Maruti Alto K10 VXi

I would like to share few things of this ALTO K10 (new Auto Gear Shift vehicle). I have experienced very less mileage - 12+ in city & 15+ on highways, I have concerted Maruti Suzuki technical team, they have said gradually, it will increase after 5000kms run, is it fine? any one experienced same with new cars ?

Best Features: Auto gear and power streering

Pros: Chilled A/C

Cons: Low space

The built-in Audio system provided in ALTO K-10 VXi is not conivient for operations as it does not have Remote facility. Why not the manufacturer supply a built-in Audio system which has a remote.

Best Features: Over all the vehicle is good for a small family.

Pros: I have purchased an Alto K-10 VXi car two days back. The car is OK in mant aspects but for the Audio system

Cons: The built-in Audio system provided in ALTO K-10 VXi.

Maruti Alto K10 is a good deal if you are looking for fuel efficient powerful hatchback. Its new engine make it far more better than Alto 800. It takes just 13.5 seconds to cover 0-100 km distance. The steering wheel is so smooth and the pickup of the car is great. The performance on highways is good but more speed than 80 kmph cause engine sounds as well as vibrations. So, this is not the car for over speed lovers. From the mileage point of few, its a best buy. It returns a good mileage of 17 kmpl on city roads and 21 kmpl on highways. On the bad side, it is bit uncomfortable on the potholes and bumps. I have doubts on its build quality and the space management. As I am 5'10", I have adjusted the driving seat by pushing it back. But it is okay in the case when I am along in the car. For my whole family, its a big task to get fit into the cabin.

Best Features: Mileage

Pros: Mileage, Look, Ease of Driving

Cons: Space, Vibrations

With a low budget in mind, I bought this car and I am certainly satisfied with its performance. It is well priced and it has a number of features too, among which the automatic transmission is the best one of all. The engine is very responsive and delivers good mileage. It has a steering wheel that supports a minimum turning radius of 4.6 meters which reduces the efforts of driver and makes handling easier even in heavy traffic conditions. The interior is simply amazing and I can drive over rough patches without feeling any bump. The stylish looks and small changes in the car have made this vehicle more attractive as compared to its own sibling Alto 800. Its suspension system is also good and provide good ground clearance. The only drawback which I found is its small boot space which should be improved by the company.

Best Features: Easy to handle

Pros: Looks, affordable, powerful engine, easy to handle, automatic transmission

Cons: Small boot space
