Maruti Cervo

The Indian version of this car will derive power from the refurbished FD8 petrol powerplant which is known for its fuel efficiency. Reportedly, the Maruti Cervo would differ from Suzuki Cervo on a lot of levels from both features and specifications point of view. This would lead to a difference in the prices that were earlier speculated to fall under the range of Maruti Alto’s price. Some time back, MSI had announced that the company is replacing the highly-acclaimed small car Maruti 800 which had literally put the Indian population on four wheels. The said Maruti Cervo is the expected replacement of the legendary Maruti 800 which would be positioned below Maruti Alto as its younger sibling.

The Indian version of Cervo will be housed with a lot of features like AC with vents, body colored door handles and bumpers; high-level security features like ABS and airbags would also be made available.
