It is the car which everyone buys because he can not buy any other, or he wants to sell it. It is ready cash car and very good sale resale value, but still i bet its the worst car in the whole world, even if you compare it with 624 cc Nano made by Tata motor company india (which sells in india for 167k fully loaded= 320k PkRs) this this meharn will fail to justify its price of 550 for fully loaded still poor than 624 cc nano.
pak suzuki is the biggest theif and robber motor car company
About the car, it has 1982 G-08 carburetor engine. extremely noisy engine. engine is 3 cylinder so it vibrates a lot in idle condtion whcih feels inside the entire car. it can be fitted with AC but either car or AC will run, both cannot run at same time other wise car will over heat and/ or have no pick to even start from stopped at signal. more ever AC blower is very poor and has only two ducts in dash board.rear passenger are roasted and cannot get any air.
i have only given one star for fuel economy and that is only at CNG, not at Petrol. At petrol a 1.3 efi car will consume less than mehran,
This car has no safety and a real teen Daaba. this car has no comfort inside, seat are very hard, shock and suspension is very hard, rear suspension uses leaf spring which is only used in trucks other than this car now a days. it has no defogger, rpm meter, trip meter, remote fuel lid or back door open button,fog lamps, center console, cup holders.
it creates severe starting problems in winter on gas and even many times on petrol.
it has no road grip. brakes are the way very very pathetic and poor. inner space is very conjusted especially in front of driver, driver seems to be trapped between the seat and steering and windscreen, driving position is very bad, gears are the way too hard. alternator is poor, if you switch on lights, AC blower horn will fade out.
in factory fitted CNG version paksuzuki fit Rickshaw CNG kit which never speed up the car beyond 110 Km/hr. in short i want to kill all paksuzuki owners and share holder for making such a car at so high price.

I bought my chevrolet exclusive in 2005. Its the imported version with 800 cc engine.

To start with it is the best compact car around by a huge margin. Vitz comes in a different category and with a different price so cannot compare Vitz. Vitz is a better car than Chevrolet Joy or exclusive in my opinion.

Coming back to the car.

In last 5 years the only part that was replaced was reverse switch. Reverse light stopped working. Other than that the car is absolutely trouble free Mashallah.

Never been to mechanic, no unusual sounds, no cheap quality material used.

I love its fuel economy. It gives me between 18-21 km / liter on long routes and within city it gives an average of 13-14 km / liter. All this with ac and without extra effort to keep the fuel expense down by using a light foot etc. I don't have cng in it but I have seen trouble free exclusive / joy with cng. But who needs a cng when the avg is so damn good.

Its a safe car as compared to its competitors. It has the usual seat belts, plus it has collapsable steering wheel in case of impact with the steering during accident. The side doors have bars to give added protection in case of an impact.
It lacks ABS and airbags which is a disadvantage.

Front seats are pretty comfortable and a person of my height 6ft can easily and freely move around inside the car. Even the passengers at the back are seated comfortably something which is missing in santro, mehran and even swift.

The car is not built for performance but for its 800cc engine its pretty fast and if driven within limits it has good road grip. The height of the car is not great which in turns hits speed breakers or car breakers in our case, but height is kept low intentionally to keep a good road grip. Overall I can say that it can easily beat any car in its category with performance on stock engine.

Its a shame that the car couldn't make a place in the market and its discontinued now and a newer model is launched which is SPARK. Currently spark is imported and with high duties its not value for money in my humble opinion.
You can find a decent chevrolet joy in around 400k which is good value for money and overall I feel that its a car to keep. I believe my car can run trouble free for another 5 years or so.

The Daihatsu cuore is a car from the 90’s so it doesn’t feel like a modern car at all. It was built to be basic and cheap and it sure is basic, but cheap…I don’t think so.

Even the engineers at the Daihatsu dealership admit that this car has some design faults which can’t be fixed especially some clutch related issues. Apart from that it is very reliable and easy to maintain and it’s always welcome in the second hand car market.

Very economical too just about runs on the smell of petrol ; an despite what you might read in other reviews; it is quite a nippy thing; for instance if you compared it with other brands 1.0 litre cars ; this one is ...

...it can hold it's own on open roads and overtakes ok too as long as you plan ahead and give it enough revs; it's quite willing and nips up to 70mph quite smartly. and will hold this speed quite happily on the motorway. The engine is quite up to this sort of behaviour and very willing to rev through the range; and indeed one thing that did surprise me was the flexibility of the engine; which will pull ; as long as you aren't in a hurry ;

I drove 3 Nissan in past. Armada, Titan and Quest. All three were awesome and good solid rides.

Unfortunately in Pakistan auto market is at the mercy of government. They promote whoever they like. I mean Suzuki is still selling cars that are not even 3rd generation while international market is offering 8th gen cars. Pakistani consumer makes way less than civilized world but somehow Pakistani consumer has to pay more for these crappy cars. Same cars are available in other developing nations way less than here in Pakistan.

This situation will never change until people in this country are given free right to make their own decision. Government needs to get the hell out of car business. Its not Government job. Government need to stop taxing personal cars so much. Its a necessity and not a luxury.

Had it for about three weeks and based on that experience I would say that the car is well equipped in comparison with other cars of the same category. Power steering is as smooth as butter. Power windows and power mirrors further add to the list of things that would attract potential customers. After market CD player and that is all you need.
The engine is German and performs rather well on petrol. On CNG the performance is not effected BUT the life of the engine get reduced dramatically. The engine bay is too cramped up for local mechanics and only those with strong nerves or those with no brains get themselves involved with a Chery. Parts are available but only of you know where to look. But still its a daunting task. The ride is smooth but will become some what unstable on higher speeds and bumpy roads. All in all a good car for use within city and a no no for inter city. The accelerator position will take its toll on your ankle but the seats are comfortable and so is the leg room.

Hi,

I have purchased a zero meter Alto in September 2010 and it was my very new experience as my all family members has CULTUS and we have had a pretty good experience of Cultus over all.

Untill than I drove 11,000 KMs on ALTO, it gave me excellent CNG consumption even on AC, with around 210 kms in one cylinder of CNG, my experience is its over all good family car which you can rely. I installed Dunlop tires and its grip is good enough now, car's MP 3 player is good but have only two speakers in the front which is not enough for the good sound, I found two major cons in the car.

1. The gears are very tough to shift at the start, even after I changed the gear oil on first 1,000 km, still they are not hard.

2. Car's engine noise, its more than what I was expecting, but I would like to tell you the reason that it is because of the POTOHAR's engine that ALTO has replaced with his new body, but with more noise, I also felt that car's engine is more stronger than cultus's previous 3 cylinder engine mainly if you compare it when you drove it on mountains.

Over all, it was a very good experience, AC is chilling and it does not go to heated up if you regularly (Once in a week) check the radiator water and do not fill the bottle up to the mark that is MAX, try to use coolent instead of water in the radiator, my opinion is that car is expensive and we can get a cultus in that cost but on the other hand, you can see the over all cost of 1000cc or even 850cc cuore's cost has increased so much so purchasing ALTO is just to complete the need of a new car which you can easily rely on, and my findings are that when my car will start giving out work after 2 or 3 years, I will sale it out :)

Good part of ALTO is excellent consumption after I adjusted tappets on completion of 1000 kms, comfort and its cuts and shapes.

Other than that, one should not expect to get a Honda city's performance in that price which is already very high.
