Maruti A-Star Cabriolet Updates

Sunday, 10 November 2024 08:42 AM Although the Maruti A-Star did not meet the new stringent safety standards, Maruti Suzuki has since focused on enhancing safety features in its newer models, like the Dzire. I believe this shift towards safety is a positive step for the company.

Friday, 08 November 2024 03:39 PM Unlike newer Maruti models like the Dzire, which achieved a 5-star Global NCAP rating, the A-Star did not undergo such rigorous safety testing. I think if the A-Star had been tested, it might not have fared as well as the newer models.

Sunday, 21 July 2024 11:27 PM The Maruti A-Star received mixed reviews from users, with some praising its fuel efficiency and others criticizing its performance. I believe the car had its strengths but ultimately couldnt compete with newer models.

Saturday, 01 August 2020 06:35 AM Maruti Suzuki has stopped the production of the Maruti A-Star, marking the end of its run in the Indian market. The last recorded price of the Maruti Suzuki A-Star was around Rs. 3.88 Lakh. I think this move was expected given the declining sales and the companys focus on other models.

Monday, 02 December 2013 07:49 AM Maruti Suzuki witnessed a sharp decline in sales, including the A-Star, with a 10.7% drop in November 2013. This decline was part of a broader trend affecting the companys sales. I think the lack of significant updates and competition from other models contributed to this decline.

Monday, 01 July 2013 07:23 AM Maruti Suzuki was testing the A-Star platform for potential new hatchback models, including the possibility of a diesel engine. However, there were no significant updates or actions taken on this front. I believe a diesel option could have made the A-Star more competitive.

Tuesday, 26 February 2013 11:09 PM The Maruti A-Star offered a mileage of 16.98 to 19 kmpl, depending on the transmission type. The manual petrol variant had a mileage of 19 kmpl, while the automatic variant had a mileage of 16.98 kmpl. I think the fuel efficiency was one of the strong points of this car.

Monday, 10 December 2012 07:50 PM In an attempt to boost sales, Maruti Suzuki introduced a limited edition of the A-Star, called the A-Star Aktiv. This edition added some vibrant and exciting features to the standard model. I believe such limited editions can sometimes revitalize interest in a model, but it wasnt enough to save the A-Star.

Monday, 03 September 2012 03:32 PM Maruti Suzuki launched the facelift of the A-Star in the Chinese market at the Chengdu Auto Show. Although this update was not available in India, it showed the companys efforts to keep the model relevant globally. I think it would have been interesting to see this facelift in India as well.

Thursday, 12 August 2010 08:12 PM The Maruti A-Star came in various variants, including the Lxi, Vxi, and Zxi, with features like air conditioning, central locking, and a height-adjustable driver seat. I believe these features made it a decent option in its segment.
