Maruti Suzuki S-Presso Spotted Undisguised; Official Launch Soon

Maruti Suzuki’s upcoming hatchback, the S-Presso, is all set to be launched in India later this month. Ahead of its official launch, the car has been recently spied undisguised, offering the Indian audience a clear insight into its design dynamics. Based on the Future S concept, the Maruti Suzuki S-Presso features an upright stance. Apart from this, the hatchback has no features matching the Future S concept that was initially unveiled at the Auto Expo 2018. The Maruti Suzuki S-Presso further features a square-ish front end design with a high-placed bonnet. The hatchback gets a Vitara Brezza-inspired chrome grille at the front that has been mated to halogen headlights flowing towards the back. The micro-SUV look of the S-Presso is further enhanced by body cladding at the sides. In addition to this, the brand has equipped the hatchback with LED DRLs at the front for offering it a premium look.

The 180mm of ground clearance offers the high-riding hatchback an authentic Renault Kwid like stance.

The S-Presso measures 3,565mm in length and 1,564mm in height and it stands tall as compared to both Kwid and the Alto K10. Powering the upcoming hatchback will be a 1.0-litre, three-cylinder K10B petrol engine that will be BS6-complaint.
