REVIEW : Its a stable car, & its tall seating position gives a good control over it as well good view of the road. There is lot of space for your accessories like cups, goggles and other stuff. Engine gives very good response. Overall it is very good car. But one thing I must say, now this is the right time to change the body shell before it too late.

REVIEW : I had purchased the New look WagonR VXI, in Jan 2007. I am extremely satisfied with the performance of the car. Its a perfect elegant and executive car for Mumbai's city driving conditions. Good leg room for all four passengers and sufficient boot space as well. Response to acceleration is good. Mileage in the city driving conditions is approx 13 kms with AC. Clocked an average of 17 kms during a long drive from Mumbai to Nashik with family. Maruti after sales service is excellent. Value for money car for a young family of four.

REVIEW : I own a maruti wagonR jan 2007 model. its overall a nice car to have and the full return for the money paid. nice steering, nice seating, nice driving position, nice cabin space, nice styling and nice car to be modified. its like a heaven to sit in it and to fly it just pressing the pedal and switching it to the gears. no problem wheather you are in city or highway. i had driven it to top 140 in 5th and least 20 in 4th gear and i felt no problem no hazel. maruti has really done good for its interiors but ya heaslighrs looks a bit odd but once u are habitual for it, its the most pretty car for you. i really love my black beauty.

REVIEW : I plan to purchase to a WagonR car which i always feel to have it because it is comfortable and seating space is comfortable but needs to improve little outer looks from the back. Rest every thing is O.K

REVIEW : I have recently purchased a Wagon R Lxi. However I have problems with the gears usually the 2nd gear. What I wish to know is whether this problem will continue or gets better with use. Maybe I will get used to it.
Also when i shift from 3rd to 4th gear I feel a percetible loss of power.
Still overall I feel I have made the right choice.

REVIEW : I bought a WagonR Duo last month... Still getting used to my first car... Though its too early, my first experience with the car was good... Good seating comfort and leg space for driving comfort... Power steering is awesome... But the only complaint I have is with the gears...Switching from second gear has been a problem and not to forget the reverse gear... If Maruti can work on these things and rectify the problems, I feel it would be a pleasure to own a WagonR.

REVIEW : I wanted to purchase this car but I am sure I will not go for it even if everything is fine. Has anybody seen its look? It does not look like car at all, just like a Maruti Omni...And its front bonnet looks like "Pitara", no good car lover love this shape at all...I hate bloody this shape and also people inside it...I have also checked hidden psychology of people, all are hating this shape even owner....So even if you have budget, please do not go for this Pitara circus car.....

REVIEW : Over all a good value for money, As most others in this site have experienced, The gear shifting, particularly the reverse is cumbersome. After reading so many reviews I realised that it's a generic problem and not specific to my vehicle,Power Steering is quite responsive and smooth, you feel the lack of power on fourth and fifth gear.

REVIEW : MY SUGGESTION
You have introduced Wagon R duo ( Petrol + LPG ), without reducing the original petrol tank capacity.
ESTEEM is highly successful car in all times. Why not you make it more consumer friendly and economical ---------- It is suggested that you should introduce Esteem duo [Petrol + CNG (14 KG maruti factory fitted tank]without reducing the existing petrol tank capacity in all models.
I am waiting for this car.

REVIEW : I own a WagonRLxi and driving for the last 30 months,excellent car especially for weekend drives, good mileage 14 in city and 18.5 long distance, only problem i am facing is the reverse gear which doesn't engage in the first attempt, my service centre Pratham Motors, Bangalore is unable to rectify this during my last 4 visits, otherwise i love my wagonR.

REVIEW : A nice car overall(look, Size..) Enough head & legroom in the front... would have cherished a little bit lateral room in the back..but nevertheless, it's fine!!
I simply love those extra room for cups, cans, goggles & umbrella.. a great utility to have in any car. In Calcutta roads (a mix of city and highways), I'm getting an average of 13.5 - 14 KMpL with the AC kept on occasionally. Nice gears, excellent EPS.. good view of the road from the driving position... overall, I would definitely recommend WagonR as a city car.

REVIEW : I own a wagon R. Its a good car at first. Since wear and tear my floor carpets have been slightly torn. As such I could not find any with the dealers at Siliguri and gangtok. The way of cleaning dirts inside the car as offered by Maruti is just hopeless. They blow air instead of vacummizing. Blowing of air just dislodges the dirt to spread it to the every nook and corner of the inside of the vehicle. Do you also think the same to clean the car. Some sort of vacumm cleaners should be given as free accessories instead of gold coins etc. Reply awaited. Facts and figures help to promote the business of the compony not false praises. I too love maruti vehicles than any other Indian cars but the way of its servicing is not that satisfactory as already stated as an example of blowing air inside the car. More facts after I receive any replies from MUL.
thanks

Suggestions: Power window on all the 4 windows and an internally adjustable rear view mirror would make this car just an ideal car for city driving.

