2009 MARUTI ESTILO REVIEW AND FEATURES


Maruti Zen Estilo was first introduced in the Indian roads in 2006 after stopping the production of Maruti Zen. But the sales statistics of the Zen Estilo proved that it was a flop upto an extent. The reason was that it didn't have the compactness and cute look compared to its predecessor. The failure of the Maruti Zen Estilo forced Maruti to renovate the Zen Estilo. As a result the modified model was introduced in the Indian markets recently. The new model has changes in the design, engine and even in its name - Maruti Estilo. Ready to read more???

Design
The new Maruti Estilo's bumper, front grill and headlight have been modified. Fog lamp is included in the bumper. The modifications give the new Estilo a mature look. The rear end design, dashboard, knobs etc. have been retained.

Gear knob and power window switches used in Ritz and Swift are used in Estilo also. The VXi model has electrically adjustable rear view mirrors.


Engine

While Wagon-R's engine was used in the old Zen Estilo, the K-series petrol engine as in A-Star has been used in the new maruti Estilo. The K-series engine has incredible power, high mileage and sudden pickup. As the engine oil needs to be changed only once in 10,000km, the running cost is also less.
