Review of Maruti Omni

Maruti Omni has been Manufactured by Maruti

Maruti Omni can accompany anybody during the lazy holidays. Its seating capacity can accommodate a group of people going for picnic or outing. Stylish, smart and sporty looks of newly launched Maruti Omni is very comfortable. Its reclining and sliding front seat, enough leg space and ample headroom make it more spacious. Its sleek sliding door and new side body graphics are giving new taste to the car lovers. Apart from this, smart new steering wheel, clear lens headlamps and head lamp leveling device are lining up to market this car properly. With 37 bhp @ 500rpm and torque of 6.32 kgm @ 3000rpm, this car is running strong over the years. MPFI engine fulfills all the Bharat III emission norms.

The features that make this car safe and secure are like side impact door beams, thermoplastic bumpers, booster assisted disc brakes, secured seat belts, laminated glass winshield etc. Turning radius of 4.1 m, Omni solves the purpose of narrow lane driving, keen turning and small space parking.Maruti Omni Van is basically a Japanese commercial van that has been converted with some modifications into a passenger vehicle. This is basically an underpowered vehicle mainly due to its excessive weight. It is heavier than a car because its body is not aerodynamic.

Also due to its high stance it appears to be slightly unstable. In high-speed crosswinds, the Omni becomes unstable and shaky because its wheels are small and the centre of gravity high.The Omni also has a tendency to pitch and bounce on an uneven terrain.

The ride quality is also not up to regular standards due to the suspension, which appears to be of leaf spring lineage. However, maneuverability is very good for a car of such dimensions and is far superior to that of the 800. Its turning cycle, too, is better than the 800s.In terms of space efficiency, the Omni beats the higher-priced breed of small cars. The vehicle can accommodate five passengers and stack their luggage easily. The rear sides offer greater comfort with plenty of legroom and door-to-door carpets. The sliding doors help in easy entry and exit when in a crowded parking lot.Maruti Omni comes in three variants-Omni 5-Seater, Omni 8-Seater, and Omni LPG. Maruti Omni is a perfect family car.

It has enough space for your lifestyle needs-whether you are going on a picnic, weekend outing, or for a game of golf. You can pack your entire luggage without thinking twice. Omni provides ample headroom and legroom to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable journey.The Omni comes equipped with safety features like front safety rod, side impact door beams, thermoplastic bumpers, booster assisted disc brakes, ELR type front and rear seat belts and laminated windshield to ensure your safety.
