km per month. My current Tata Altroz delivers low mileage.
Which car would be more suitable for city use and occasional highway driving: the Swift or the Ignis? My budget is around Rs 8 lakh, which can be stretched. Or should I look at lower variants of the Sonet or 3XO?
I am upgrading my car and am confused between the Victoris VXi CNG and the Kia Seltos petrol. The Victoris offers better fuel efficiency, while the Seltos has a better interior. My average monthly running is 2,500 km, and my budget is Rs 15 lakh.
Is the Maruti Suzuki Wagon R a good car to buy, or would another equivalent vehicle be a better choice?
The Maruti Suzuki Wagon R is a good option to consider in the hatchback space. It is spacious, practical, and easy to drive. The 1.2-litre engine is peppy, and the AMT gearbox is smooth. It is one of the most reliable workhorses and has been running on Indian roads for years without much trouble.
It gives excellent fuel efficiency, too. Maruti has now added 6 airbags to all variants of Wagon R, adding to its safety equipment. So if you want a reliable, fuel-efficient car, the Wagon R is a good choice.
My key requirements are: a 5-seater petrol car, good boot space, 4m+ length, classy interiors, and a budget under โน25 lakh. Which SUV would be best for me among the Seltos, Sierra, Victoris, or Duster?
I am planning to buy a new car after selling my existing Celerio ZXi and am confused between the Hyundai i20 NA manual and the Maruti Suzuki Fronx 1.2 manual. My usage is around 80% city and 20% highway, and it also includes hilly terrain, steep climbs, and rough rural roads. While I am inclined toward the i20, my main concern is fuel efficiency. What is its real-world mileage, especially on hilly and rough roads? My budget is โน10 lakh. Please guide me accordingly.
Given your requirements, the Maruti Suzuki Fronx would be a better choice, as it offers higher fuel efficiency. The 1.2-litre petrol engine is efficient and also has enough performance for the hills. What is also better on the Fronx is the ride quality, which is an advantage over rough terrain.
The Delta+ version also gets a decent set of features, including LED headlamps, keyless entry, automatic climate control, and more. Our pick between the two would be the Maruti Fronx.
