It is a fuel - economic car , it can seat upto four people effectively , however it does not have any special specifications , in the VX engine , there is nothing factory - installed , but in VXR engine , there is factory installed A\C , just like the Suzuki Bolan . From it's production to now , it's passenger A/C vent has been removed , and headlights and tail-lights has been renewed . However after 2013 , the VTi engine has been installed for more economic performance of the car .
