Cons

  • The use of hard plastic inside the cabin takes away the premium feel
  • The roof liner of the panoramic roof feels so flimsy
  • The three-cylinder hybrid engine makes a lot of noise when in petrol mode
  • It misses on features like electric seat adjustment, rain sensing wiper, ADAS, and more
  • The hybrid powertrain is available in two top-of-the-line variants which are a bit pricey
  • Not as engaging as the KIA Seltos, Hyundai Creta, and Skoda Kushaq in terms of driving
  • The engine is tuned to give mileage which feels lethargic sometimes
  • AWD is available in a single variant with manual transmission only and with a non-hybrid engine only
  • No turbo-petrol or diesel engine on offer
  • The diesel automatic lacks excitement behind the wheel
  • Top variant misses premium features like an electric co-driver seat, powered tailgate, and rear seat ventilation

      This is a very beautiful and trusted car that delivers excellent mileage—over 30 km/kg on CNG on highways and more than 20 km/l on petrol. The performance is reliable, and the driving experience is smooth. In addition, the service experience at Maruti service centers is very good, making ownership easy and stress-free. Overall, it is a dependable and value-for-money car.

      Everything about this car is good. The mileage is slightly low, but the performance and interior are excellent. Even the base model comes well-equipped with essential features. I have driven more than 45,000 km in a year, and maintenance costs remain low.
