2022 Maruti Brezza: Observations post 5,000 km & multiple highway trips

This suspension eats up bad roads. Not sure if I am abusing it but as of now I am getting faster with each broken stretch.

BHPian cr4nkshaft recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

Finished a trip yesterday which was named "Southern Lasso" - a result of how the route looked on Gmaps. Kolkata-Hyderabad-Hampi-Coorg-Cunoor-Pondy-Vizag-Kolkata, and a few local runabouts, clocking a trip total of just over 5k km.

Had a few additional insights, adding them below.

  1. For overtakes, come down from 5th to 3rd. The grunt is there, just a gear below. On spirited highway runs I kept switching between 5th-3rd-5th and no overtake was scary or late.
  2. The climb up to Ooty was fun. Took it mostly in 2nd, had to shift to first when encountering diesels climbing. They exploit the low end torque to the max on the hairpins (no complaints, one will drive their vehichle to its positives).
  3. Car is very well insulated, to my ears at least. Music at moderate levels keep the minor road noise at bay.
  4. This suspension eats up bad roads. Not sure if I am abusing it but as of now I am getting faster with each broken stretch.

I understand I am still in the honeymoon phase, but am enjoying every KM till now.
