The 90s Status Symbol We All Wanted | The 2005 Maruti Esteem G13B | When Cars had a Soul EP5 |

Is the Maruti Suzuki Esteem still relevant in a world dominated by modern, soulless sedans? Today, we are getting behind the wheel of one of the most iconic 90s status symbols in India i.e the classic Maruti Suzuki Esteem. With its low-slung aerodynamic styling, the legendary 1.3L G13B all-aluminum engine, and a ridiculously lightweight chassis, this isn't just your standard family commuter. It’s an absolute Rally Legend. In this review, we break down why its naturally aspirated throttle response absolutely destroys modern turbocharged cars in pure driving feel, and whether those old-school analog 90s interior features hold up today. If you want massive nostalgia and a raw, tuner-friendly driving experience without the heavy electronic aids of a modern car, this might be the ultimate classic sedan to buy. 👇 Drop a comment: Would you take this Maruti Esteem over a classic Honda City or a modern compact sedan?
