6 airbags
NCAP 2★

The Alto K10 remains India's most accessible new car, and Maruti has smartly loaded it with 6 airbags and a solid safety structure—a genuine differentiator at this price. Real-world efficiency of 33.4 kmpl makes it genuinely economical to own, though the 68 bhp engine feels modest and tech features are virtually absent.

Stands out

  • 6 airbags standard across variants—exceptional safety kit at ₹3.7 lakh
  • 33.4 kmpl ARAI efficiency keeps running costs genuinely low
  • Simple, proven reliability with strong Maruti service network
  • Starts at ₹3.7 lakh—most affordable new car entry point
  • 5-seat layout and 214L boot handle daily family duties

!Gives us pause

  • 68 bhp engine feels underpowered for highway driving comfort
  • Zero in-car tech—no touchscreen, smartphone integration, or driver aids
  • 2-star NCAP rating reflects basic safety structure despite airbag count
  • No ventilated seats or sunroof even on higher trims
  • Cramped interior becomes apparent on long journeys
