Maruti Alto Standard (Petrol)

Drive to your office in style in the Maruti Alto - India's most preferred car manufacturer. A Maruti car in India is an ideal family as well as personal choice any time. Spend a few minutes to read the New Maruti Alto Standard (Petrol) Review here.

The Maruti Alto has overtaken the Maruti 800 as the most popular car in the Indian Market. The Alto comes with great looks and a superior feel, yet with the economy and easiness of the Maruti 800.

Essentially the same engine parameters as the Maruti 800, it has a 0.8L 12V FC engine with MPFI technology. The 32 bit microprocessor controlled engine is capable of delivering a goodly 47 PS at 6200 rpm and a maximum torque of 62 NM @ 3000 rpm.

With a 5 speed manual gear and a seating capability of five people, it offers great driving in city conditions. What's more, the Alto is the family's outing car too. Not to forget shopping jaunts with grandparents and children!

The Alto gives a wonderful fuel economy of around 18.3 kmpl on the highway and 13.6 kmpl in city driving conditions thus giving an overall economy of around14.5 kmpl in city driving conditions. Thus it is easy on the pocket of those who want to graduate to owning their first car, or those who want to migrate from the Maruti 800. Maruti claims it to be the most fuel efficient car in the A+ segment.

The Alto is high on safety features too such as side impact door beams, rear door Side impact door beams, rear door child safety lock ,Clear lens headlamps ,Rear caps, collapsible steering column, High rigid monocoque frame made of high tensile steel, and front & rear seat belts, and booster assisted brakes.

Maruti Alto is the base level variant presentation from Maruti. It presents with a neat 796cc friction free engine with MPFi fuel system technology. The 32 bit ECM computer delivers superb fuel efficiency making it the most fuel efficient car in its segment.

It presents optimum power and torque, thereby good acceleration and handling in city driving conditions. The power unit is connected to a five speed manual synchromesh gear box meaning thereby smooth gear shifts albeit physically. Also check out additional features like dynamic front grill and bumper, stylish S mark, sparkling tail lamps, sparkling tail lamps,

Good family car

By Prachi Desai, 08/12/2007 15:52:03

I currently own Maruti 800 and want to buy a new car in the same range and more specifically from Maruti family only. And I found Maruti Alto the apt choice for me. I am having a small family of 4 which can easily accommodate in this small and compact car.

It is upgraded version of Maruti 800 having power steering and inbuilt AC. In a congested place like Ahmedabad, it is a good car to opt for in traffic clad areas.

It is a car which suits the person driving it. It gives good fuel mileage in comparison to the base models of Hyundai Santro Zing and Fiat Palio.

It has all the basic features a small car needs to have with the cost which is all affordable.

It can rightly be said to be a good family car.

better than m800

By kishore makhija, 23/11/2007 11:50:40

Maruti alto standard is much better option to maruti 800. so if you are planning to sell your m800, then maruti alto std version is the best option. It is longer than the maruti 800 and also it is more spacious. The engine is similar to m800 so it is giving similar wonderful mileage like m800.

Rest is all the good assurance from Maruti Ugyog. No problems with my Maruti Alto, except after purchasing from dealership, left headlight was not working. It was replaced immediately, as it was fused bulb.
