Maruti Ignis Maintenance User Reviews

Owning/Driving Ignis Zeta MT from last 14 months, crossed 9500 kms on odometer till now. My buying experience:As I had already owned secondhand Maruti 800cc and driven Alto K10 (1000 cc) cars in the past & now wish to buy a new car for the first time, I was looking for a 1200cc car, within budget of 6.5 lakhs, so shortlisted Swift, New Hyundai Santro, Tata Tiago and Ignis. Took test drive of each of them. Facelift Swift VXI was overall a good car but costing at around 7.06 lakhs OTR, Santro Asta test drive was not satisfactory. Tata Tiago XZ was at 6.30 lakhs OTR but had 3 cylinder engine.Further I found that Maruti Swift, Baleno, Dezire & Ignis have the same K12B petrol engine generating similar power.Due to heavy year-end discounts the Ignis Zeta MT was costing me at 6.39 lakhs OTR. In this price I was getting a 1200cc 4 cylinder engine car with 15 inch Alloy Wheels, Push Button Start, Body Cladding, Blue tooth & steering control enabled music system having 6 speakers, Fog lamps, Rear-defoggers with wash wipers, Auto folding ORVM, Extended warranty, NEXA Card & Fast tag. Unbeatable deal, So ignored all other options and finalised the Ignis.From test drive to delivery of the car, NEXA dealership have given me a very nice and memorable experience.Pros:Peppy driving.Standard safety features across all variants.Very good mileage, 14-15 in city & 20-22 on highways with AC on.High ground clearance.Sufficient head and leg room.Easy ingress and outgress.Low maintenance & service cost.Many small features in Ignis such as Door handle design, adjustable head rests on all seats, 60:40 foldable rear seat, Split tail light, bigger tyres, etc are found only in costlier and premium cars.Cons:Rear design of the car is very unique but not appealing to the masses and it is the sole reason behind low sales figures of the Ignis.Body panels are weaker compared to other cars as it easily get dents from hitting of small stones on the road.Somewhat stiff suspension.Servicing at regular Maruti Dealership, so no NEXA experience after purchase.My experience with the car:My routine driving is on poor roads. I have also taken a long road trip with family in my Ignis. But no problem at all.First 3 services within a year are free from Maruti. It costs me around 3600rs. for the oil change, wheel balancing alignment and minor spares till today.From my own experience I can say that Ignis is the Best car at this price point. I recommend to buy NEXA card, as the whole cost of the card can be redeemed within a year.Extended warranty is a gimmick and may be avoided.

The best car you can go for city wise as well as for highway driving.Company mileage claims to be 20.89 according to arai, City average mileage is 14-15 but i got way more than that on long drive and highway.Max i touched was 28.Full up your tank and see it for your eyes a combined driving of city leading to long drive on a highway would surely give you 28 or even more.I have uploaded pictures on google reviews under nexa as there isn't an option to upload pictures here.There are so many pros about ignis - mileage, Ground clearance, Turning radius, Low maintenance, Park anywhere easily, Made for the roads of india specially narrow lanes, Suspension is too good, The cool and unique design, Accessories and parts are easily available.I would definitely vouch for it as i own one.So if you are a first time driver or someone who moved to india and looking to get your first car, Then for sure this is the one.Trust me you cannot go wrong with it.

It is all packaged in one.A baby suv car that gives you the feel of driving an suv at the maintenance cost of a hatchback.The zeta model boast allows wheels and a 7-inch touch screen which is quite a good to have in feature.I have been driving this for a year now and enjoy my rides.City avg comes to around 16-18 kmpl almost with dead traffic zones, And highway i have got around 20 kmpl.

Braking is superb.Steering good.Comfortable for city rides.Maintenance very low.Legroom in the rear is decent.Suspension not good.Head light worst road grip not good.Overall a entry car good for city commuting.For urban use 70%.Do not drive above 90 kms speed.
