Maruti Suzuki Alto

Maruti Suzuki Alto now gets fresh set of styling and feature upgrades. The hatchback is available in three variants with a new BSVI compliant engine and new set of standard safety features. Maruti Suzuki Alto is available in six colour options to choose from - Uptown Red, Superior White, Silky Silver, Granite Grey, Mojito Green, and Cerulean Blue.

Exterior

The new Alto gets a new grille up front, a revised headlamp and redesigned bumpers. The company has also tweaked the side fender to give it a fresh look. The company claims that the new model complies with the upcoming crash and pedestrian safety regulation. Moreover, Maruti Suzuki claims that the new Alto meets the ‘End of Life Vehicles’ (ELV) obligations, which means that the vehicle is now 95 per cent recoverable and 85 per cent recyclable.

Interior

The cabin gets dual tone finish with new air-con ducts and a stylish speedometer. The new front and rear bottle holders also add practicality to the updated interiors. Moreover, the new Alto gets the Smart Play Dock with Bluetooth connectivity. This Smart Play Dock transforms the phone into a touch interface to access calls, music, navigation and more. The keyless entry is also part of the update.

Engine

Under the hood is the same 796cc petrol engine producing 48bhp and 69Nm. But now this engine is BS-VI compliant owing to the upgraded hardware and software along with reworked exhaust system. The claimed fuel efficiency of the new Alto is 22.05kmpl. Standard safety features now include - reverse parking sensor, driver airbag, speed alert system and seat belt reminder for both driver and the co-driver, and ABS with EBD.
