Maruti Suzuki Alto 800 VXi variant launched in India for Rs 3.13 lakh

Maruti Suzuki has launched the Alto 800 in the VXi trim line for Rs 3.13 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). The Alto 800 VXi (non-metallic paint) is priced Rs 13581 higher than the LXi variant but there is no mention on the official website if there will be a VXi airbag or VXi CNG variant also. 

The Alto 800 VXi gets four power windows and central locking as the additional features over the LXi variant. It is powered by a 796cc petrol mill that produces 48PS, 69Nm of torque and is the standard engine across the range. Power is transmitted to the front wheels via a five-speed manual gearbox.

The Alto 800 was launched amidst much fanfare in October last year and has been a big seller for the Indo-Japanese automaker, racking up over 40, 000 bookings in less than three months after the launch. The Alto 800 is currently being exported from India to various developing markets like Algeria, Egypt, Chile and Nepal.
