*We bought second Estilo (new version) again because of omnipresent after sale service of Maruti. As We have both models in home, so its become possible to analyse both models meticulously. So here is the analysis: -
Stylish: - In front, the new changes are really welcome. This enables Estilo to stand with Swift and other stylish cars of different maker.
Gear Shift: - New wire technology has made the shift smoother than before.
Interior: - Here we may disappoint as there is no change.
Engine: - As we all know with K series, with lower CC than previous engine doesn’t make so much difference in pick up or power due to more bhp.
Tyres: - New estilo is available with tube less tyres.
*Substitute: - It’s best substitute is none of any other car, its is WAGONR. So please don’t so confuse between these two models. You can opt Estilo in compare of wagonr as its very stylish as always and rock in Dusky brown color.
* USP: - Its USP is the driver seat. Driving seat is provided with good height, which make you to feel the royale while driving. Your head clearance is really expanded.
Long journey: - As we tested it on two routes, One is Jaipur-Agra – Gwalior – Jaipur and Jaipur – Udaipur - Jaipur (with full time AC on). This car never disappointed and more reliable on driving long journey. The overall mileage was 16.5. Kmpl. In city with driving speed limited up to 40 to 50 Km, you may easily get 15 Kmpl average.
Estilo vs Other cars: - This vxi model of this car beats all other car ranges between 3.75 lac to 5 Lac. The obvious reason is that in vxi model, you may get fully loaded car with all the features, while in same cost i10 doesn’t provide all the features. We bought at 4.20 Lac and we get following features : - All power window, Antitheft car alarming, I – cat, Fog lamp (front and rear), Extra wiper in rear, JVC music(I suggest you to use Sony system as in our old model we are using Sony and it is better than JVC) system with woofer speaker of sony, AC with heater, Power steering , Steering cover, Met, Fog remover (front and rear), Head lamp adjustment, Side mirror adjustment, etc.
So at this cost this car is value to money.
*Most welcome changes: - last but not least, we welcome new changes by providing desk board in back of the rear seat extra space for luggage.
Overall, new Estilo is best car to value your money. But we never recommend to driver of height lower than 5.2 ft. as the driver seat has abnormal height in compare of 800, i10, Santro and a-star. For more detail, you may contact me.
