Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which is the better car, Maruti Alto K10 or Hyundai Grand i10 Nios?
  • Both cars are great in their own forte. The new Maruti Suzuki K10 really impresses but there are some shortfalls as well. The engine gets vocal at higher revs, there are absolutely no storage spaces for rear-seat passengers and there are some key convenience features missing too. Apart from this, the Alto K10 is hard to fault. It is likable inside out, the engine is powerful with excellent drivability, it has more than space for four people, the ride quality is comfortable and it is extremely easy to drive. The new Alto K10 not feels like a proper upgrade over the 800 but also shines overall as a great product. On the other hand, Hyundai cars are packed with features to the brim; and as per the Nios’ competition and price range, it’s well equipped. The pre- facelift’s highlighted features included a smooth-operating eight-inch touchscreen system, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a wireless charger, automatic AC, and rear AC vents. New additions like automatic headlamps, cruise control, a tweaked instrument cluster, a USB Type-C fast charger, and blue footwell ambient lighting add to the convenience and make it better to be seated in. It has been three years since Hyundai launched the Grand i10 Nios, and this facelift came just in time. It’s still known for its stylish look, premium cabin, refined and smooth engine, and good drive quality. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test drive before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
Q. Which one is the best Alto K10 or Celerio?
  • Both the cars are amazing in their own forte. Maruti Alto K10 the carmaker has equipped it with a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, keyless entry, digitized instrument cluster, steering mounted controls, and manually adjustable ORVMs. On the other hand, Maruti Celerio has a spacious and comfortable cabin, a peppy engine with high fuel efficiency, and a practical feature list. The reason to buy the Celerio remains singular you need an easy-to-drive city hatchback with lots of fuel efficiency. Moreover, we would suggest you take a test drive so that you can check the performance and comfort of the car. You may click on the given link to check out the nearest authorized dealership details as per your city.
Q. Which variant is best iin Alto 2022?
  • If you want features like fog lamps, a 7-inch touchscreen system, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, four speakers, a digital speedometer, front door power windows, steering-mounted audio controls, manual AC, and remote keyless entry then you may opt for Alto K10 VXi Plus.

    Opinion seltos 

    I own seltos petrol.As per my opinion seltos is the best badass in suv segment i purchase seltos in 2021 and till now i have no issues in my car, Mileage is reached 20 if you driven car in softing way your car on highway, Otherwise in city 10-11km/litre, Build quality has little issue, Body is not as expected otherwise although i have never touched my car in 3 years, My car have one hand always so driven is very soft and no issue.At last i say this is must buying car if you compromise with bulid quality.And driven softly, Otherwise you enjoy very much.Lovely car 🚗❣️.
