Pros
- The Maruti Suzuki S-Presso comes with SUV-ish proportions thanks to the upright stance. It also gets raised ground clearance of 180 mm, bold claddings all-around as well as almost vertical pillars.
- The S-Presso gets a funky and smart-looking all-black cabin with a dashboard that gets body-coloured inserts. The main highlight is the round centre console that takes inspiration from the Mini Cooper.
- The car comes equipped with the brand's SmartPlay touchscreen infotainment system, which has smartphone connectivity with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
- The S-Presso uses the company's tried and tested 1.0-litre K10B petrol engine, making 67 bhp at 5,500 rpm and 90 Nm with manual and AMT options. The car also comes in a CNG version, offering an impressive fuel economy of 31.2 km/kg.
- The Maruti Suzuki S-Presso has a wheelbase of 2380 mm offering a good headroom and knee room at the rear.
Cons
- The Maruti Suzuki S-Presso looks boring and outdated with an unattractive design. Although looks and styling is a subjective matter, we feel that it could have been more aggressive-looking.
- The car misses several essential features such as rear power windows, day/night IRVM, rear defogger. Maruti could have offered these features on the higher trims.
- Though it gets a driver-side airbag, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors as standard, the car scored zero-star crash test rating in the Global NCAP. We think Maruti Suzuki S-Presso could have had better structural safety. Passenger-side airbag and seatbelt reminder for both front passengers are offered as standard on top-end trim only.
- With a width of 1520 mm, the car is best suited for 4 adults. It becomes a bit cramped for three adult passengers in the rear seat. However, accommodating two adult passengers and a child is not much of an issue.
- The engine is a bit noisy and sound damping could've been a lot better, particularly from the engine bay.
