Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Maruti Suzuki Alto K10

- Light on the pocket: Proven reliability and low service cost.
Maruti Suzuki S-Presso
- Spacious cabin: Can seat six-footers back to back comfortably.
- Good city performance: Feels peppy and easy to drive.
- Enough boot space: 270-litres is enough for two cabin-sized overnighter bags and some laptop bags.
- AMT transmission feels smooth as long as you drive in a relaxed manner.
- Super efficient in the city: Has a claimed fuel efficiency of up to 25.30kmpl with the petrol and 32.73km/kg with the CNG.

Maruti Suzuki Alto K10
- Limited space: Not wide enough for three in the rear.
- Misses out on comfort features like powered mirror adjust, rear power windows, reversing camera, driver seat height adjust and steering height adjust.
- Rear seat practicality: No door pockets, cup holders or even seat back pockets.
- Refinement on highways: Engine gets noisy post 3000RPM.
Maruti Suzuki S-Presso

- Design is a hit or miss: SUV stance and cladding feels try-hard.
