Maruti Suzuki Alto K10 Xtra Edition, with stylish looks, revealed
Maruti Suzuki has revealed the special Xtra Edition of its most popular hatchback, the Alto K10. The car receives cosmetic updates over the regular model, both on the outside and inside. The four-wheeler features contrast-colored Paprika Orange highlights on the skid plates, ORVMs, and roof-mounted spoiler to differentiate it from the standard K10. It draws power from a 1.0-liter, K-series engine.
Why does this story matter?
The Alto is the highest-selling car for Maruti Suzuki in India. The brand has managed to sell over 43 lakh units of the popular hatchback since its arrival in 2000. The homegrown carmaker updated the K10 variant last year with quirky styling and a capable DualJet K-series petrol engine. The company has now unveiled the special Xtra Edition model to make it more appealing.
