Good Car But Not Great.

Good Car But Not Great.

Maruti Swift is the best car for the middle class as it is immensely comfortable with the affordable price. I bought the car in June 2011 and it is working superbly till now. I didn't spend over it even a paisa after buying. Seats are adjustable and you don't get tired even if you are going on a long journey. Steering the car is very smooth and enjoyable. You can also set your steer according to your comfort. Seats are in very well shape, totally comfortable. I don't remember the exact radius of tires but these can be turned very smoothly. This car doesn't get bouncy on bumpy roads.It is a different matter if you are running it speedily on such roads otherwise no any problem. The only snag is its stereo which I bought of 22000. It was provided by the company but not for free.Stereo is comparatively of inferior quality. I suggest you not to take the stereo from the company, buy it from outside as per your choice. There are power windows on all doors and the car notifies if the driver doesn't wear seat belt which reminds you to wear it as it can save you from being fined. Security wise it gets very fewer marks because its windows get closed automatically in case of burning. I always keep a tool with me for this situation but when it is still it starts to produce sound vociferously if anybody meddles with its handles. It has happened to me when I was in office and some mischievous children were touching the handles wrongly. As I mentioned earlier about stereo, not only stereo but also its speakers are of bad quality. Since I bought it, only two front speakers work. You should keep in mind while buying it. I am not sure that it only happened with me or happens with everybody. The AC is of good quality but the filter is not available. Very stylish and it can beat it's any counterpart cars vis a vis design. This is a fully spatial car and at most 5 or 6 persons can sit if you are sitting crouched. Side mirrors are adjustable and are designed very neatly. In some other cars, these are very small and not adjustable but Swift gets high marks in this case also.Its body is made of plastic that is there is no chance to be safe in an accident. But everything in comparison with its breaks as they are very reliable. The car gets fixated where you want to stop it. The capacity of boot space is 243 litre which I think good if your family is not so big. Our family is of 4 members so it is enough for us. The engine is very strong but I have to turn off my AC while overtaking as its speed becomes slow. No any problem in sloppy areas. It can climb as well get down easily.Ground clearance is 170 mm which is almost good. My car never touched the ground. I run it on bumpy roads also. Its seats have bench folding and made of fabric. There is also a digital watch so time is always in front of your eyes. It has closed as well as open glove box where you can keep your important documents. It also has a cup holder in front. For studying at night, you can use the reading lamp. Height wise it is good. It also has fog light which is very helpful while driving in foggy days but not in the rear. It also has a charging point of 12 volts. So, your mobile can be charged. Its spare parts are very not so expensive, available everywhere and can be bought easily. It has wipers but only in front not in the rear. So, sometimes it creates a problem in rainy season. There are also headrests attached with seats which are very comfortable and can also be adjusted. So, this is my opinion about Maruti Swift. If your budget is between 5 to 7 lakhs then this car is great but In my opinion, Chevrolet Sail Hatchback is better than Swift in this price range. I am saying this because currently, I have Sail Hatchback. Maruti Suzuki is Compared with Maruti Ritz, Grand i10, Chevrolet Sail Hatchback. In my opinion, Sail Hatchback is 1st, Swift 2nd, Grand i10 3rd & Maruti Ritz is 4th. But this is according to me. Different peoples have different opinions. So, I am going to say that In Overall  => Safety -> 7/10  Comfort -> 10/10  Look -> 9/10  So, Total -> 26/30.  Hence,I have encompassed every part of this car. It is up to you now. So, If you want to buy a Maruti Suzuki car in 5 - 7 lacs price range then Swift is best for you. And If you want to take the advice that which company & which car is better for your Budget then I would refer for Chevrolet & its Sail Hatchback. So, that is my opinion about the car. I think that you will understand which Car is better for you after reading my opinion & thanks for reading my opinion.
