Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Maruti Suzuki Alto K10
- Looks cute: Small size, 13-inch wheels and a curvy shape.
- Comfortable seating: Accommodating enough for four adults with adequate space.
- Usable performance: Feels peppy and returns a good fuel efficiency too!
- Smooth AMT: Not as slow and jerky as regular AMTs.
- Light on the pocket: Proven reliability and low service cost.
Maruti Suzuki Dzire
- Looks distinctive: New design elements give it an identity different from the Swift.
- Excellent boot space. Can store an entire suitcase set along with two soft bags.
- Comfortable ride quality: Cushioned over regular imperfections, and limits movement on sharper potholes too.
- Ground clearance: 163mm is more than enough to drive easily over rough roads.
- Safety package: 5-star Global NCAP crash test rating and 6 airbags as standard.
- High mileage: Returns around 15-16 kmpl in the city in regular driving conditions.
- Offers feel-good features like sunroof, 360 degree camera and 9-inch touchscreen.

Maruti Suzuki Alto K10
- Limited space: Not wide enough for three in the rear.
- Misses out on comfort features like powered mirror adjust, rear power windows, reversing camera, driver seat height adjust and steering height adjust.
- Rear seat practicality: No door pockets, cup holders or even seat back pockets.
- Refinement on highways: Engine gets noisy post 3000RPM.
Maruti Suzuki Dzire
- Low engine refinement and performance: Feels dull with a full load and overtakes require planning.
- AMT transmission: Slow and jerky on the highway, and upshifts quite early leaving less usable power.
- Limited headroom: Sloping roofline limits headroom for 6-footers.
