New PKDM Alto vs JDM Alto

[pwuser153423031074]

My father is going to buy Suzuki Alto. Which one should he buy and why? Please compare their build quality, paint quality, transmission, security (immobilizer installed or not?), ground clearance, required fuel quality.
* New Pak Suzuki Alto Automatic AGS variant.
* JDM Alto 2015 S Package CVT. Auction Sheet etc verified.

First of all let the new alto launch in the market. Only than can a realistic comparison be made. For e.g we dont know anything about the price of any of its variants, what kind of interior are we getting in that price etc, so no comparison can be made unless all variables are known first.

The most important things with PKDM Alto would be a comprehensive warranty and the new car aroma!

[pwuser153423031074]

If you wait for the launch then you might miss out on the pre-launch booking benefits.

[sleeper]

Benefits like a "Chance" to be waived of from the balance payment ..... this would not be my concern atleast
.
Wait it out....check the car on showrooms....pretty sure local alto will have raised ground clearance for local roads....warranty is a plus point

so far pak suzuki website does not have ALTO announcement or booking plans announced.

seriously something is wrong as mehran is still there and no sign of new alto over website

[pwuser153423031074]

PakSuzuki website only gives a link to this website

Never go for something blindly. It could anything amazing or a total piece of shit.
The so called discount wont be that much and the first units always have issues that are resolved gradually so wait for the launch its just a week away.
Check the build quality yourself and the is it worth the price. Take a test drive on the Cultus AGS so that you have an idea what AGS is like then decide which to buy

There are some things which u just cant compare. JDM VS PKDM? Are you serious? Apart from the new car aroma nothing can beat a JDM.

[saad.ikram.5688]

Bro not everyone has same preference as you.
I also go for JDM hands down but people have different preferences. What if he wants warranty for a peace of mind, what if he wants a brand new spot less 0 meter car then, what if features dont matter to him he wants a new car and the local suzuki thappa for better resale.

Build quality ofcourse will be never comparable to JDM but its for him to decide which beats which and for which reasons

[IceCold]

What benefits? Again its you who has to make the decision if those benefits are worth taking the risk of putting your money in all unknowns. If i were you, i would wait it out. These companies have made this a habit to not launch the product first before taking bookings. This is a corrupt practice that shows malice in their intentions and should not be encouraged. Period!

[consigliori]

I myself am a sufferer..... need to replace my aging cultus.

These companies have made this a habit to not launch the product first before taking bookings.

In asean countries models are launched when plant is ready to punch the metal and drive trains are ready, orders are processed based on booking with 12 to 16 weeks delivery schedule.

@nickatnite @yusha @bombaywalla would you guys please shed some light about vehicle launch, booking & delivery schedule in your country please .

Nothing is wrong, the offical unveil is 15th June, the website would be updated later.

For now, Suzuki Pakistans Facebook page is promoting the upcoming Alto.

[paladin]

I am expecting a much stripped down version of the JDM ALTO. It's silly how they tinted the windows just to hide the interior from being seen by the public.

[pwuser153423031074]

I own a cultus ags. Its acceleration is not as smooth as the jdm alto.

[pwuser153423031074]

My dad isnt interested in features. He just needs a dependable daily runner.

[saad.ikram.5688]

Then its your choice if you can live with AGS or not of the new Alto
I personally didnt like it at all for me it was too jerky

[saad.ikram.5688]

Exactly everyone has his own choice. I think for you if after the launch build quality is decent (it will never be great) then get a brand new one it has the same engine and will be trouble free for many years to come and with warranty

[crude101]

I would personally go for PKDM. A new car with warranty
