Spirax1 Posted November 16, 2009 Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 From my Swift-Punto SUSPENSION forum, came to know that Punto's Suspension is superb. Good in handling. Great Package. But why isn't the Punto selling? Also Autocar's Diesel's fight says that Punto is over-weighted can you say why is it so? It is also low on performance does this mean that it is unable to pick up high speeds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creativebala Posted November 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 Seems you are just like me man, I am a great fan of Fiat & GM, and I think we sail in the same boat, I think our fav cars will also be Spark & Punto on its segment. It is also low on performance does this mean that it is unable to pick up high speeds? Actually Punto's First gear is sluggish, to get the best power out of it, Shift to Second gear as soon as possible, and in few sec, Punto starts to take off, wrt MJD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shift to third gear as soon as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creativebala Posted November 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 but much better than first gear. This is exactly what i am trying to say to people who feels PUNTO is SLUGGISH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangc Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 That maybe the case with the MJD, but no such probs with my 1.4, 90 bhp petrol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spirax1 Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 So why such difference between SwiftMJD and PuntoMJD? Yes creativbe I am a fan of Fiat(All cars) & GM(All cars) Since I am not a blind Indian! Fiat does a well pick up by launching Punto & Linea. I have a doubt does Punto and Linea have same interiors? I fell asleep after seeing Punto for it's looks. For me a real car buyer is: Who makes decision from his friends or himself but only from those who is aware of. See the International car scenario.(In terms of companies) Doesn't feel bad of others sayings about the car.(For me on buying Chevrolet) Why I mentioned these is that Fiat and GM average companies according to Indians.

Spirax1 Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 In A/C which is better? Punto or Swift? And also is Punto's comfort levels inferior than Vista? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rahul1810 Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 @spirax Vista is class leader in comfort. So yeah, every hatch except probably Jazz are inferior in comfort to Vista. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rahul1810 Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 Just because it is spacious is not the only criteria to buy a car. Else I dont think even a single fiesta, or a swift would have sold. There are many factors that come in buying a car, space is one of them. Also I am very happy with the Honda City we just bought so new car does not seem anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rki2007 Posted November 23, 2009 Report Share Posted November 23, 2009 Vista is really spacious than Punto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangc Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 Vista scores over Punto only in one category -the cabin space! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rki2007 Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 can any one compare the pros and cons of Vista quadrajet v/s punto v/s swift1.3 mjd and rank each of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arreddyy Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 1. swift multijet 2. punto mutijet 3. vista quadrajet vista + great space + super value for money + decent performance of engine and ride quality - altough there is improvement over last indica, but the quality of plastics is not upto mark - steering feel is not that good - no abs punto + best looks + ride quality + well kitted + great steering - mediocre performance - large turning circle - average gearshift - resale may become a problem swift + good performance and most refined engine of the comparison + nice steering + comfortable front seats - rear feels cramped because of legroom and small windows - small boot - rattles - all black interiors attracts heat and tends to increase the cabin temperature quickly in summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rki2007 Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 @ arreddy - Additional demerits of swift that i would like to mention is rear view from inside the car while reversing the car is very bad when compared to punto and vista. As far as Swift is concerned- You say the most refined engine- Even though the same 1.3MJD is used, how do you say its the most refined only in swift. rki20072009-11-26 06:12:53 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CYRUS43 Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 Its not exactly the same 1.3 lit engine. The Technology is the same. The Process of manufacturing may be a little different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sudeepd Posted November 26, 2009 Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 As for Refinement of Engine (the Engine Noise), the Insulation Material used in the Engine Bay also plays an important role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harikkuttan Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Dear All, I attended one free checkup conducted by FIAT my intention was to slightly loosen the clutch. But I came to know that The clutch is hydraulic and I will have to take the vehicle to Bhopal for service. Can I loosen the tightness of the clutch while maintaining the completeness of the clutch or how can this be optimized. Some times it happens like this that while putting to reverse gear TRRRR sound comes and the gear is not properly engaged. This happens at full clutch condition . Do anybody had such experience. My vehicle is Punto Active1.2L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
