The Alto after its first service is driving quite well. It took a little bit of time to adjust to the wheel, gear and clutch, power delivery, view around from the drivers seat, if you were driving any bigger car before. In the city, when the traffic is thankfully mild, you can comfortably drive shifting between Gears 2&3, with a light pedal. It is not a status symbol, not a stallion either, not an intercity car. But it does duty perfectly well as a city commuter. I do not calculate mileage, but it is surely frugal with fuel. The pick up and ride are ideal for city errands. The tiny alto could have stolen our hearts totally, only if it had a muscular shell and better seats.
