New Delhi: Maruti Suzuki's compact A-Star, which will be launched in October, is expected to surpass the earlier strict emission norms announced by the company.
Emission from the A-Star not only complies with the Euro 3 (Bharat-3) norms that are operational in 13 Indian cities, including Delhi, but also geared to meet stringent emission norms that will be implemented across Europe in the coming years.
Here are some pics from the Auto Expo of A-Star.
The A-Star is all about brutality, to me. It is all about looks. Brutal looks. Take the headlamps for instance, they appear to be like an angry elephant’s droopy eyes. How cool is that! The imposing grille with translucent crossmember looks menacing. And then is the airdam which is rounded off by the stylish and sharp fog lamps. How on earth can anyone mistake this car for anything else!
The teardrop roofline, the muscular wheel arches and that eccentric rear view mirror all add to the sense of dynamism. As mad as the front end of the car is, the rear does is equally so. It is simple, without frills but aggressive still. The sharp-edged tail lamps are mounted high up not only to accentuate the bold ‘S’ badge but also to enhance safety by making it highly visible. The rear diffuser has integrated exhaust pipes to complete the picture.
Maruti Suzuki A-star: The newly developed A-star platform is based on the much successful Suzuki’s alto platform. A-star shares the same 2360mm wheelbase of other cars built on Alto platform. A-star will be the first car to be produced solely in India.
Maruti Suzuki A-star: A-star will be priced in the range of Rs3-4lakh and would be out in October (around Diwali). Though this new A-star will replace the Alto in European markets, A-star will co-exist with the Alto and Wagon R in India. It wont be priced below 3 lacks as the rumors might have floated some time back.
