Suzuki A-star to replace the Alto


Things have become a lot more clear now.The a-star is going to replace the existing alto which has so far been one of the most successfull models for maruti in India.However its well past its sell by date now and Maruti are doing well to replace the alto with the newer a-star.

The a-star would be powered by a 1000cc petrol engine,which should be one of latest from the suzuki stables as the car would be sold alongside the swift and the sx4 in the global market.Nissan to plan to sell the same car with its badge in some markets.

The car meets most european emission norms.Hopefully maruti price this new car as well as they have done with their existing cars for if they do so we certainly have a winner.


The a-star will debut at the Paris motor show in october. The A-star concept was one of the best looking cars at the auto show in 2008 sadly the production version is nowhere near that,what where the designers even thinking.
