Not white but here's one car with entire bumper painted Orange:

This looks yuck.

I hope we get to see a white one . I remember seeing a Creta that had the bumpers and even the panels painted white.

My mama has bought a S-Presso yesterday. It's a replacement for his Canary Yellow Nano.

I will try to get his feedback on the car & share it here.

A quick paint editing on the screenshots taken from the shared video of orange bumper painted S-Presso.

Looks like the car has got double-chin or some kind of abnormal-growth.

I like the looks if the bumper is black as compared to body-colour. One of the few cars where the black bumper suits better just like the Maruti 800.

Re: Maruti S-Presso, the SUV'ish hatchback. EDIT : Launched at Rs. 3.69 lakhs

I am unable to fathom how this got green lit. I saw it in person and it doesn't change my opinion. The front looks like a bulldog staring at you in anger. I get it, looks are subjective but seriously am I so out of sync with so many who have booked it?

I fail to accept that for some buyers looks don't matter. It may not be on the top list but it does exist and surely there were more options even within Maruti in the same price range.

The new Wagon R looks classy in front of the s-presso and why did they have to name it after my favourite beverage? That is just so unfair.

+1!
In fact - If I were a competitor, I'd pay the Arena dealers to paint the bumpers this way & make the car look odd from front. With the normal black lower lip it seems quite okay otherwise in comparison.

And the colouring is highlighting the lack of design imagination in bumper. It actually looks as if 2 units of same bumper are stacked!! Black lower half was hiding this well. MSIL better instruct Arena dealers not to body-colour this bit.

Couldn't resist from posting this. It looks like this after the paint job . Glad they decided to go with the black bumper.

Sorry for the OT.

Looks straight out of Desi version of MadMax. Seems like a Scorpio, a Bat-Mobile and a piranha had wild time together.

An elderly man was driving a convertible orange mini with the roof down in our neighborhood today (not judging him in anyway!) and there I saw its dashboard, I think S-Presso`s dashboard looks far better considering whats being paid for it. Good work Maruti.

I hate this tin box on wheels. I cannot digest we Indians can buy anything that Maruti's patch work team makes. I was in Rudrapur about 200kms from Delhi few days back. My taxi driver had recently bought this car and said this car is in huge demand ( I counted more than a dozen )as it looks like SUV and we sit high. My ride in the car was for about 150kms and left me scared at speed of 80kmph. The car feels like it will overturn on curves, rear seat made my tummy rumble. The Renaults are so much better even to see on roads.
I found many people laughing when they looked at the box on wheels.

Please clarify: S-presso is used as a taxi? You were in that taxi? Or was that your driver's comments? Saw a dozen S-pressos already in a 150km drive! Really? Or you were confused with Spresso, Brezza, maximos and Jeetos?

To me it looks like a scaled down version of LADA..
(No Brickbats Please)
But S Presso will be hugely successful as it's a Maruti product.
