        Overall good package as if now… Bt Maruti-Suzuki should offer more powerful engine… it may take some time for R&D even though it has collaborations with other companies for technologies. Company can also use that engine for Kizashi or even completely failed Grand Vitara.

        Convinced That Maruti Is trying something more then else…they Do…

        If not anything else…this car is still going to get attention since it’s from Suzuki…There is something worth more then other’s….That’s the power of this brand…

        maruthi is more of a marketing company than an automotive company…….

        see for urself- diesel engines made by fiat.

        petrol engines R&D by toyota (k-series engines).

        and loooooooots of cost cuttings by making the car very light. try ramming a maruthi with any european cars like fiat, vw, skoda etc etc.

        even this car is some other marketing…[Read more]

        yup, there could be a 1.4-litre VTVT petrol motor that puts out 95 bhp… but will have very less takers owing to the skyrocketing petrol prices.. An MPV with a diesel engine is almost like a standard among MPV buyers. Isn’t it Rohit? :D

        Well if the ZDI trim comes with Dual A/C and within 10lakhs on-road,may be considered just because its a Maruti and mileage aspects

        68 bhp makes liva stand in line with Figo diesel, so sufficient power… mileage of 23.59 kmpl means, on-road, we may get 18-20 kmpl… and its a proper 5 seater. only if you ignore some bad plastic bits, the car is a promising buy.

        Etios is an ugly looking ripped off vehicle and the same applies for Liva… Manza offers an unmatched 90ps wid class interiors… The petrol engine was too noisy.. I think the diesel version would suppress a bass tube easily and unbearable vibrations… Ppl who bought etios are not xactly happy customers… Its a cheat on brand name…

        well it can beat swift, dzire, manza, vista and verito if the mileage is good.all the best Toyota.the only issue is waiting period sld not be longer and maintanence sld be affordable.

        The exterior of LIVA is good but the interior is too worse, as compared to any INDIAN hatchback!
        Toyota made a great car but due to interior it’s proven that TOYOTA doesn’t have experience in developing interior for INDIAN consumers!

        If the petrol version of Etios is having vibration & noise issue, what will happen to diesel variant?

        I would like to see a head on collision of etios with any of its competetors..

        specially the fiats!

        would be fun to watch the etios getting crushed!

        The petrol engines were more noisy than a bass tube, wonder if the diesel version could do the twice.

        they jst cant beat the multijet diesel engines . . . . Toyota should hav to do btr with their petrol version . . . Instead of launching a diesel. . . . .

        @Pranay yes its true,infact many cases are mainly for the noise vibrations in the cabin the cost cutting in both the cars are made too much! A member of other forum gained backache because of the seats

        If you go and complain them about the issue,they will say that they are giving a cheap car from toyota so they cant do anything for it.is that the answer what a company will give??Tata Guys are best with Manza

        toyota is givin us dissapointments after dissapointments………… underpowered engine and they’r not really aggressively priced. i think they’r overpriced… i really think they’r taking the indian consumers for granted.. sad. the etios sedan may do decently well, but i think this is the final nail in the liva’s coffin.. RIP

        Thats true Anupam, Many owners in other forums are reporting real bad about the vehicle. The company has to be taught a lesson to never cheat Indian Customers.

        My Alto K10 gives 68ps of power out of 1000cc and only 760kgs. So power to weight ration is best in the class. And I get video games like control steering and maneuvering this car. On road priced me about 4 lakh. Of course with 2 wiper string not single as in Etios :)

        or even with a Ford Figo . And in this case the Liva’s engine will come and sit on the front seat .
        i have a Fiat Punto and my elder brother has a Ford Figo .
        And I love both the cars .
        It’s like best of both worlds .
        Liva’s dash sucks . :)
