Maruti Suzuki has launched a new top of the line Alto 800 Vxi+ priced at Rs 3, 80,209 lakhs (ex showroom prices). The 2020 Alto800 portfolio has now been enhanced with the fully loaded variant.
Mr. Shashank Srivastava, Executive Director (Marketing & Sales), Maruti Suzuki India Limited said, “At Maruti Suzuki, We have always strived to delight the first time car buyers with aspirational and modern features. In fact, 38-lakh strong Alto customers are a testament to people appreciating the timely upgrades and newness in the brand. The new Alto VXI+ with the Smart play Studio is tailor-made to offer a unique technology-driven experience to our customers. Alto VXI+ also carries forward the legacy of the Alto which is India’s best-selling car for 15 consecutive years. We thank our customers for their continued faith and trust. “
A big addition to the 2020 Alto 800 Vxi+ is the new 7.0-inch touchscreen infortainment system. The touchscreen system in question is the Smartplay Studio system that comes with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The new age infortainment is connected and is loaded with features that enhance the customer’s driving experience. What’s interesting however that is other than the addition of the new touchscreen infortainment system, the rest of the car remains unchanged.
