There's an article in today's newspaper by the MD of Maruti saying that in order to keep thier market share, they would place Maruti 800 against the Rs.1 lac car of Tata and the other small cars coming up in this segment.

Presently M800 is priced at Rs.1.92 lac (base version), and, in order to compete with Tata's Rs.1 lac car, it is likely to be priced 40/50K less.  As such, Tata's Rs.1 lac car would be the base model without AC & Power Steering (PS).  The one with AC, PS & other features are likely to be priced up to Rs.1.80 lac (depending upon the features).

 

That will be a great move by maruti if done like what they say , greta info Pankaj , also ur new Maruti 800 Customers should Be aware and not buy a 800 now , they should wait

Cheers,

Sri

As such, since launch of Alto, sale of M800 has come down substantially.  Alto is basically an improved version of M800.

In fact, it registered as highest selling car just before Diwali (ahead of Indica).

i feel the 800 shoud be redisgned and also desinged so that it meets the new safety norms , also we all are bored with the sme old 800 styling from past 20 years now , so a good exterior change and price slash of 30k to 800 will surely pull tatas 1 lakh cars customers

Thats a great move by the Maruti , by the way even the Bajajs are planning to launch a small car name LITE next year or so and it will be priced around or above 1.5 lakhs

Actually, as per the statement issued in media, Bajaj will be launching the car (small) in 2-4 years' time.
