    Model : Alto 800

    Since its launch, the new Maruti Suzuki Alto 800 has been – much like the best-seller it’s replacing – rather well received. Although Maruti’s credentials when it comes to making low-cost small cars are impressive, it is not an easy task to replace an all-time best-seller. While the changes have to be substantial, they have to be cost-effective as well. And the carmaker has seemingly done its job well.

    The car looks and feels significantly different from the old Alto and it’s priced extremely well too. The base Alto 800 costs Rs 2.44 lakh and the most expensive Alto 800 LXi rings the register at Rs 2.99 lakh. So, does it have what it takes to carry on its extremely successful family tradition?
