        The Figo diesel titanium costs Rs. 572500 ex-showroom Delhi you can also consider the Swift if you don’t mind waiting for it….you can also buy the TATA Indica Vista VX Quadrajet. It’s got a claimed mileage of around 23 kmpl…is spacious as well..but the Figo is a really good car and fit and finish will be better!

        Dude.. no doubt its a gud car with spacious interiors but engine is bit less powered.. u cud also try Vista Quadrajet.. one f d bst diesel engine. the same unit is used in swift, ritz, punto too also its very fuel efficient…

        i would suggest the punto for ur req. or else try polo/fabia. if u ok with the slightly noisy figo diesel, then its an ok bet. much better than anything japanese/korean

    Maruti Swift or Nissan Micra (diesel)? The car should be comfortable, best handling, best features, best average in city traffic conditions. Daily usage would be 20 to 25 kms. Should be under Rs. 5.50 lakhs.

    What are your options as the Swift waiting period climbs to 6-9 months?

    Maruti Suzuki Swift has an enormously long waiting period of 8 months for the diesel top-end variant, the ZDI. Total bookings of the Swift have reached a high of 90,000, and Maruti continues to have production problems in its plant. Here’s our take on what could be some options for you, and more importantly, what are the delivery periods for those cars.

    What dealers are saying about stopping fresh bookings on new Swift

    Dealers across India have stopped taking fresh bookings for the new Maruti Suzuki Swift over the past few days. The production of the Swift was affected due to the workers unrest at the company’s Manesar plant. At the same time, total bookings for the car have gone up to 90,000 within just two weeks of launch.

        Huge Hike ….. I hope that was a sarcastic statement …. By the way just check the Price difference in the I20 CRDi base and Swift VDI. In the price you pay for i20 base CRDi you will get a Dzire VDi + you can even threw away some accessories in to it ….
