Maruti Ignis | First Drive | Autocar India

[@abhilashkhajuria]

Most of the comments are harsh but i like its sporty compact design. Its powerful enough for its price and economy is also good. Its good for tight city roads i think.

[@harip4125]

In city 10.5 km/l and in highway it gives 16 easily with AC. Bought Zeta AMT this Jan 2019. Enjoying it both in city as well as highways. Am 6.1 ft tall and feeling much comfortable.

Recently I have purchased ignis ..And I love it... Enough space both front and at rare with big boot space for bags etc....Engine is very refined..Runs smoothly.... It's may look small in pics but atleast give it try... Don't run in bheed chal....

[@parthghorpade9333]

i will definitely go for Ford Figo which comes feature packed with 6 airbags and a great music system than any other car in this price range. And aslo a better service from Ford.

[@mverick5444]

Parth Ghorpade ignis does not compete with figo.

[@parthghorpade9333]

M@verick Brother i know that it dose not compete with Ford figo. But if you see the price of ignis for top end model(it's about 7.50 lakhs*) right???? So in my opinion Ford Figo is a very good product in that price range. I'm talking about a price brother,not about any competition. Both cars are good in there price range. But Ignis has very cheap plastics inside the car. And it's dose not suit the car which cost you for almost 8.50 lakhs on road.

[@mverick5444]

Parth Ghorpade ya i know figo is better. stupid pricing by maruti.

Because It's a Maruti and enjoys Nation wide service. Also it's easy to get rid of.

Yes, This design is very nice outstanding looks

[@raarth_gameplays]

Front designed by Suzuki and the Rear designed by Maruti.. LOL :P

[@RoodeMenon]

So...Ignis is the replacement for the Ritz? I really liked the Ritz. Shame that it's discontinued.

[@Singhsaab99]

Take a minute to appreciate the whole autocar team Their reviews are so damn good keep it up !!!

[@BhaskaraVenkatesh]

I'm disappointed with Maruti's strategy of calling it a crossover but not giving it the features which would matter to it. It has no difference in terms of engines to Swift, Ritz and Baleno. I wish this had a VGT 90HP engine instead of this 75HP one with slightly more kerb weight. I was very excited about this car and it still looks good but would have to drop it from the list of my next.

[@aroradaksh]

Feels a little like BMW Mini Cooper :p

[@majidkhan21391]

The reason why car companies wont release beautiful designs like vw scirocco, opel astra new gen, honda civic hatch, in india is.. We are judgmental...dekhke boldete hai ki fail hai...

[@bramap9079]

Is the higher spec comes with 6 dotted LED tail light like the Europe model? Does it come with sliding rear seat too?

[@harisinghmunda2617]

Front styling is good. Interiors are also good. But what happened to the Rear? It is big disappointment for Ignis.

[@ajaykumarkonkati]

The car has got a lot of personality, very European standards and retro styling. Very desirable from the youth 's view. It should sell well in the market.

[@ponygt6629]

Anything with Maruti badge sells in foolish Indian market Nowhere on planet earth has a situation where a brand when specifically criticized by a safety organisation like GNCAP still continue to sell unsafe crappy shits like Alto,Wagon R,Celerio,Swift,Dzire,... So maruti cheats Indians and Indians blindly trust Maruti and make their corrupt bellies fatter

[@ponygt6629]

Nishant Dadwal U mean on road? or ex showroom price? On road Toyota Etios and Ford Figo are the best, safe and smart, etios has passed UN56 safety test despite its light built, same for Ford, All Ford,VW cars are SAFE

Haryana registered car in TN . renuka u can try in ecr stretch to find little winding roads but not to an extend u could find like Kerala roads. u might test the car to fullest potential in such roads, to identify blind spots, power surge, swallowing pot hole, cornering, body roll balance etc etc...

[@sivashankarsivaraman]

Happy that you shot this video in ECR. Feels home.

[@jhon1986m]

I feel the only issue with Ignis is the top end Alpha doesn't come with Amt.

[@Jz-fj5ki]

it's very easy and convenient car to drive in the city and in highway.. its a mile muncher considering the good comfy seating and peppy performance with added auto gear shift .. i liked it a lot only after thorough full on testdrive of the petrol amt. its a nice package with easy handling nd fun character..styling will slowly becomes likable.. it is the only car which is very unique in styling..

[@daljeeto2]

Nice Review as always by Autocar ! I drive celerio AMT which I bought when it was launched , but let me tell you , AMT doesn't fancy you at all , you will feel that you are driving a sluggish car , it only works perfectly when you are on soft pedal , the MOMENT you press pedal hard on any AMT , that's right any AMT car you will feel gearbox behaves abnormally as the smoothness in gear shifts is still a matter of R&D for MSIL . I take up with them but you know - when product is sold its all yours. Conclusion - GO FOR MANUAL ONLY .

