BIG on style

The Esteem has always been a sight to behold. With a muscular stance, a raised nose line and an aerodynamic shape, it gives style a whole new definition. The plush upholstery, brushed silver interiors and an angular rear give the Esteem the looks to die for.

BIG on savings

According to studies, the Esteem comes out trumps on mileage and running costs. The table below shows the % mileage advantage Esteem enjoys over other cars. So why think small, take the big step now.

	Mileage km/l	Esteem Advantage
Esteem	16.7
Accent	13.8	21%
Indigo (petrol)	13.6	23%
Ikon	14.4	16%

BIG on power

State-of-the-art Japanese technology makes the Esteem a driver's dream. An acceleration of 0-100kmph in 11.49 sec makes it first off the starting block. The highest power to weight ratio of 97.7bhp per ton in its class and a high torque of 110Nm@4500rpm ensure it packs a mean punch. A 1300cc All Aluminum Engine (ACE) with 4 valves per cylinder combined with an MMPFI, 16 valves, 32 bit Electronic Control Module (ECM) delivers awesome power. Add the new generation tubeless tyres and you are assured of a performance that is simply unmatched.

BIG on space

With its spacious, thoughtfully designed interiors the Esteem is a pleasure for your senses. The ergonomically designed controls and low fatigue seats promise utmost comfort. The gauges are illuminated white and positioned for easy viewing while the super cool air-conditioning keeps you refreshed to the core. Go ahead and pamper yourself.

BIG on safety

The Esteem is designed like a fortress. Vacuum booster assisted brakes ensure it comes to a stop before it's too late. A unique headlamp leveling device enhances visibility and a collapsible steering column absorbs impact in case of frontal collision. A rugged monocoque chassis with crumple zones and side impact beams, makes Esteem the safest place on or off the road. So drive ahead and leave your worries behind.
