Maruti Suzuki is working on the next-generation Alto for the Indian car market. As a new R&D centre is being set-up in India.
The design and majority of the testing for the new Alto will happen in India and Japan.
The new Alto should be launched in 2018, and it will also get the downsized engines. Suzuki is downsizing its engines and it had recently introduced the 1.0-litre BoosterJet .
The new Alto will be powered by the 796cc petrol engine (which has been powering the Maruti 800, Alto and even the Omni) and the second engine will be the 658cc engine, which is likely to be turbocharged.
Expect the 800 cc diesel to be part of the powertrain varaints.
India will be the major maufacturing house where products will be exported to Europe. The YRA and the iM 4 are products to be built in India and exported to Eu.
