      A very good vehicle for middle-class families, offering excellent mileage and low maintenance. Service charges are affordable, and it provides comfortable seating. The air conditioner works perfectly, and the headlamps are also very effective.

      This is a super car, the look is amazing, the seating is comfortable, and the engine is excellent. Mileage is great—around 27 km/l for petrol. Maruti is really good; this is my first choice for a new car.
