Probably a facelift or probably not, but what’s more important is that the car is getting 1 Liter K-Series!

I hate the non-adjust. seats on the Eeco and the new alto. They don't look too bad on the Santro, but the Maruti design has destroyed the seats of 2 capable products.

A small car with a powerful K-series? I agree with Shynish, a standard sport mini!!

Facelift confirmed.
When contacted, Maruti Suzuki India Chairman R C Bhargava said, "Alto needs a face-lift. It has been there for quite a while."
What will you do with a hot hatch that offers no ABS?

Honestly, I don't like the A-Star design at all. I presume, the international models - Suzuki ALTO and Nissan Pixo - offers ABS & Airbag in this one.

Even the A-Star top model offers 2 Airbags and ABS in India.
The international models get 4 Airbags.

Most developed countries has their safety norms. ABS and Airbag are considered minimum standard safety devices in those countries. Car manufacturers can't sell cars without it, so i think they are provided there.

With launch of ALTO with 1L K series engine I think Maurti is creating a big competitor for its already struggling A Star or may be MS is creating way for Carvo. If they price it reasonably I think its a big success.

I would to see an Alto with all the new features as told by Akash but in that case pricing may directly conflict with the new blue eyed boy!
