MARUTI SUZUKI CELERIO REVIEW

Maruti Suzuki is creating a great buzz among people with it`s new hatchback Celerio. It was launched in February, 2014. It was designed in japan keeping in mind the need of global audience. It is launched to give a tough competition to its competitors such as Hyundai i10, Honda Brio, Ford Figo, Chevrolet Beat. It is India`s first car with auto gear shift. Maruti has taken a good step by introducing this technology earlier than Tata as the Tata is going to introduce the same technology in the upcoming Tata zest.
                             In terms of it`s exteriors, car is very stylish. The front of the car reminds me of Toyota Liva and the rear of the car reminds me of Alto 800. The car has sharp headlights as well as chrome strip to accesorize the whole look. The fog lamps add a pleasing look to the car. Overall styling is clean and neutral. The beige and black combination gives a good feel to the car. The interiors are  very pleasing. Overall boot space is much better than it`s ancestor A-Star. The steering is very accurate. The car absorbs sharpest of bumps easily.
                                                      Let`s talk about the performance of the car. Manual transmission of the Celerio doesn`t feel good to drive. Manual transmission doesn`t feel as good as the automatic transmission. It seems as if the car was designed by the company keeping in mind only the automatic transmission. Manual transmission was added later on. The Celerio delivers power from 1 litre 3 cylinder k-series engine. Manual transmission doesn`t deliver much power as the AMT model. Celerio returns 18kmpl in city and 20kmpl on highway. If it is present in diesel it will surely hit the sales.The company is ready to create wonders with this car. In terms of pricing, car is very cheap. The company claims that it`s maintenance cost is also very low. It seems that the company has learned from it`s` previous mistakes. Thus, maruti has produced a car that`s good in your pocket and value for money.

HYUNDAI GRAND I10 REVIEW

Hyundai is a south korean company which has taken the 2nd position in terms of it`s sales in the indian market. After a huge success of  it`s hatchbacks like i10 and i20,  Hyundai is ready with a hatchback that fits right between i10 and i20. Only a small amount of price differ Grand i10 from i10. Now let`s talk about the review of Grand i10.
                 Hyundai has made the changes in Grand i10 in a more conservative way rather than making a change which may entirely differ Grand i10 from i10. Hyundai has played it safe in terms of styling. Car looks small from front but is actually spacious from inside. Headlamps and fog lamps look very pleasing. 
Let`s talk about the interiors of the car. This is the segment where Hyundai`s cars stand above all it`s competitors. The interiors of Grand i10 come with dual tone colours. The amount of space in the car is amazing. Rear A.C. vent is a great feature by Hyundai which no other company offers in this segment. The car is equipped with ABS, dual airbags, keyless entry, reverse parking sensors, electrically foldable mirrors, glove box cooling and 1gb space on mp3 player for saving your favourite songs. 
                                                     Let`s talk about the performance of the car. The Grand i10 comes with the 1.2 litre kappa 2 motor as old i10. The Grand i10 produces 82 bhp power. The power is somewhat less than it`s other competitors. But the result is quite opposite. Grand i10 drive is simply awesome. Grand i10 delivers excellent power and initial response is very good. The Grand i10 goes from 0-100kph in 13.40 seconds. Grand i10 returns 12.7 kpl in city and 17.4 kpl on highway. The Grand i10 steering feels light which makes for a stress free city drive. The negative point about this car is it`s soft suspension. The car does not satisfies the drive on highways. On highway, you would feel as if you are forcing the car to perform better. With the grand i10, Hyundai has filled the gap between i10 and i20. Hyundai has also improved the ride quality over i10. If you were thinking to buy i10, then you should drop the idea. Because in the same price range you can get a far better version of i10 called Grand i10. And the customers who dream of buying i20 but are reluctant because of it`s price, may buy Grand i10 because it fulfils some of the features of i20. Thus this is the car which you should buy in the hatchback segment for a good city drive if you are low at budget.

MARUTI SUZUKI SWIFT REVIEW

Maruti Suzuki`s Swift bold and stylish design forms a look like no other. The Maruti Swift range starts from 4.42 to 6.70 lacs. This price range might alter the minds of some Swift lovers. But after you read it`s full review the price would not matter for you .
                         When it was launched earlier in 2005, it gave the other car companies a tough competition. New swift is appealing in it`s looks and manages to perform better and better. It is a great choice of  all types of onlookers .The Maruti company has played a safe side with it`s new Swift. A large number of people would not be able to differentiate between old Swift and new Swift as they have made the changes keeping in mind the old look of Swift. The length of the car is however increased with large headlamps stretched to give it a wide look. When i stepped inside the Swift i was blown away by it`s interiors. All looks well managed with use of quality plastic. The textured plastic adds a nice touch. The car is bigger in terms of space in comparison to it`s old version. But not as big as a customer would expect from a big premium hatchback. The rear window is tinier.
                                                                                                                     The new Swift has increased the level of a hatchback in terms of performance. It delivers a pumping performance with enhanced efficiency. Some users complain of it`s` poor brakes. But it might be a problem for only some customers. The Swift is powered by 1.2 litre k-series engine. The Swift ride feels posed and refined.
In terms of fuel efficiency, the Swift manages 12.6 kpl in city and 17 kpl on highway(for petrol version). The Swift offers a very quiet cabin giving you a feel of a luxury car at high speeds. Overall Swift is a made for price car.
