Suzuki has unveiled a performance-focussed variant of the Alto, dubbed the Alto Works. The car will be sold exclusively in Japan.
 
The Alto Works is powered by a turbocharged three-cylinder 660cc petrol engine that develops 63.12bhp and 10.23kgm of torque. The engine has been tuned to further enhance the driving experience and now offers a better throttle response than before. Additionally, the car gets a modified steering, is equipped with shocks from KYB and gets 15-inch gloss black wheels. 
 
The car weighs between 670-740kg, depending on the transmission – a five-speed manual or a five-speed automatic – and FWD or AWD configurations. 
 
The Alto Works is available in four colours – silver, white, black, and red. All models include red front brake callipers. The interior of the car features genuine Recaro racing seats, a boost gauge, red stitching and steel pedals, available on all models.
