Good car at this price

Good car at this price and the mileage is good and affordable for a middle-class family, love this car very very nice and beautiful colors in collaboration with a beautiful design and a beautiful feeling of driving.

MY LUV ALTO

The Legendary Alto is a damn good car. My father first bought an Alto lxi model of maroon colour and it literally ran till 2½ lakh kms nearly but the car met with an accident. After that my father again bought an alto 800 petrol manual which is still there it's been 4½ years nearly to the car and it ran 1 lakh kms+ and still counting. The car I think its value for money and its awesome.. Nearly 8-10 yrs I spent my life with THE Legendary Alto. ??I luv my present Alto lyk hell. Now m 18 yrs old and I learnt driving from Alto only. So its very much close to my heart... ????

Hyundai Grand i10 Nios: Service Report

By Jay Shah28 Mar 2024

It has been nearly six months since the zippy Hyundai Grand i10 Nios joined CarWale's long-term fleet. Its agility in city traffic has been a constant delight, making commutes and errand runs a breeze. With the odometer ticking past the 13,000km mark, it was time for its scheduled service visit to the Hyundai service center.

Change of guard

By Vikrant Singh13 Oct 2012

The old Alto is out and it is being replaced by a slightly modern looking, but more spacious and fuel efficient version. So how much better is it?
