Big Family Long Drive And Air Bag భద్రత - మారుతి ఈకో

First I would like to clarify that this review is entirely based on my experience with the vehicle Maruti Eeco. Being a mechanical and marine engineer, It was obvious that I had to do complete research before purchasing a perfect hatchback. So, I compared many cars before buying this one and CarDekho really helped me out by giving all the correct specifications of different models of different companies in a single window. I bought my Maruti Eeco (petrol) on 11th November 2018. It has been a wonderful experience until now. There is not a single problem which I am facing while driving this car. I drove 7890 kms in such a short span. So, one can imagine how much I am in love with this vehicle. Coming to its Pros - 1. Ease of drivability - Be it in city or highway the car will never let you down. Especially in the city the low-end torque of this car comes out to be very handy. One can drive this car in 3rd gear without giving acceleration and engine will not stop. 2.Excellent steering dynamics - You can feel the flow. After a turn, it retains its position so swiftly. I just love it. 3. Gear Box - The gear shifting I felt is too smooth. I can feel each position. The moment is also very precise. 4. Excellent Engine - Talking about its engine. 4 cylinder engine. 5. Infotainment system - This is personally my favourite. Not only on papers but simply it's the best in class. Be it the sound quality, base, ease of operating. It's simply the best. You will get to know once you use it. And, no other competitor is offering you touch screen with inbuilt navigation in its second upgrade model except Ford. 6. Looks - It depends on person to person but I personally love the shape and look of this car. Interior also looks good to me and the quality of material used is also nice. Seats are comfortable, cushion quality is superb. Boot space to me is decent. Because its a hatchback and this is what I accept from a hatchback car. If one wants bigger boot space he or she can go for Sedan or SUV's Safety standards and Built quality - what I like about ford is that it never compromises on safety. Coming to its built quality. It is good not the best as Volkswagen cars have superior built quality. But it's still better than other companies. 7. Mileage - It is giving me approx 13kmpl in city and 19 kmpl on highway. This is quite acceptable for a petrol vehicle. Considering its kerb weight i.e approx 1050kg which is far more than Maruti swift i.e approx 850kg. This gives Maruti an advantage of mileage and instant pickup. Thus, being an inferior engine it offers good power to weight ratio and better mileage but for this, one has to compromise on safety. And, this I strongly condemn. 8. Ground clearance - 190 mm of ground clearance is what you need on most of the Indian roads. Forget about off-roading but considering Indian roads. Especially mine in Haryana, one needs to be cautious of huge speed bumps and pits. In the coming period, EBD and rollover prevention will also become a definite safety feature among Indian cars. Cons - I seriously feel that this car doesn't offer you any negative aspects. According to me, everything is perfect considering its value. So, here's my verdict. I think this car is a complete package. It is a value for money If one is looking for a hatchback with good drive dynamics, better engine performance. This car is a must buy be it petrol. Both are best in class and that too at a reasonable price than its competitors.
