Hi,
For the usage mentioned Petrol version would be better.Advantages are the lower initial investment by 1 lakh or so for respective variant in diesel version. Also recommended to check review on the selection of fuel versions. http://www.cartrade.com/auto-guides/petrol+-diesel+-cng-or-lpg-we-help-you-choose-999.html Posted: 4581 day(s) ago |

If your usage is 50KM then you can choose Diesel, I think your father is not aware of latest Diesel Crdi technology, I have Maruti Ritz Diesel and i use it only 40Km a day and i am happy with it. Now a days diesel engines are not expensive to maintain.Please test drive the Swift Diesel once along with your father, the o to 100km speed takes only 13.5Sec in Diesel and 12Sec in Petrol.
If you look style and performance then choose Swift Diesel. If you look value for money then choose Ford Figo diesel. Yes Diesel is expensive initially and will compensate you within 5years and the resale also will fetch you atleast Rs50,000 more then a Petrol model. Posted: 4581 day(s) ago |
