Exterior Amazing stylish look from frontside. rear lookis also ok.
Interior No change, same as 800cc alto.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is more powerful, of course with ac also. fuel economy is also good. gear box is awesome & gives the feeling of a luxurious car.
Ride Quality & Handling Movement is swift, smooth & balanced. handling is easy. power steering is marvellous.
Final Words Alto k10 vxi is a car for first time buyer, middle class person with maximum budget of 3.5 lakhs, person who want economical drive, family of 3 adults & 2 minors, people who dont want showoff but want only convenience in life. Alto is purely an car for urban life. please do not try to compare it with 8-10 lakh sedan.
Areas of improvement If a little leg room & height can be provided.(althogh i know its not possible coz providing this could affect the sale of wagon r).
new look, powerful engine,power window, excellent fuel economy.lesser space

The car is value for money for ones who want to be economical. I bought the car when fuel econ and low price was my criteria. A very good choice in this segment.
Although in 2004 we did not have the option of the Indica Xeta which is a more spacious vehicle and better to drive.
Styling and comfort scores zero but on maintenance and economy it scores the highest in the segment. Bet no other car can dare to beat the numbers.
Pick-up drops while the AC is on which I later got fitted from Maruti. Not a very stable car at speeds above 110 kmph although I dared till 134 kmph on the delhi chandigarh highway. Fuel econ is 20 with AC on highway if driven at 70-80 kmph and in Mumbai city drive it is 12 with AC.
Finally it is a great car to start off with and upgrade to a premium hatch or a sedan. Its been more than 2 years now and I have decided not to sell it off being my first love.
Good Fuel Econ, Small car easy city driveHorrible interiors totally cramped, no legroom in rear seat. Bad plastic interiorsExterior/Styles

I had to buy a car for my Mom, so thought of giving a try to this option -Alto-Lets go!.. This car is just good for milege, and for single driver only. In terms of power a brand new alto is even worse than a old-carborettor fitted (non-mpfi) engine Maruti-800.
Over the past years i have had 5 cars, from Fiat, Maruti 800, Wagon-R, Santro to Esteem. As said this is only an entry level car, People who have been driving powerful cars of 1.1 engines , will not find this car confortable, and truely speaking if u can buy Alto for 3.1Lakh , then stretchng for another 60k is a better option and getting on a 1.1L engine car.

Exterior This car is definitely a great improvement over the old Alto. The front side looks more like a sedan than a hatchback. The rear part is, however, a let down with unimaginative design. Maruti should have designed the rear with a lil more agggression.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Same old dashboard with new steering and seating for a change.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox I beleive that the K series engine is the biggest draw in this car. Driving this engine gives a sense of power unlike the old Alto which was used to dragging. As mine is a new car the average as per my estimates is in the range of 12-13 km/l. but it will hopefully improve with servicing and usage. The gearbox although much improved feels a lil vague. .it's a feeling only I got as my friends thought it to be fine. The steering lacks power at high speeds. could be due to the fact that many say it is 'under tyred'..but I am not sure as I am not an expert.
Ride Quality & Handling Ride is smooth with this car handling decent undulations with ease. At this price range one couldnt expect any better. comparing it with swift or any other high range model would be unjustifiable. It is great city car. however, on the highways surrounded by speeding trucks, MUVs and SUVs, one could feel a lil bit unsafe.
However, keeping aside every sore point, it is undoubtedly one of the finest cars to have come out of the Maruti stable. For a first time buyer like me it is definitely a great buy!
