Which Is Best To Buy From Fb15 Or Corolla Ae110 Or Suzuki Swift ??

heavyD · July 18, 2011

Is it true ?? No difference in fuel consumption on swift or FB15 ??

what i heard is swift is good in fuel consumption than FB15 ............

There'll be a slight difference, but don't expect a 5 or 10 kmpl difference. Are you willing to go for a possibly inferior car over a negligible 1kmpl difference? If fuel consumption is so important, you should consider a Maruti.

many thankz

Macho,

Mmh I think it's about 9- 10 Km

My mum's friend drives a Suzuki swift jeep model 1.3 engine manual. According to her it does about 15 to 17 Kms/L also it's taller than a sedan car. But the problem is it can never be compared to a Nissan fb15 in terms of comforts. The seats are very thin and the leg space is not enough for me (I'm 6ft 4 inches tall). In terms of comforts speed and handling I recommend a Nissan FB15 super saloon. It comes with Climate control AC,rear head rests and chrome knobs also 100cc higher than the ex saloon for the auto ac system. But I've heard that some of the cars which were manufactured before year 2000 had some issues with the computer processing unit or that sort of thing so better to go for a car made after year 2000. Also This car comes with a 1.3 engine and According to what I've heard Toyota alliyon 1.8 and Nissan Sunny fb15 1.5 does better fuel figures than their 1.5 and 1.3 editions. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I've been travelled in all 3.

For me most comfortable was FB-15. Swift-Jeep model is not very comfortable car. FB15 got very good ground clearence. If you think of a car that suits worst road condtions that car can go, that would be FB-15. And I think FB15 is the easiest car to maintain in long run.

Ae110 is good car too. But in compariso spares / ground clearence / road conditions / comfort / maintanence FB15 is above better buy than AE110.

Although FB15 is comfortable it's a little lower than a swift so if you are driving in bad roads there's a possibility of scratching your undercarriage but swift has some suspension problems according to what I've heard. According to my point of view don't buy a car if your road conditions are not that good go for well maintained a 4x4 those are very hardy vehicles than cars. All types of cars except Indian and rally cars(AWD) like evo and impresa are made to drive in high ways where you don't find any obstacles like here in our country. Also don't get caught to the bad people who are going to sell you 4x4 cars of all these makes as they are very bad on fuel figures. It's best to check the under carriage before buying so that you can detect whether its a 4x4 or the undercarriage is scratched or damaged. Good luck!

According to my point of view a good ground clearance for a car means the lover the car is. because the higher the car gets it's dangerous as the center of gravity goes up and the chances of rolling over is high. Also you can't drive fast. And the comfort factor is very low in high cars. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

But I've heard that some of the cars which were manufactured before year 2000 had some issues with the computer processing unit or that sort of thing so better to go for a car made after year 2000.

AFAIK FB15 1998/99 models had a problem with the air flow sensor or the O2 sensor. But almost all cars on the road now has most probably replaced them, so there wont be any issue. http://forum.autolanka.com/index.php?/topic/6123-nissan-99-00-models/

I would go for the fb15 over 110 cuz FB15 is more comfortable, interior and exterior looks way better. handles better than 110 and it feels more roomy than the 110. I had a FB15 2000 Super Saloon for over 2 years I replaced the rear shock absorbers and that's it. I'd say its a very reliable car also. The only problem was that it didnt do very good on fuel. only about 8-9kmpl no matter how hard I tried. Thats the only reason I sold that car.

Also the carina is a good option, but for your budget you can only get a 97/98 301-302 old shell model. But still I think the carina is better than the 110 or fb15.

Don't be fooled by people who claim their vehicles give magical fuel numbers. An average Swift will do at the most, 2 kmpl more than an average FB15, that's all. In my case, the Cruze (aka Swift) does about 11-12 kmpl in Colombo with A/C always on. Expect an average FB15 to do about 10 kmpl.

My suggestion - once you make a decision about a car, move on. Don't keep changing your mind.

Again you are mentioning this 100cc thing. Are you sure?

AFAIK engine is identical in both cars.

And why there is extra 100cc for climate control AC ?

Also This car comes with a 1.3 engine and According to what I've heard Toyota alliyon 1.8 and Nissan Sunny fb15 1.5 does better fuel figures than their 1.5 and 1.3 editions. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Yes 1.5 does well on fuel over 1.3.

Noted. The few FB15 i've been used to get very rough treatment that the 110s I knew. It makes me think that I has more ground clearence. My bad.

Yes machan 1.5 ex saloon and 1.5 super saloon both has the same engine QG15DE 1497cc that produces 105hp, no extra cc for the climate control a/c. But according to this there are variants with more hp (2003/04 face lift FNB15).

agreed on the comfort and Maintaiinance, but ground clearens, nope. i remember when we had one, so many times underneath got scratched

erm FNB15 has the same engine as the FB15.

the Diffrence is the FNB15 has All Wheel Drive.

and does around 5-7KMPL

FNB15 is the four wheel drive model.

nexus · July 18, 2011

also 100cc higher than the ex saloon for the auto ac system

again you say this are you run both fb15 ex saloon super saloon in a dyno and came to conclusion about this?

Also the carina is a good option, but for your budget you can only get a 97/98 301-302 old shell model. But still I think the carina is better than the 110 or fb15.

you are correct both super saloon and ex saloon have the same QG15DE engine.

wow really like to see how the engine sound of it.

well guess its a very rare car then..

liyan · July 18, 2011

Why dont you consider mazda bj5p. I had a suzuki swift two years ago and with my experience it is not comfortable, poor in handling and stability. I sold my swift and bought 2003 mazda bj5p for 1.9mil, which has same fuel economy, really good in comfort and handling.

Rango2011 · July 18, 2011

Thankz everyone , you people help me lot

really appreciate

you guys r great ))

Im consider buying a swift , My home city is Badulla and will be good due to bad road conditions and hills and ect.....

and seems to be F/C is good point. Also i like that jeep model

Comfortable is the main issue but hope nothing bad much and able travel Colombo without much comfortable issues.

Most of people a said handling is good in swift rather than big car.

I know FB 15 is a great car, but as a boy lolz swift handy looking isn't it ....

What do you think ??