REVIEW : The car is pretty good overall. There seems to be sudden tiny bursts of acceleration or drop in power when accelerator is kept pressed with a constant force. Dont know whether this is because of petrol quality, onboard comp making adjustments or change in road slopes. I had the same experience with a Maruti 800. Does anybody know if this is because of MPFI TECHNOLOGY ?Never had this with a 98 model carburetted Zen. That car was a PLEASURE to drive.

REVIEW : Comfort drive with good mileage
i purchased maruti wagon-r lxi on 12th august 2005 from sai service, lower parel, mumbai. now till this date no any major problems arised. after sale service is also good from sai services. till this date there is running 12000 km. some suggestions as follows may be useful to other wagon r owners. for good mileage - 45 to 55 kmph speed, in 5th gear or steady speed on 4 th and 5 th gear. i got maximum average as 24 km on mumbai-goa road from mumbai to khed-bharana naka.
gear experience - good. some time reverse gear not operate instantaneously. otherwise gear operates good. medium smooth. hilly area driving - good for climbing, use 3 rd and 2 nd gear but on 4 th and 5 th gear also climb normal steepnes. steady speed should use. other wise mileage will down.
in city area - use minimum gear change. drive 3 rd or 4 th gear in normal traffic like mumbai. but not in mohammad ali road`s terific traffic. otherwise there will be loss of milege.
on bad stony road - driving on 2 nd 3 rd gear. steady accelration. on dusty or sandy road - go 4 th or 5 th gear no problame but when there is climbing put 2 nd gear. more steepy in dusty and stony hill drive 1 st gear and then use 2 nd gear after soft road appeard.
maximum speed and good average - can drive smoothly on 120 kmph but milege will down in steady speed of 120 kmpl also. do not continous on this speed. for safety and good mileage drive 45 to 55 kmph steady speed is perfect. and will be good for long journey also.
with ac - ac picks more power and got powerless driving particularly on hilly roads, pikup goes less, use ac regulator changing for 4-5 minutes. in city. on highway put ac regulator medium leval. will got the milege in ac for 45 to 55 kmph speed nearly 14 to 15 kmpl.
speedometer - not good visual when driving. other wise driving condition is very good. can drive non stop 4-5 hrs. very comfortable driving climate. seating arrangement - very very good for 4 person with driver. total experience - very very good
avg. mileage can get in city with ac 14 without ac 16, highway - with ac 15 as per steady speed of 45 to 55 kmph. without ac can get mileage 20 to 24 kmpl. steady non inturpting speed of 45 to 55 kmph.

REVIEW : Excellent city car. i bought an LXi in Oct,2005.Wanted a compact car to tackle Mumbai city traffic. Happy with overall performance. Maneouverability, ease of driving, parking, comfort, all good. Best of all convenience - of a compact but spacy car with good leg room and good boot space.good for weekend family trips as well.
Braking, suspension, avg of 10-11( with AC - mumbai city), not excellent but def.comparable in the segment.
Sales and after sales very good so far from Sai Service. no real problems so far. Two services completed satisfactorily.
All in all, definitely good value for money. i would say, ideal city car.

REVIEW : This car is very very good car , but dealers of Maruti Udyog Ltd in faridabad ( haryana) like Alfa Motor & Batra Auto are very much cheaters , we had written complaint against them in maruti udyog ltd but we did not saw any action against them . Pl do not try to buy maruti car from faridabad dealers.

REVIEW : Its tall seating position gives very good view of the road and the surrounding. There is lot of space for your cups, goggles, camera, coins and other such stuff. Engine is very responsive. The EPS is great, its fun to drive. It gave me 17 km/L on highways with mostly a/c ON but with temp knob at minimum cooling. At the higher fan speeds it blows sound. The car is very stable up to the speed of 90-100. But above 120, I never felt comfortable, even on pune-mumbai expressway! Its not a car for high speed driving. I found it is very good and comfortable on typical countryside bad roads.
The side mirror is very inconvenient to adjust. They should provide an internally adjustable one.
Overall it is very good car. Great blend of fun, fashion, practicality and value for your money. I strongly recommend this car. The maruti service experience is also very good.

REVIEW : If you are Tall and heavily built, this is definitely the car for you. Much more leg room than any other car in its class for the drivers. EPS gives effortless driving pleasure. I have completed 5000 Km's now without a single hitch. Gear shift is little notchy with long throws, but definitely value for money car. Milage with low A/C in Bangalore is 11.2 KMPL. In Highway it gave me around 16 with A/c. |
