Maruti Suzuki has updated the S-Presso with the K10C engine, which first debuted on the new Celerio and comes with new fuel saving technology. Prices for the S-Presso now start at ₹4.25 lakh and goes up to ₹5.99 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) for the top-spec automatic variant. Along with the new engine, the S-Presso also gets more equipment and standard safety features like ESP for the automatic variants.
Maruti has been updating its entire line-up with engines equipped with DualJet technology and dual Variable Valve Timing, which gives it better fuel efficiency and lower tail-pipe emissions. Following the S-Presso, the Alto remains the only model yet to receive this new technology among Maruti’s Arena line-up, and that is likely to happen with the next-gen model set to debut next month.
The new K10C engine in the S-Presso produces 67hp and 89Nm of peak torque, which is down by 1hp and 1Nm respectively over the outgoing model. The engine continues to come mated to either a 5-speed manual or AMT gearbox.
