Make : Maruti Suzuki

Model : Alto

The redesigned Alto appears more grown up and mature compared to the old car. The reworked face with the angular headlights and bigger grille give it a bold and purposeful look, which was missing in the earlier car. Even the restyled rear with its new tail lights looks modern and gels well with the overall design. Maruti has also increased the length of the car with a longer engine to accommodate the bigger engine. As a result it looks more balanced in profile.

The name might be the same but Maruti’s heavily revised Alto is much better than the car before. Besides the updated looks, the main talking point of this car is its new power plant. Maruti has assaulted the Indian market with its much- coveted K-series engines and the Alto is the latest car to get the engine. It is by far the largest selling car in the country and with this revised version, Maruti has high hopes of maintaining its lead.
