When the car was launched, petrol prices were shooting through the roof.

So for the first time ever, Maruti made sure that the car was available with a CNG option right from the beginning to have a wider operational field.

In the recent months, we have seen Maruti Suzuki launch two special edition models – WagonR Madhavan Signature Edition and Alto K10 Musik edition.
