Maruti A Star
The New Suzuki Alto will be making its debut at the Paris Motor Show in October. It will be sold in India as the A-Star and the current Alto will be sold along side it. It does look a bit disappointing when we compare it to the A-Star Concept at the Auto Expo. Maruti A Star comes equipped with the next generation KB-series petrol engine. The 998 cc K10B gasoline engine promises to deliver a power of 67 PS @ 6200 rpm, with a peak torque of 90 Nm @ 3500 rpm. Optimized combustion of the fuel facilitates better efficiency of the vehicle. The compact car promises to offer a mileage of 19.59 kmpl. It also boasts of state-of-the-art engineering technology, which combines performance and safety. The low center of gravity and wide track width of Maruti A- Star facilitates excellent stability and good road handling.
