Pros & Cons

Wagon R Pros & Cons	Exter Pros & Cons	Punch EV Pros & Cons
Pros	Comes with steering-mounted controls for more comfort. The room inside the cabin is still first class. The fit-finish quality of the cabin is decent. The seats offer great comfort. Has excellent fuel efficiency in CNG mode. The AMT version is slick to operate and provides ease of driving in city traffic.	It comes as a feature-loaded offering in its segment Offers largest boot space in the segment with 391 litres capacity The suspension is well-tuned to make it a perfect city car The AMTs are well tuned and offer a good driving experience The 1.2-litre, 4-cylinder NA petrol engine offers a good level of refinement Hyundai Exter’s interior is roomy as compared to its rivals A good number of safety features 6 airbags, ISOFIX child seat mount, ABS with EBD, ESC, TPMS, SOS Call and more The top-spec variant comes with a dual-camera dash cam Hyundai’s wide sales and service network is a boon for customers	-
Cons	The boot space is negligible in the CNG variant. Non-adjustable headrests can hamper the comfort of the cabin. The plastic quality could have been improved. AMT variants are a bit on the expensive side.	The sharp lines and curves might not look pleasing to everyone It does not offer an option of either a turbo petrol or a diesel engine The rear row offers good legroom but the under-thigh support is not sufficient The 1.2-litre NA petrol engine is not much fun to drive on highways The cabin only offers an option of a black interior It misses on some features such as auto-dimming IRVM, 6-speaker music system, and split rear seat among others	-

  All Maruti vehicles are really good. I have been using them for the last 16 years from Alto 1000cc to WagonR. Currently, I am thinking of changing to a new SUV these days, Maruti cars are my first choice.
