The Maruti Alto K10 2025 is the successor of the popular Maruti 800 and is one of India’s much loved small cars. Famous for its small package size, great mileage, and a price tag that provides good value for money, the better-equipped new Alto K10 from Maruti has got itself more marketability for all the city slickers, first timers and economy-conscious family buyers to sit up and take note of.
Well, let’s dive in to find out why this small hatchback is still the king of the entry-level segment here in 2025.
Modern Impact with Function in Mind
The new-look front-end features a hatchet-style design with a large honeycomb grille, smart halogen headlamps, and stylishly sculpted bumper to enhance its premium appeal. It’s the perfect size for tight city streets – it’s compact, and the tall-boy design means you sit up higher with better visibility.
The Alto K10 is a head turner, for its contemporary curves and styling, the Alto was a game changer as there was hardly any car in this segment that looked remotely ‘good’. It gets a new set of colour choices and dual tone themes to further add to the youth vibe.
Interior Comfort and Technology
The interior, however, is basic but comfortable. The dash is uncluttered and material quality has clearly advanced with the years. Some of the prominent interior features are:
- 7-inch touchscreen infotainment with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay
- Digital instrumental cluster with fuel efficiency and distance-to-empty indicator
- Steering mounted controls (higher trims only)
- Air conditioning with heater
- Power windows and power locks
- Headrests in front seats and cloth upholstery
Although small car, the Alto K10 has good head room and leg room for four adults. Boot space isn’t too much of a worry with the 214-litre boot that can carry shoppers for the day or a short trip.
Engine, Transmission and Mileage
The Alto K10 is a well proven litre unit under the hood of the car. It delivers:
- 67 bhp of power and 89 Nm of torque
- Comes with 5 speed manual and 5 speed AMT (automated manual transmission).
- Great fuel economy-24.4 for manual, 24.9 for AMT
- Factory-fitted CNG trim producing 57 PS and fuel efficiency of nearly 34 km/kg
