New Wagon R with K-Series, Review on Pg. 12!

[jalex]

But all other cars, like Polo, will also have 3-pot engines are BS-4 compliant.

But the 800cc engine in the maruti stable is very old and has been doing the rounds for almost three decades. Its almost impossible to demand more from it.

WagonR already has some updated cersion in other country. Is it what coming here?

Am sure the one posted by RSM wont be making its way here!! Even if it does it will not come with those interiors , the dash and door trims are looking excellent in that picture!! We cannot expect that from Maruti here in India!!

It probably will be the 1.0 litre K-series for the Alto. But it is to be expected next month,Thats cause the euro 4 will come into force and I dont think that the 0.8 litre 3 pot engine can be made to be euro 4 compliant nor will it be that easy to do so.. So it has to be in April. What do you think?

Just thinking out loud here, but the engineers in Maruti are quite capable of achieving that. The engine serving the EECO is basically a modified G Series, and that was first seen (the G Series) in the Esteem and the Zen. This is obviously BSIV compliant.
So we can wait and see if there are any surprises in store for the F Series!!
But there are also the statements floating around from MSIL that they will be shifting over completely to the K series engine ... they have already done quite a bit on that front.
Well, April is not far way!!

Spy pictures of new Wagon R! Spotted by SidIndica of ********. Looks worse than i thought it would be
Also, the raised dashboard would mean that the Wagon R will not be that easy to drive anymore.

It looks good from the side and rear,,they messed up the front. It does not match with the sharp styling done to the rest of the car.

Hmmm actually i like this design more than the current WagonR!! But the raised dashboard is not looking good!! Interiors looking better too!!

 

[amaan1994]

The side profile looks good, and the rear isn't too bad either. Interior quality seems good in these pictures as well, though we will have to see it in person. But i believe MSIL have messed up the front. It could have looked way better. The front-end doesn't exactly gel well with the edgy and modern look of the rest of the car.

 

[RSM]

Interiors looks much better than existing one, but exterior i am not sure if its better or became worse than existing wagon-r.

 

[amaan1994]

Interiors were anyway due for a change, as they looked flimsy and decades old. They have also messed up with the Wagon R's key strengths, its easy-to-drive nature and all-round visibility by raising the height of the dashboard and shrinking the windows. These points were crucial for many people, who favored the earlier Wagon R for its user-friendliness.

This entry has been posted on september, 2008. But i just saw it today. This new Wagon-R looks much better than current version, more upmarket. Hope we get it here.

This was what they should have done.
