However,R C Bhargava, Chairman Maruti Suzuki India said that Maruti Alto soon needs a face-lift , as the car has been there for quite some time now. He stepped down to comment on the exact engine details of the vehicle.
Maruti Alto recently got a newer look and feel as it was made BS IV complaint on the existing 800cc F-Series engine. Maruti had however maintained he low-cost of Alto during this transformation. This time the cost is bound to increase as a bigger engine would certainly mean higher price. Currently Alto is shelved at Rs 2.29 lakh and Rs 2.8 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). The price would certainly increase by a few thousands.
