Maruti Suzuki has released clear
pictures of soon to be launched small car Alto800. The car will be launched on
17th of October and will replace the highly successful Maruti 800 and Alto.
Maruti last week released a teaser website which received over 1 lakh hits in
just 7 days.
As seen from the picture, the
car is extremely different from the Maruti 800 and Alto. Maruti has tried to
give the new Alto800 fresh looks by incorporating (can read copy) designs of
successful car from other makers in recent times. The front resembles that of the
Figo and the side and rear you can have the tinge of i20 in it.
We have been telling from our
earlier post that Maruti could have done a better job. A good design is what
the car needed as it backed everything from Maruti right from technology to
service back up. Maruti is banking big on the Alto800 and wants to repeat the
success story of 800 and Alto. But we feel, the automotive industry has changed
and in spite of selling in good numbers, Maruti might not live up to its
expectations with Alto800. Well.... let’s wait and watch.
The new Maruti Alto800 will be
available in two fuel options – Petrol and CNG and will come in 7 colour
shades. The car will be priced around Rs. 2 lakh (ex-showroom).
