Now coming to the powertrain, the upcoming Maruti Suzuki Alto K10 hatchback will be powered by the same Dual Jet, 1-litre, naturally-aspirated petrol engine as other Maruti Suzuki hatchbacks such as the new Celerio, and Wagon R 1.0.
This K10C series engine produces 65.7bhp of peak power at 5,500rpm and 89Nm of torque at 3,500rpm. Also, this engine is likely to come with two gearbox options - a 5-speed manual transmission and a 5-speed AMT unit.
Also, leaked NCT registration documents also conform to the use of the above engine and gearbox option in the upcoming Maruti Suzuki Alto K10 hatchback. These leaked documents also reveal that the upcoming Maruti Suzuki Alto K10 hatchback will be available in 11 variants.
Out of these 11 variants, 6 of these variants will be equipped with the 5-speed manual transmission, whereas the remaining 4 variants will be equipped with an AMT unit.
In addition to this information, the leaked NCT registration documents also reveal the dimensions of the upcoming Maruti Suzuki Alto K10 hatchback.
Looking at these dimensions, the upcoming Maruti Suzuki Alto K10 hatchback will be slightly bigger than the Maruti Suzuki Alto 800 as the upcoming hatchback measures 3,530mm long, 1,490mm wide, and 1,520mm tall. Also, the wheelbase of the upcoming Maruti Suzuki Alto K10 measures 2,380mm.
When launched, the upcoming Maruti Suzuki Alto K10 hatchback won't be having much of competition from other manufacturers as the only remaining entry-level hatchback that is not a Maruti Suzuki is the Renault Kwid.
