Test drove this car today. Totally agree with pwncake except the engine.
The engine is not disappointing. Its tooo disappointing. Seriously its very bad. i stepped almost 70% of the throttle only manage to get the car moving. Even the SA tells me that expect the worst before i start the car engine. Along the way , the SA kept bashing the car its so so so bad. And he suggest me to take Myvi over Alto if you are talking about the power.

I have never driven any other 1000cc auto car except Viva. I can say , in terms of power delivery , Viva wins.

Everything is very nice about this car except power delivery. I guess its really a car for a .. girl?

I had exactly the same experience while comparing the alto with hyundai i10 1.1l. At some point I floored it to see if I could a little more reaction from the car.
i10 1.1 is much much more responsive. Haven't tried the i10 1.25 yet.

Well, I'd tried alto 1.0cc, i10 1.1 and 1.25 Kappa. In terms of power I would say 1.25 Kappa definitely wins, it's very very responsive. But comparing alto 1.0cc and i10 1.1l I think there's a little difference, i10 1.1 is slightly underpowered proportionally than alto i10 due to its bigger size.
In the end I still choose suzuki alto because of its fuel efficiency, design, and the resell value (japanese car).

Where did you manage to test drive the i10 1.25? Thanks.

Not sure, but the 1l sure seemed underpowered.
