After a hiatus of over two and a half years, the Maruti Suzuki Alto K10 makes a grand return to the Indian market. Known for its role as a budget-friendly hatchback, the Alto K10 has been a pivotal player in Maruti's portfolio, and with over 43 lakh units sold in India, it continues to be a go-to car for first-time buyers and budget-conscious consumers. The latest generation offers a more powerful K10C engine, improved design, and modern features, making it a competitive choice in the entry-level hatchback segment​.

2022 Alto K10 adopts a brand-new design that is a significant departure from its previous generation. Gone is the boxy shape, replaced by a more curvaceous body that resembles the Maruti Suzuki Celerio.

Design ElementDetails
Front FasciaNew honeycomb pattern grille with an all-black look, paired with large, round headlamps
Side ProfileCurvier and more modern, with 13-inch wheels standard on all variants
Rear StylingSleek rear combination taillamps and a clean design, enhancing the overall look
Color Options6 colors, including new shades like Sizzling Red, Earth Gold, and Speedy Blue
DimensionsLength: 3530 mm, Width: 1490 mm, Height: 1520 mm, Wheelbase: 2380 mm

The Alto K10 is larger and more stylish than the Alto 800, with an improved stance and refined design elements. The new honeycomb grille and attractive headlamps bring a modern touch, but the lack of DRLs is a notable miss. The black ORVMs on higher trims could have benefitted from body-colored treatment for a more premium look​.

 

Alto K10 Design

The Alto K10 is powered by the new K10C 1.0-liter petrol engine, offering better fuel efficiency and a more refined driving experience. This 3-cylinder, dual-jet, dual-VVT motor replaces the older K10B engine and delivers solid performance for city driving.

Engine SpecsDetails
Engine998 cc, 3-cylinder K10C engine with dual VVT
Power66 bhp @ 5500 rpm
Torque89 Nm @ 3500 rpm
Transmission5-speed manual or AGS (Automated Manual Transmission)
Fuel Efficiency24.90 km/l (AGS), 24.39 km/l (manual)

The engine delivers a 66 bhp power output and 89 Nm of torque, which feels adequate for a lightweight car like the Alto K10. The manual transmission offers quick gear shifts and a peppier response, while the AGS gearbox provides a more relaxed driving experience, especially in urban settings.

 

Alto K10 Performance

Alto K10 offers decent ride quality, especially for city commutes. The suspension setup is slightly stiffer, making it feel bumpy on rough roads, but smooth on well-paved surfaces.

Riding AspectDetails
Suspension SetupSlightly stiff, resulting in bumpy rides on uneven roads
Turning Radius4.50 meters, making it highly maneuverable in city traffic
Ground Clearance134 mm, adequate for most city roads but requires caution on uneven surfaces

At higher speeds, the car’s stiffer suspension makes bumps and undulations more pronounced, but it handles well at regular city speeds. The 4.50-meter turning radius makes it an agile car, perfect for navigating through congested urban areas

For a small car, the Alto K10 offers a surprisingly spacious and ergonomic cabin. The seats are comfortable, and the higher driving position ensures a clear view of the road ahead.

Comfort FeatureDetails
SeatingHigher seating position, comfortable rear seats with decent legroom
Infotainment7-inch SmartPlay Studio infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
Storage & ConveniencePlenty of storage options between the seats and in door pockets

The SmartPlay Studio system, available only in the VXi+ trim, enhances the overall driving experience. The rear passengers enjoy decent legroom and headroom, although squeezing in three adults might feel a bit tight. Unfortunately, features like power windows and adjustable headrests are missing on lower trim.

 

Alto K10 Interior

Pros

  • Alto K10 is powered by a new 998 cc K10C engine, offering 66 bhp and 89 Nm of torque, which delivers peppy performance for city driving.
  • It boasts excellent fuel efficiency, with a claimed mileage of 24.90 kmpl for the AGS variant, making it one of the most economical cars in its segment.
  • Updated design, with a honeycomb grille and a more modern look, along with a 7-inch SmartPlay Studio infotainment system with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, enhances the overall appeal.

Cons

  • The suspension feels a bit stiff at higher speeds, and you can feel bumps and undulations more prominently on rough roads.
  • Basic features like power windows, power steering, and air conditioning are missing in the lower trims, making them feel under-equipped.
  • With a ground clearance of just 134 mm, you need to be careful when driving over larger speed bumps or rough terrain, which can limit its usability in certain conditions.

Verdict

2022 Maruti Suzuki Alto K10 is a significant improvement over its predecessor, offering better design, tech features, and fuel efficiency. While some of the lower variants lack essential features, the higher trims provide good value for money. Its compact size, efficient engine, and affordability make it a solid choice for first-time car buyers or those seeking a reliable budget car for daily commuting.
