      Mr aayush every car has its pros & cons & so does maruti have .. The biggest con in maruti is its poor appalling exterior tin can built quality . Suzuki provides low exterior quality & lightweight cars in India due to mileage . in other countries they sell decent quality cars . I have myself shut the doors of a celerio , the sound & body literally felt like a tin can however maruti has good exterior quality cars - vitara brezza & s cross . maruti must improve to match their own standards . see we should not expect lavish quality in cars under 10 lakh but decency should be there

      Don't mind mate but it's not necessary that if a car gets lighter then it means it's less safe than the predecessor, most of the car try to shed weight with newer generations but they also upgrade their safety equipments, in fact the safest cars are lightest ones made out of carbon fibre
