Sleek New Design That Stands Out
The 2025 Alto K10 gets a refreshed exterior with subtle yet impactful changes. The front fascia now features a bolder honeycomb grille, a redesigned bumper, and body-colored door mirrors that give it a more premium look compared to its predecessor. The side profile retains its compact dimensions (perfect for squeezing through tight city streets), while new wheel caps add a touch of sophistication. Inside, the cabin welcomes you with a modern dual-tone dashboard, improved seat fabrics, and better-quality plastics that elevate the overall feel. Despite being one of the most affordable cars in India, the Alto K10 doesn’t cut corners on aesthetics.
Feature-Packed for Its Price
Maruti in a very surprising manner has packed Alto K10 2025 with tech for such a car segment. Biggest draw is 7-inch SmartPlay Pro touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay for easy music and navigation streaming. Other key features are offered by:
- Steering-mounted controls for added convenience
- Digital speedometer with a small trip computer
- Front power windows and central locking (in higher variants)
- Rear parking sensors (a big help in crowded areas)
While it’s still a no-frills car compared to premium hatchbacks, the Alto K10 2025 offers just enough tech to keep daily drives comfortable and connected.
Performance That Won’t Disappoint
Under the hood, Alto K10 stays true to its basic 1.0-litre K10C petrol engine by Maruti and produces 67 bhp of power, with a torque figure to match at an even 89 kgm. Far from being a turbine, it’s snappy enough for city manners and light steering makes it simple to drive in traffic too. 5-Speed Manual Transmission with a choice of AGS (Auto Gear Shift) is available for the convenience of the buyers.
The Alto K10 turns out to be pretty fuel efficient — 24.39 km/l manual and 24.90 km/l for the AGS for stens of a litre, it is one of most fuel efficient petrol car in india from the 2010. If you have the aim of saving on expenses for running these are cars to beat.
Safety? Yes, It’s Got the Basics Covered
Given its budget-friendly nature, the Alto K10 2025 doesn’t come with ADAS or six airbags, but it does include:
- Dual front airbags (standard across all variants)
- ABS with EBD (Anti-lock Braking System)
- Rear parking sensors (in top variants)
- High-speed alert system (reminds you to slow down)
While it’s no Tata Punch or Hyundai i20 in terms of safety, it meets the essential safety standards for city commuting.
