Are new drivers being set up for failure when they learn to drive in an Alto setting, only to switch to bigger cars?
For many new drivers in India, their journey begins with a Maruti Alto, it’s simple, small, and forgiving. But this has fueled a debate as to whether learning on an Alto is sufficient to teach someone how to drive bigger, more powerful cars. But some say the Alto's light controls, good visibility and easy maneuverability make it too easy, not teaching the important skills needed in bigger cars. Some worry that drivers will get into bad habits or overconfidence. But on the other hand, supporters say the Alto's simplicity means that new drivers can concentrate on the basics without being confused by too much. The argument also spills over to whether or not beginning with a small car makes it harder to switch over to bigger vehicles or if it gives you a good base for any kind of car. It also discusses the bigger question of driver education in India and whether teaching a few simple skills in a simple car is more important than learning to drive a variety of cars during the process.
Learning in an Alto is great. It is not intimidating and teaches you the basics. Later, you can always adapt to bigger cars.
