The Alto Now Gets A Loaded Top-Spec VXI+ Variant!

With the addition of the VXI+ variant, the Alto not only gets all the equipment from the VXI variant, but it also comes equipped with a 7-inch Smartplay touchscreen infotainment system, with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The VXI+ comes at a premium of Rs 13,000 over the VXI variant, which is mostly down to the touchscreen infotainment system. It remains relatively unchanged on the inside with a dual-tone cabin. 

Under the hood, the Alto VXI+ retains the BS6-compliant 796cc, 3-cylinder petrol mill, delivering 47PS/69Nm as well as a fuel efficiency of 22.05kmpl. Safety features in the Alto include dual-front airbags, ABS+EBD, reverse parking sensors, speed alert and seatbelt warning for driver and co-passenger.

With the long-awaited addition of the touchscreen infotainment system, the Alto has adapted well with the likes of modern hatchbacks and takes on the likes of the Renault Kwid and the Datsun Redi-GO in India. While this is a good Christmas/New Year surprise from the carmaker, it would be great if we can finally get an automatic option to put the cherry on the cake.
