Hi, I have been planning to purchase a car of smaller hatchbacks such as Ignis recently but confused with so many brands and models with the same price range. I looked for various reviews on different cars and compared. But I was really attracted to Maruti Ignis for its design, SUV like stance and overall design and let alone whatever may be the reviews of buyers. Recently, a colleague of mine bought the piece and I was lucky & excited to have got to take a drive before going for it by myself. In doing so, I find it little not so smooth in shifting reverse gear and overall shifting from 1 gear to the other. So, I would say in design, features & looks wise it is unique and good looking but performance wise for me its only 60 on 100. Therefore, I would only say for potential buyers to do a real self-test drive thoroughly first and not simply look for the reviews alone. I have opted for i20 myself. So good luck!
