Does 2009 Maruti Alto LX comes equipped with a power steering?
18 April 2025 04:45
The 2009 Maruti Alto LX does not come equipped with power steering as a standard feature. However, it is possible to install a power steering kit as an aftermarket modification, but this would not be a factory-installed option[3).
Is the Alto K10 popular in India because of brand loyalty or real worth for the money?
30 December 2024 07:09
I think it's a bit of both. People come in the door because of the brand name, but they keep coming back because of what the car is worth. Without the cars delivering, Maruti wouldn't have maintained that loyalty.
Is the Alto K10 the 'mountain goat' of Indian roads?
30 December 2024 07:09
It’s good, but we’re not going to get ahead of ourselves. In most cases, any decent driver can make it through mountain roads in most cars. In such a small car, you are closer to the edge, and it just feels more dramatic.
Is the Alto K10 good enough to leave stock or is it worth it to try and modify it for better performance?
30 December 2024 07:09
Modding is cool, just remember it’s still an Alto. You should be focused on upgrading things like suspension and brakes. Trying to squeeze out a few extra horsepower will make a bigger difference in real world driving than that.
Is the Alto K10 a good car for new drivers?
30 December 2024 07:09
Absolutely not. All the safety features new drivers can get, they need. These days the basic kit of the K10 just doesn't cut it. You'll spend a little more, but get something with better crash protection and stability control.
Does the Alto K10's basic features make up for its fuel efficiency as compared to rivals?
30 December 2024 07:09
That depends on what’s important to you. But if all you need is a city runabout, you won't find a more efficient vehicle than the K10. However, for longer trips you might miss out on some of those extra features.
Is it cool to modify an Alto to sportier looks or is it just ridiculous?
30 December 2024 06:57
It's awesome! Why shouldn’t cheap cars also look cool? My modded Alto gets more heads turn than some luxury cars.
Is the Alto's fuel efficiency still its biggest selling point or are people too stuck in the past?
30 December 2024 06:57
The Alto is still a big selling point for budget conscious buyers with its mileage. Not everyone can afford to put other features ahead.
Are new drivers being set up for failure when they learn to drive in an Alto setting, only to switch to bigger cars?
30 December 2024 06:57
It makes sense to start out with an Alto. You’re better off learning the rules of the road in a forgiving car than a powerful one.
People say the Maruti Alto is a reliable car. Is it really?
30 December 2024 06:57
It's not just that something has to not break down. But I wouldn't call the Alto reliable for all conditions because it feels unsafe at high speeds.
Is the Alto's small size unsafe or is it in fact an advantage in Indian traffic?
30 December 2024 06:57
Small size is a lifesaver in the city traffic. I can shimmy into places that SUVs can only wish they could get their fat asses into.
