Its been a month since I got my Swft VXi(ABS) - Silky Silver. I have driven the car on very few occasions as I was on and off the home town for some personal reasons.
Here are the few things which I would like to share for the fellow buyers.
- *Car provides you with excellent confidence when you drive esp @ >90kmph.*
2**. Very good seating position as I drove continuously from Bangalore to Shimoga non stop in 41/2 hrs.*
- *Decent suspension not so very great but still manageable.*
4**. Did not like the incabin noise as I felt it would have been little better than what it is.*
*Hghway FE I got was 16.5kmpl(Shell) and on my way back 17(Reliance).*
*City around 11.5kmpl with 100%A/C on not very accurate as my car was driven mostly on highways so far.*
7.L**ack of rear viper and defogger even in vxi-abs model is big problem when it starts pouring. You end up driving assuming there is no one tailgating. *
8.**Great pickup and superb handling with good breaks.*
A**BS kicked in when it mattered the most(rain).*
Gear change in the city is too frequent as it did not live upto my expectations may be I will get used to it.
*My door opening handle is already not** working poor maruti build I have to get it repaired.
Went is for first service It is fine see no issues with their service and they were very courteous.
1**3. A/C is superb in the car.*
- *Parking is an issue as the view is not very good**. Again I need to get used to it.
*My Recommendation for new car buyers.*
If you like driving the car yourself then buy the Swift as it gives overall good feel for a driver in that segment along with good FE.
