I have some very similar observations

I have some very similar observations. I was looking forward to this car but i must say i was disappointed to see it from inside.
Few things i didn’t like.
0. The colours in which spark is available are simply said “pathetic”. They have used that absurd green color for launching the car as well. I have no personal hatred for the green color but this one is just not pleasing to the eye.
1. The dashboard: This could have been a lot better. The co-driver’s side dahsboard is very curvy and you can’t keep anything there as it will simply fall off.
2. Common right and left drive: I think GM tried to be a bit smart here and
this might turn off atleast some prospective customers. What they have done is that with minimal changes to the steering and the front panel controls they can make right hand and left hand driven cars. The negative is that the wiper and side indicators are on the opposite sides. Like if you drive in India you would expect the indicator to be on right and wiper on left. Here it is opposite. Also the speedometer is in the center. So if you are mom is siiting in the car and she peeps in the speedometer u better slow down !!!
3. The backseat: in the LT version there is a 60:40 divide. Though a good addition and unique in this segment the, th dividor is irritating if sit on top of it. So with 3 people in the backseat one will defintely feel the “level difference”. Good idea, bad implementation

beauty of the swift

you have to be crazy to compare swift and spark…the bottom version of swift has the same power ,torque and mileage stats as the top end..and is much better than the top end variant of the spark…besides also think of the drive pleasure ,handling,pick up and the beauty of the swift..

Has AIRBAGS options

A good car it seems. It gives 63 bhp which is given by its 1100 cc competitors….thats is good. Looks good. Has AIRBAGS options too in higher variants.
Chevy, keep up the good work.

price and the performance package

The price and the performance package (63 BHP + 90 + kgm of torque) is very attractive.

Orange is also good.

Orange is also good. We should buy.

compare spark with santro

what is tis funny arguement….you should try and compare spark with santro and may be wagon r or estillo !!!there is no comparison between the swift and …well….anything in its class which itself is not very wide….swift is the best car the world has seen in sometime and comparing all parameters it is the best value for money..i own a swift and took a test ride of spark the other day…..i cannot begin to imagine to compare the two…they clearly are ifferent class..its loke comparing the swift with pajero or lancer!!!

i had say

i had say pick the car which comes well supported in your city…

I was actually planning to get U-VA

Hey there!
I was actually planning to get U-VA, over all the rest, Spark, Swift, Getz, Zen Estilo & wat not. The thing is, I’m reading all these mixed reviews about the car. Price, power…(hope there’s not anything left to add!)
My only other option was Getz. I’m not even going to look at Swift cause I just dont dig it. I havent test driven both U-VA or Getz. Am thoroughly confused now that I’m effectively befuddled. Care to shed a light?
Btw, I stay in Sikkim so REALLY concerned about the power bit of U-VA. It’ll only be the base model for me in both options.
Thanks!

CHEVROLET AVEO U-VA

If u wanna change ur car,
then go for CHEVROLET AVEO U-VA.
u can compare this car wid swift and getz.
its a fully loaded car, starting wid 3.90lak.

new Spark

I am so happy to listen the announcement regarding the lauch of new Spark which is new version of Matiz. I am driving Matiz since 2002 and so fond of this model that no other model in the country look so attractive that Matiz. Now with the launch of new version of Matiz ( SPARK) I am so enthuse to get it as early as possible. Good luck to this new model.

i liked matiz very much

i liked matiz very much……….

wonder car matiz

Having been a great fan of the wonder car matiz for years, i have waited patiently since the news of spark first came out last year..and that for sure is going to be my first car..kudos GM for reviving the majestic beauty.

Comparing a 1 litre engine with a 1.3 litre

What kind of nonsense are we discussing ?? Comparing a 1 litre engine with a 1.3 litre ?? and a next generation Swift with an upgraded version of a car which once rocked india (Matiz) .. i had a matiz and i have a swift also .. Well if someone is planning to buy a car please go for a SWIFT .. the only benefit that SPARK will give u is a better mileage because of a small engine.. Apart from that SWIFT is too good to be compared with anything GM can produce.. It would injust to compare both these cars as they belong in two different segments.. they have different gear ratios , different torque and bhp , and different features to offer.. all in all if you dont care much about the mileage (12kpl in case SWIFT) then u know which one to buy.. As of now nothing compares to SWIFT .. Maruti has done it again.. Go to the respective web sites and check their specification.
Swift has many advanced features at a very attractive price.. we were planning to buy a second one and you can talk the dealers into a good deal these days .. Cheers .. Ride Swiftly Ride Safely..

the car looks good

the car looks good but DO NOT FORGET what had happened when tata launched indica for the first time…so let it get launched and wait for the feedback and if it comes out good…then go ahead and buy it. simple.
naveen

Maruti’s Cars Suck big time.

Maruti’s Cars Suck big time. That why we bought a 2nd santro.

20000 Kms with my Swift with an average of 11 KMPL

I’ve completed 20000 Kms with my Swift with an average of 11 KMPL. Its quite a fun to drive this car, handling is too good.
The car build quality is poor, it rattles a lot. Many time i dont feel like driving a B+ segment car.
The Maruti dealer service is very pathetic, i dont understand how they get these excellence awards from Maruti. I think Maruti should wake up now and should seriously think about delivering quality products & service to Indian customers.

swift rattles like shit

yup mate. swift rattles like shit. i am selling it off i think now.

Whenever they launch this vehicle

Whenever they launch this vehicle , they better have in place a very gud service and parts network !!!! GM’s India network isnt gr8……after all , i do not want to go on a long drive , have a breakdown and then find out that the nearest service centre is hundreds of miles away !!
