Hi Guys,

Wanna ask u some reviews about the Suzuki Alto. tongue.gif
Whether this car is better than Myvi & etc
Hope to get some feedback from u guys or gals icon_rolleyes.gif


Small cars offer big environmental advantages: Since they’re made from relatively few materials and are concomitantly light, they save energy and inflict less damage on roads. For these reasons, Suzuki sees downsizing as a key to realizing a future in which people can enjoy eco-friendly motoring. But how comfortable, convenient, and stylish can a small car be? Suzuki has answered this question in an impressive way with the new Alto.

The new Alto reflects the unparalleled small-car know-how that has made Suzuki so successful with minicars in Japan and with compact cars such as Swift in markets around the world. Ideal for singles, couples, families and empty-nesters alike, it’s definitive response to the need for eco-friendly motoring-a car that delivers day-to-day comfort and convenience together with cost saving and a low environmental impact.

this car is not meant to be compared to the myvi as the myvi is catered to those simply looking for the biggest car for least amount of money. buyers who opt for this are most probably looking at things like 1) styling 2) simply cannot stand a local brand name (regardless if it came from daihatsu) 3) not too concerned about the shorter spec sheet when comparing with the myvi 4) prefer a non-local brand 5) may have just a bit more money to splash on a car 6) are really looking for a smaller car but can't stand the viva's boxy shape... i could go on and on but i guess it gives you the idea.

best competitors for the new alto are the new i10 1.25, the i10 1.1 and the picanto 1.1.

personally, i like the looks of the alto and the picanto (different but not outlandish) but for performance, the 1.25 takes the cake. Just that the mature looks of the i10 is perhaps... too serious for me. would love the combination of the picanto body, the 1.25 engine and the alto's dashboard! biggrin.gif

The car looks absolutely horrendous, even worse in person (office near suzuki showroom).

Maybe good for short trips to the grocery store.

Alto is only 1 litre engine while Myvi is 1.3 litre...but Alto have more fun handling just like Proton Savvy. And Alto is also available in manual transmission. smile.gif
