0 1,816

Today we’re back with the owner’s review of a Static Suzuki Cultus. In this review, the owner shares his experience driving this dead-dropped Cultus and tells us about the modifications he has made to his car. This is the 3rd generation which was launched in 2017; this particular car is the VXL manual variant. It comes with a 1.0 liter 3 cylinder engine producing 67 hp and 90 nm of torque, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.

Purchase Decision

The owner’s parents bought this car for him for his university travel. At first, he wanted a Toyota or a Honda car, but his parents brought him the Cultus because of its better fuel economy. So he decided to modify his car according to his liking.

Modifications

Although this is a pretty standard car, the modifications done to it are what make it stand out. Most of the changes done to it are cosmetic and enhance the vehicle’s aesthetics rather than performance. The owner has installed a body kit and adjustable coil overs to drop the car according to his liking, 8 JJ 15-inch rims with low profile tyres. Moreover, the wheels are cambered for a desirable fitment, while other changes include LED custom-made tail lights, high mounted spoiler, black wrap on the bonnet and roof, a straight exhaust pipe, and much more.

Drawbacks

These modifications have surely made the car look a lot more exciting, but the drawbacks also come with it. Firstly, the car scrapes the road continuously at this height and cannot be driven over 40 to 50 km/h. The coil overs and camber make the drive uncomfortable and compromise passenger comfort. The owner must bring the car to its stock height every now and then when he has to drive it properly. Highway travel is dangerous if the car is at this height with the fear of a tyre burst, and the negative camber reduces the tyre life as the tyres wear out quickly from one side.

Fuel Average

The owner gets a fuel average of 15 to 16 km/l within the city but this is mainly due to the inability to go over a certain speed. The car is driven very carefully; hence it is never highly revved, which makes it fairly fuel-efficient.

Spare Parts

As per the owner, spare parts are readily available in local markets, including genuine parts and aftermarket modification parts that he has installed. Prices are normal, which made the modification process a lot easier.
