Suzuki Motor Company has unveiled the Alto (A-Star) at the ongoing Paris Motor Show. Designed with considerable input from Suzuki’s Indian R&D center, the Alto (A-Star) will be built exclusively in India for the world market as well for domestic consumption. The car will be launched in India by the end of October.
The new Alto (A-Star) stands 3550mm long, 1600mm wide, 1470mm high with a wheelbase of 2360mm. The cheeky overall styling and the cute front is expected to go down well with the buyers here in India and outside.
The Alto (A-Star) will also debut the ‘K’ series engines from Suzuki which is considered a master of smaller internal combustion engines. The 1000cc engine in the Alto (A-Star) develops a very healthy 68 ps @ 6000 rpm and a maximum 90 nm of torque @ 4800 rpm. The engine is highly fuel efficient too with a combined fuel consumption figure of 22 kmpl and is Euro 5 compliant already. A co-efficient of drag of just .30 also helps the top speed which is a decent 155 kmph and the overall efficiency.
