REVIEW : I have a 2001 Mpfi Esteem VX. Man what to say about
this beast...Its a high revving car. I have done some modifications to
it for some racing activities and guess what I can kick out most of the
cars even of supirior engines. I love the way it revs up and it freely
revs up....try it folks ur esteem can reach a speed of 160 kmph in just
third gear .....believe it or not just try it... it should be an MPfi
model

REVIEW : The service cost for Maruti Esteem is too high as
compared to Honda City or anu other car of this segment.I paid INR6217
for my 4TH service of the car in which I thought that the Service Dealer
is charging too high Labour Charges. I am not at all satisfy with the
service cost of the car. Can somebody give me the mailing address of the
customer care of Maruti Udyog Ltd I want to pin point certain cost in my
Service bill which are too high. Even the hopitality was also not good
from the dealer in terms of Cutomer Treatment

REVIEW : The most loveable car ...You would reallize it after
you drive it...total pleasure with no problem..On highways, don't ride
it over 60-70 and this car would offer you a milage of 22
KM/l...Unbelivable...and I bet no car in this segment can beat it (
Accent, Ikon, Verna )...This car picks so fast if you know how to drive
it..gets on to the speed of 100 KM/hours in a minute....I am really an
Esteemed owner of my Esteem VXi

REVIEW : I purchased lxi in April 07. To my dismay i found
interiors not done properly and many other problems like headlight not
adusted, fuel lid would not open trunk would not open column and
constant rattling like in an old car. I am much disappointed in owning
this piece of junk. Potential buyers can contact me for details of
esteem lxi. Plz do test drive your vehicle before taking delivery and be
careful about dealers also. I have owned 3 esteem before and purchased a
new lxi thinking all the advantages my old cars gave me,but was
shattered, maruti is taking customers for a ride,thier esteem lxi (my
piece) dont offer what it promise .

REVIEW : I have got a Esteem Lxi since September 2005 and
clocked 32000 kms till date. I am not at all happy with the quality of
the car. All the interior material used is hopless and produces foul
smell when kept in sun in locked conditions. Overall finish of the car
is extremely poor. Lot of feedbacks are taken, but there seems to be no
response from the OEM. All parts like Battery, wipers etc that come with
new car are of bad quality and had to be replaced on my car within1
year.In fact wipers have never worked smoothly on this car so far, and
every time I visit the dealership, they do something, but to no good
effect. Doors are too light and start rattling time and again. I have
bought this from Chowgule Industries, in Panaji - Goa, who attend to the
car every time I take it there, but the same at my cost, for correct
their faults. Although they attend to the car promptly, all points are
not taken care of and due to which have to make numerous visits.
Presently one plastic panel b elow steering wheel is to be
replaced, since could not be fitted after removing time and again for
various repairs. This is pending for last 2 months now. Of course the
pick-up, power and performance of the engine has been very good, however
built quality and drive is very bad. Advice to all is not to buy this
vehicle if you are spending 5.0 lacs, since lot of other options are
available.I for one would never buy a MARUTI, since the car is not good
and to top it service also is not good.

REVIEW : Wonderful car of its class. Cheap price wise and
durable with high resale value. Service and parts very cheap, for
example tail light of esteem is one fourth of any other car of its
range. Cng can be fitted and good resale because it can be used as taxi.
Maintenance is almost as low as of maruti 800. Luxurious and
comfort..........you will feel when you will buy it

REVIEW : If you are considering a 3 box among Ikon, Accent or
Aveo, I suggest close your eyes and go for the Esteem VXi. You get most
of the premium car stuff with a most comfortable drive. Quite friendly
on the pocket and maintenance free. I am loving my car for the last 6
months since I took it out of the showroom. Happy driving on an ESTEEM!!

REVIEW : I bought Black Esteem VXI last year in April 2005 from
Pasco Automobiles. I did a market survey and also looked for features
and was confused in Hyundai Accent & Esteem VXI. However finally i
made up my mind as the CD Player and Sproiler were available in Esteem
as per my budget while in accent i had to shell out another 55,000 for
such features. Its really a classy car. Gives me a mileage of 16 KMPL on
highways with A/C on. Pick is a issue right now however its a fact that
after crossing 10,000 km the pick up will raise. I dont want to comment
on the leg space as all others have alreay mentioned. However looking at
the pocket the space is sufficient. Exteriors are excellent and they
are topped with excellent service provided by the dealer Pasco
Automobiles. Its definitely a good buy . Go for it.

