Does the Maruti Tour S STD make the trade off in features and comfort for fuel efficiency worth it?
Fuel efficiency has always been the selling point for the Maruti Tour S STD, which makes it popular with both fleet operators and budget conscious private buyers. But it is at the expense of features and comfort that the standard Dzire model boasts. The car doesn’t have some of the amenities that many consider standard on modern vehicles, including power windows, a music system and some safety features. The trade off behind this debate is about priorities in car ownership and usage. But some say the fuel savings and low maintenance costs make up for the lack of features, especially for high mileage users. Many others argue that the concessions to comfort and features are too big a price to pay at the potential cost of the driving and ownership experience. It's also a discussion of balance between practicality and comfort while in budget car segments.
Absolutely! Fuel efficiency rules in today's economy. I prefer to save money on gas than fancy gadgets.
No way. If you are spending hours in the car each day, comfort matters. While the back pain isn't worth the savings.
That’s up to you. The fuel efficiency is a big plus if it’s for a second car or just for utilitarian purposes.
I believe Maruti's gone too far. They’re missing a middle ground between efficiency and basic comfort.
Being a long distance driver, I like the fuel efficiency. I wish they would at least have better seats and an audio system that works.
Companies with large fleets will find the Tour S STD a perfect fit. If it was for personal use I'd probably go for something with more features.
It’s not just the features, it’s the long term costs. These cost less to run on fuel and in maintenance so they can save quite a bit of money over time.
