Owning a car is already a costly affair for many and with the increasing prices, it&#8217;s like adding fuel to the fire. However, there are still a few car makers that have managed to keep the prices of their cars low, making them an attractive option for buyers who are looking for an affordable vehicle.

Despite its low price, the Alto 800 is still relevant in today&#8217;s day and age. It is one of the few sub-4 lakh rupee cars in India and has an 800 cc engine that keeps it affordable and provides peppy performance. The car comes with basic features that one would use day to day, such as an air conditioner and front power windows. For a low budget car, it does a great job at being a reliable and abuse friendly point A to point B commuter.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"maruti-suzuki-alto-800-specs\">Maruti Suzuki Alto 800 Specs:<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>Engine: 0.8-litre petrol (CNG optional)<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Power:\u00a0 47 PS\/41 PS<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Transmission: 5-speed manual transmission<br \/>Fuel Efficiency: 22 kmpl (petrol) 31.59km\/kg (CNG)<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Fuel Type: Petrol\/CNG<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Seating Capacity: 5<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Also Read &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/best-cng-cars-in-india\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/index.php\/best-cng-cars-in-india\/\">CNG Cars In India<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"maruti-suzuki-alto-k10%25c2%25a0\">Maruti Suzuki Alto K10\u00a0<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" class=\"wp-image-503988\" src=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20221006122407\/Maruti-Suzuki-Alto-K10-1160x653.jpg\" alt=\"Maruti Alto K10\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20221006122407\/Maruti-Suzuki-Alto-K10-1160x653.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20221006122407\/Maruti-Suzuki-Alto-K10-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20221006122407\/Maruti-Suzuki-Alto-K10-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20221006122407\/Maruti-Suzuki-Alto-K10.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The Alto K10 is essentially an upgraded version of the Alto 800, featuring a more contemporary design and a more efficient yet zippy 1.0-litre petrol engine.

There are several benefits to owning a low budget car, since they naturally come with better fuel efficiency, lower maintenance costs, and ease of driving in congested areas owing to their compact size. Before making a final decision, it&#8217;s recommended to do your research and test drive different models to ensure that you&#8217;re getting the best value for your money.
