The 2022 Maruti Suzuki Alto K10 has been launched in India, with prices ranging from ₹3.99 lakh to ₹5.84 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). The K10 moniker has returned to the Alto after more than two years; the previous K10 was discontinued with the transition to BS6 emission norms. The third-gen Alto K10 is larger than its predecessor and gets a completely new exterior and interior with 1.0-litre petrol engine.
Taking styling cues from the current Celerio, the Alto K10 is now based on Maruti’s Heartect platform thus sufficiently growing in size as well. It measures 3,530mm in length, 1,490mm in width and 1,520mm in height, the new Alto K10 is 85mm longer and 45mm taller than the Alto 800. The wheelbase, at 2,380mm, has also grown by 20mm. The width, however, remains the same as the Alto 800.
The hatchback gets wide sweptback halogen headlamps and a large hexagonal grille with a mesh-pattern air intake. Meanwhile, the front bumper features a few angular creases at the sides and a contrasting black trim element at the front, although there are no provisions for fog lamps or LED DRLs.
