    Why Suzuki always focusing on weak output engines? Meanwhile some Chinese makes they already done turbocharging 1.5L four or three cylinder motors.

    this is basically the Urban Cruiser in India... Toyota is focusing more on reliability in the long term. less components, less parts, easier to maintain.

    Honda makes a more powerful 1.5L NA engine with around the same reliability as Toyota’s.

    Honda also manufactures engines for Red Bull I also drive a Honda and yes I prefer the way my City handles compared to the Vios and Almera (previous Gen)

    But if you look at the best selling cars of 2022, the Rush and the Xpander (both powered by a Naturally Aspirated 1.5 engine) made it to the list. No Honda and no turbo-petrol 1.5L engine. So I guess the guys from Suzuki knows what they're doing.

    also i seldom hear bad reviews sa suzuki engines apart from them being underpowered compared to the competition. So i guess they really are after reliability.

    That honda L-series though, impressive!

    I always joke with Honda SAs that it seems like AC no longer wants to train their technicians as they have been using the L-series on almost all current models.

    Even the turbo Hondas use the L15 platform. The 1.5L turbo engine is used in the Civic, HRV, Accord, and CRV.
