Hi Guys,

I purchased Alto VXR cng in Aug 2010, now its one year completed. I drove it 26000 kms so far, was just only changing oil and filter. I am not saying teh car is immaculate but one has to see the over all raise in price for all the cars in Pakistan. Santro is not cheaper, neither the Cuore so over all you actually do not get the value for money but what options you are left with? its the cheapest amongst others with AC in it which is quote comfortable.

I changed tires and installed Dunlop ECO, installed security system and seat covers, floor mats etc. Its reliable and never had any problem ALHAMDOLILLAH in long run. I took it to 150 Kms my self and though the engine was noisy but the drive was not like dangerous. Yes the breaking system is not that good, its average. Car do not have heating problem, until unless you fill the water bottle up to the mark full. Fuel consumption is not good but in CNG it goes to 250 kms in one full cylinder without ac, with ac its 150kms in local and 200 kms in long run. Gear conversion was tight but Suzuki dealer changes the gear oil at first 1000 kms free tuning, its better now. Engine is noisy because it has Potohar jeep's engine, but its more powerful on when you are driving it on mountains. Suzuki's over all quality assurance is worst so we can not say any of their model specifically is bad, what we get in cultus liana ? same door opening and closing issues - just an example. Car suspension is good enough and does not cause any noise if you drive it calmly in off road. We are left with no option if we have to buy a reliable family car which do not cause problem in long run, we have to buy mehran or alto, those who suggest to but second hand corolla or honda, do keep in mind that still they are second hand car and you can not rely on them when you are on motorway and surely do not like to face any technical issue with the car.

For people who are planning to buy zero meter, I would suggest you either put some more money and buy some more luxurious car like Honda/ Corolla or buy this Alto VXR cng and do the following things.

1. It will take long self because be default the tepats are tights, do not ask any mechanic to fix it, wait till 1st 1000 kms, than go for the dealer from where you have bought this car and they will adjust the tapets, starting will get superb undoubtedly.

2. Do the cng setting and convert to cng after driving 1000 kms first on petrol.

3. Ask the service manager to change or check gear oil so gear conversion gets soft.

4. Change tires, general tires sucks and also harms the suspension as they are very hard. Go for Japenese Dunlop (suggested)

5. Do the balancing and wheel alignment.

6. Do not over fill the water bottle, my car only reduces 2% water from the bottle, DO NOT OVER FILL THE BOTTLE, keep it up to the mark - FULL.

7. Change oil and filter every 4,000 kms either Zic or Caltex havoline, or shell.

8. While washing, put plastic on the distributor to avoid any starting problem.

9. Avoid taking it to the mechanic for pick or cng consumption, let the car settle down for 10,000 KMs, sometimes its cng quality which causes car do have the require pick up. (I did two tunings till 26,000 KMs.)

10. If you need any more information, contact me on my email - [email protected]

Thanks!

we have owned an alto vxr 2007 since we bought it new in august 2007. i must say car is great on cng.it gives better mileage as per km/kg on cng on our mehran which was also boght brand new. both cars are serviced at regular intervals with good zic A+ n guard filters at 5k kms. alto is a tonnes times better than the mehran and in erms of mehran its value for money. i.e back then we bought it for 507,000 n the mehran was a mere 1 lac cheaper. suspension is good n srt of corollaish. its a great car in its category for use in Pakistan. done almost 67000 kms fault free. gives excellent fuel economyon cng. has given me over 240 KMs on a tank full many a times without AC on long routes despite having 165 yokohamas(707 which are great n replaced with the same tyre at 58000) costs between 2-3 Rs / KM nowadays with AC n mixed locak n highway driving. rear headlights are expensive and so are the engine parts. but aval of cheaper chinese parts does the job. itts my daily ride n love her to bits. the pickis great. the key to the great performance is regular maintenance of the car n using quality engine oil n filters at regulatr interval with period maint done on time. the worst part is its fuel economy on petrol which is worst than my 1,8 civic prosmatec.overall i give it a 7/10!!!

Absolutely awesome car. One of the all time best redesigns of cars from the previous city to this one. Lovely style. Keep an eye on the front there cuz the new honda civic (already available in the middle east and coming soon in pakistan) is gonna have a very very similar front.
Smooth as silk. Slightly hard suspensions but on urban and long routes, its seamless. great looking interior. Cheapest brand new Automatic car here in Pakistan. I love its rear cuz it looks quite similar to BMW 318.
Some people say they dont get a reasonable fuel economy nothing above 7 or 8 km/l, please get your city completely checked by honda. You should get 11-13 in the city in summers, around 16 on the motorway and around 18 on GT rd.
THis is a very well balanced car in terms of the drive. It gives you immense control over your drive. Thanks to that, I have avoided a lot of hard situations, accidents.
Nice queit i-vtec 1.3 engine that gives you reasonable enough power. On automatic transmission, it might seem a little less at times but a more expert drives can take out more power from it.

I would never sell it had I been staying in Pakistan. Its a keeper!