[@felixjose1982]

Amazing unbiased review as usual. Keep up the great work. Some feedbacks from my side post my visit to the nearby Nexa showroom to see the Ignis: 1) Quality isn't impressive. 2) I did sit in the Zeta variant and had my leg touching the steering wheels with the steering at its highest position. The Zeta variant doesnt have seat adjustments. 3) I am 6ft tall and my head was hitting the roof while getting into the rear seat. 4) Another shocking thing was the lever used to open the hood of the car which reminded me of the lever used in old Ambassador. 5) Costing cutting has been done on the seat cushioning too with the rear passenger knees hitting my back while being seated.

Which car do you think the Suzuki Ignis is based on? It looks so retro and quirky, it has to be based on a some sort of classic car.

[@tampubolonevelyn7271]

Mini cooper founder name is Sir Alec issigonis. Is name ignis related to Issigonis? But the purpose he made mini is to create cheap small good gasoline cunsumption car. Same with my ignis. I use this ignis in indonesia petrol tipe since 2018 that use AGS matic transmition that actualy manual transmition with computer so has only two pedal. Very valueble money car with price same as the cheapest toyota or daihatsu car in indonesia we get the Nexa car branded from suzuki in india. Imported to indonesia. Very top in gasoline consumption in indonesia 17 km/ L in trafic jam, quiet car , good looking exterior and nice interior design, we get extrem Air conditioner panel, LCD monitor music player JVC. I like using AGS transmition we can use manual that can fast aceleration in city and use automatic mode in highway. In maintanance fee and oil is 1/ 3 daihatsu or toyota. Body plat ignis is so thick, more thick than the highest price Toyota car Fortuner SUV. Ground clearence is high so match with the majority bad road in my country. Before i use Daihatsu Sirion hathback low ground clearance that often body repair because road condition. Now i had driven 40.000 km since 2018

[@Vamsee_K]

This is what you get when a Maruti engineer and a Mini Cooper engineer get high together.

and for the rear design, the design engineers of Maruti 800 are also invited to breath in some dope!

Relax dude.. I not complaining about the safety. In fact, I am quite Happy with the service.. Just that they don't innovate. Designing even Dilip Chabaria can do..

[@ponygt6629]

Prabhat Gupta It dosent matter whether i am relaxed or not buddy But Maruti is a stupid brand , and with over 1800 service networks any brand can have good service, Maruti is taking advantage of India , all they need is market share , not to give quality product to customer

Pause and go that is mentioned in blue zeta version is not because of AMT gearbox but due to the diesel engine turbo lag

Thanks for this video. This April, will be launching here. Auto lovers very exiting and can't wait to review it by ourselves. Greeting from Indonesia.

[@akhilverma4675]

Looks interesting!! Reminds me of Fiat UNO.

[@gizmoknow-how2022]

UNO was a product from Fiat?

[@prabhatgupta8110]

Maruti's done it once again!! Change the over body but use the same engine.. this one gets the same engine as swift, dezire, baleno, brezza (diesel).. it even sounds the same as swift in this video. No offense to Auto car but Maruti needs to do some good R&D for new cars. Upgrading body and cabin features won't do it in the evolving car market. I wonder when they'll get the 2 door 2L swift sport to India. Anyway, good luck..

[@arshgoyal2079]

Prabhat Gupta bro this is what every other car manufacture in India doing changing body but engine remain the tried and tested engine basically they are reliable also it helps them to cut the cost

[@anantparashar]

After cutting costs they price it more than 8 lakhs for top end model?? What's more frustrating is the abrupt change in interiors where you will be treated with rotating nobs from the maruti of 90s.

[@rajatchanda6347]

What is the petrol alpha AMT ?

[@sachinraghav7972]

Is new maruti shift would be priced higher then Ignis? coz by looks of it swift looks better from outside then this ignis which looks quite ugly from rear..I think I have to wait till Swift launch then will decide b/w ignis and swift

[@ishwindersinghwalia6769]

sachin raghav I guess it would definitely be priced as like the baleno is plus they'd launch it in Maruti Suzuki not the nexa.

[@sachinraghav7972]

@ishwinder bro I thought they will launch new maruti swift in NEXA too... r u sure that tht it will not be in NEXA?

[@ishwindersinghwalia6769]

sachin raghav I think so, if swift sports it's launched, it could be a nexa offering. That's my openion. I don't think the swift is coming any soon

[@Seahorse84]

[@living4angel]

Short review: Petrol variants r better, Maruti cars always feels very lazy before 2000rpm, Front looks cool, back end looks UGLY dumb "not retro", not a SINGLE person on this planet will like this back, no AMT in top models is stupidity, A very capable good car but pricing is bad, Interior is pretty nice though. It will sell only bcoz its Maruti, People should look for new Swift or save some money n get an i20 or Jazz.
