Re: The Maruti Vitara Brezza @ Auto Expo 2016

Visited the Maruti showroom yesterday to have a look at the car. There was one top end Zdi+ dual tone being delivered to the customer already. There was no test drive available because it was late in the evening. The SA asked me to come back the next day. Apart from this, there was not a single conversation between me and anyone (read sales advisor) at the showroom though I spent a good 15 mins in and around the car. The immediate comparisons I drew was with my Baleno in which I drove to the showroom.

What I liked:
1. The car had a good stance overall when viewed from the front.
2. The dual tone makes the car stand out.
3. Presence of roof rails makes the car look a little more bigger.
4. The rear seats can accommodate 3 people easily.
5. The armrest at the rear is placed at a comfortable height and is wide enough for 2 hands.
6. Good boot which is nicely spaced as well.
7. Cruise control.

What I did not like:
1. Feature list on the different variants. (E.g., How can you not have indicators on the wing mirrors in Vdi variant when Swift and Ertiga get them?)
2. Only diesel option.
3. The rear seats lack support. Front seats lack under thigh support.
4. Plastics quality was just average. Even though a new texture was given on the car, it did not feel like it belonged to a 10L+ car.
5. Long antenna up front. How cheaper was it for Maruti to add this from the Celerio and not lift the one present in the Swift/Baleno?

I'm not in the market for a new car but if I was, I would have picked the Ecosport any day over this. There were some suggestions made earlier that the Brezza was supposed to be launched in the NEXA outlets but the Baleno was pushed in because of the Scross fiasco. But I believe that with the features that Brezza comes in (at least on the lower variants), it did not belong to the so-called premium NEXA showrooms.

However, this will sell. As most Maruti cars do with the Maruti muscle and service network to match them. And because of the Brezza, the Ecosport had to cut down the price. God bless competition. Always good for customers.

Re: The Maruti Vitara Brezza @ Auto Expo 2016

Not sure if this is the TV commercial but just saw it on Twitter. The Twitter link didn't work so checked it on YouTube and found it.




I didn't like the voice over in the advertisement and also the background music. S-Cross ad is way better.
The antenna vibrates violently at the end of the commercial.

@anycatd Congratulations man, I am still waiting for the TD and you have your hands already on the car. A little bit jealous to see that. Please post some detail shots of the ZDi interior. Also do post if you get the ICE upgraded. Waiting for the pics and congrats again.

Thanks This pic is taken at the dealers place. Yet to complete formalities before taking it home. Banks closed today and tomorrow so can't complete the procedures. Will select some auspicious time.

Have to decide on what accessories to put. Head unit change will be the first thing to do. Is it cheaper to buy at the dealer or some place outside?

Re: The Maruti Vitara Brezza @ Auto Expo 2016

Got the delivery today (Symbolic). Mine is the first one to be delivered at the dealer. Actual delivery will be by early next week after the RTO formalities. It's a Yellow ZDi.

Re: The Maruti Vitara Brezza @ Auto Expo 2016

Congratulations anycatd and wildinstincts for the delivery.

I see no Zdi plus delivery till now. Hmm let us see when can we get our hands on to Brezza.

One question did the dealer try to persuade you into buying accessories ?

Re: The Maruti Vitara Brezza @ Auto Expo 2016

@Anycatd, hearty congratulations. Superb color I must say. I have booked a ZDI+ Red and Black combo, but in two minds whether to switch to blue and white.
@Wildinsticts- Congos for the car, Nice choice.

One doubt, the tyre size is 215 R16. Right?
That was a typo thanks for pointing it out.
It is indeed 215/60/R16 and here's another picture