REVIEW : I bought my maruti esteem in Mar 06. I was surprised to
see the 1st paid service as high as Rs 4500. That is really expensive -
this is equivalent to a honda city - so how is this car any cheaper in

REVIEW : I purchased an 10 year old second hand Esteem LX.It
gives mileage of 12-14 kmpl in city and 15-16 kmpl on highway. But
though it gives less mileaga I enjoy good running, smoothness and
extremely good pickup. Instead of giving very less mileage I enjoy
driving this car. I purchased it at the price of a bike. I often travel
on highways with my family, which is not possible on a bike. Two months
before I visited Pune, on the Bombay-Pune highway I topped the speed of
20kmph. I was very impressed with my car. I love my car very much.

REVIEW : Hi, I have gone through all the comments and
difficulties in Esteem, I bought my car in August 2006, I accept all the
tech. difficulties, faced. I also have gear suspension, problem, but
very minor, happens sometimes. Free Service at authorised service centre
also to be improved (i.e) not up to the expectation. They take so many
feed backs from me, but I don't know what happens to that, (i.e) I want
some response from the other side, so that I can correct if I am wrong.
But look and fuel consumption wise it is the best car in it's category.

REVIEW : We got our Esteem VXI BII in July 2003 and have never
had any trouble with it ever since. We are getting 14-15 KMPL in city
limits with the AC on. Our black elegant Esteem even comes with a
spoiler which enhances looks. Interiors are Ok, engine performance,
suspension and handling is outstanding, especially since its a fully
loaded car with all features. However, Maruti could have fitted a CD
player instead of the Kenwood Radio/Cassette Player.
Fantastic buy, wonderful value for money. You'll never be sorry if you
buy this car. Incidently it is the national rally champion in its class.

REVIEW : MY SUGGESTION
You have introduced Wagon R duo ( Petrol + LPG ), without reducing the
original petrol tank capacity.
ESTEEM is highly successful car in all times. Why not you make it more
consumer friendly and economical ---------- It is suggested that you
should introduce Esteem duo [Petrol + CNG (14 KG maruti factory fitted
tank]without reducing the existing petrol tank capacity in all models.
I am waiting for this car.

REVIEW : Esteem is indeed a good car. It has the potential to
become the best car....I have few problems with the gear box of the car.
I cant shift gears as smoothly as i want. Interior of the car can be
improved. Maruti authorised service centers are not giving a good
service.............Maruti should seriously make an attempt to upgrade
the car. It needs to be taken to an altogether new level.

20000kms), the car is now post 1lac km mark but no sign of trouble....
awesome pickup, top speed and fuel efficiency of 13kmpl in city and
17kmpl on highway are really something to tak about...all i have done is
got the car serviced at regular intervals that too the spares are pretty
cheap.... i would recommend this car to anybody who has a small budget
and loves to smash mud in the eyes of other costlier cars with its
unbelievable pick up.... GO 4 IT

REVIEW : I bought Maruti Esteem VXI-BSIII in December 2005. The
car is giving me a mileage of 13-14 kmpl in city with AC. The car has a
very sluggish pickup. You HAVE to raise the engine to atleast 2000 rpm
for a decent enough start. As far as aesthetics and useability goes the
controls on the dashbord are of 90s era. The gear shifting is not at all
smooth , I feel Maruti definitely needs to do something about their gear
technology in ALL their cars.

REVIEW : Well after 3-4 months research in the market and
dealers,i lastly opted for Maruti esteem LXi this feb.(between
Ikon,Indigo,etc.) due to late mover, i got best discounts from competent
auto.
Maruti esteem is most probably the best car comparing to others in the
same price range..Most effective is the looks from outside. Its grille
just like Baleno gives a look of a bigger car from front than it
is..Interior is good..but not the best quality.Space in front is good
but rear seats are somewhat clumsy.leg space is also very little.Boot
space is ok.
But comparing the price and the service network, it is the best car to
be recommended in its price range.

REVIEW : An Excellent car. However it has one design flaw for
the front power windows. The movement up and down is not smooth....it is
jerky & rattles.Ever since I purchased the car this has been the
only sore point. Complaints have not been satisfactorily attended to by
the dealer/manufacturer.
