Maruti Suzuki S-Presso FAQs
Trending Questions on Maruti Suzuki S-Presso - Answered by Autocar Experts
I currently own an i20 (2012-2014) Sports petrol variant and want to upgrade because it’s quite old. I use the car very infrequently, mostly weekends or occasional family outings for four, and don’t want to spend much since I already have 2-3 bikes for daily use. My budget is around ₹5 lakh; I prefer an automatic petrol car. Should I buy a used or a new car? Please suggest suitable options.
For a budget of Rs 5 lakh, there aren't many automatic new car options available.
You could opt for a Maruti Suzuki S Presso VXi AMT, which would serve your needs. But as you need to carry four family members during your occasional weekend use, we would recommend upgrading to a Maruti Suzuki Celerio 1.0 Petrol VXi AMT. It is a bit more spacious and upmarket.
However, yes, given your limited usage and need for passenger room, we would recommend checking out a used car
I am a senior citizen looking to purchase a new car with an automatic gearbox and within a budget of around Rs 5 lakh. It should be best suited for city driving and occasional highway trips to nearby cities. High safety features are a must.
Since you plan to drive on the highways regularly, you could consider picking a pre-owned, safer car from a higher segment from reputed platforms like Spinny - the used cars are not only thoroughly inspected, but the company also offers a comprehensive warranty for added peace of mind.
Please suggest an automatic car below 4 lakh.
I want a small car with good fuel efficiency. My budget is ₹6 lakh. I’m considering the Alto K10 and S-Presso as I want reliability and hassle-free ownership. Which one is better, or should I consider another car?
I have a budget of ₹6-7 lakh and want a fuel-efficient car with good ground clearance and basic features like central locking and power windows.
I currently own a Kia Sonet GT+ DCT, which my wife uses on weekdays for a 30 km round-trip in bumper-to-bumper Chennai traffic. She finds the Sonet increasingly cumbersome to park, especially on narrow lanes near her office. We are looking for an automatic car within ₹6 lakh on-road for city use. Priorities are an automatic gearbox, excellent all-around visibility, hill-hold assist, easy parking, and good mileage. Please suggest suitable options.
At your budget of Rs 6 lakh, on road, only two options fit the bill, which are the Renault Kwid and the Maruti Suzuki S-Presso. Both come equipped with 1.0 petrol engines, AMT gearboxes and hill-hold assist on the automatic variants. Of the two, the S-Presso edges ahead for your requirements, as it offers better value for money, slightly better visibility, especially while reversing, and slightly better mileage overall. However, the differences are marginal, so it really comes down to your preference. Alternatively, you could also consider buying a more premium used hatchback within the same budget, for which there are several great options on spinny.com.
Hi, I am planning to buy my first car, gear-free, mostly for city and suburban rides, for a family of four. It should require low maintenance. Budget under ₹5 lakh. Which car should I buy?
