Here is an incredible ownership review of a Maruti Eeco after 10 lakh kilometres. This is no ordinary feat. To drive any car for that long is an achievement, particularly in India. Our infrastructure is admittedly not the best. Apart from the proper highways and expressways, the condition of our roads is terrible. Hence, the components of cars don’t last that long. But the fact that someone was able to complete 10,00,000 km is commendable. What is even more interesting is the fact that the vehicle is still in great condition. Here is what the owner has to say.

Ownership Review of Maruti Eeco After 10 lakh km
This video comes from mukesh chandra gond on YouTube. The YouTuber is interacting with the owner of the Eeco. The odometer of this van reads around 8 lakh kilometres. However, the owner reveals that he has tweaked the reading by a lot for some reason. In reality, the car has been driven for around 10 lakh km. This is simply mind-boggling. He also mentions that there have been no major issues with the car. He is evidently happy with the engine and mechanical components of his van.
He uses it as a commercial vehicle. Mostly, he drives on the Delhi-Jaipur highway which explains why there are not all that many problems with the mechanicals. He also confirms that he has replaced the clutch and timing belt several times. Also, the battery has been changed 4-5 times too. Apart from that, all the components are still in stock configuration, which is quite unbelievable. Note that it runs on CNG and has the last-gen engine which used to power the initial models of the Zen. All in all, he is mighty satisfied and impressed by his vehicle. He urges everyone to recognise and appreciate the engines of Maruti cars.

Things He Doesn’t Like
While the list of positives is almost unending, there are a few things which bother the owner. Firstly, he is not satisfied with the service staff and experience. That is why he started going to the aftermarket for servicing. Secondly, he also observes that there are no safety features on this car. People are getting more and more conscious about safety equipment in modern cars. He highlights that it would be nice if Maruti could update it with some handy safety features. Finally, he mentions that there is a lot of body roll in the car. When a car passes from its side at high speed, he feels his car move. However, that could be attributed to the fact that it has a tall-boy stance. That makes it slightly less stable. But that is the case with almost all such vans.
