Maruti Suzuki India has revealed that they have already received more than 6500 bookings of the new Alto model that would be released later this month.
The new Alto is likely to be sold as Alto 800. Maruti has not launched it. Photos and videos of this model are now available online.
The company said that they expect the bookings to cross 10,000 by the time it is launched in the market.
Maruti has already started delivering the units of this new model to the dealers so customers should get the deliveries rather fast this time around.
Maruti has sold more than 2.2 million units of the Alto model in India (and international markets). It is the largest selling car in India. It remains to be seen how the consumers would react to the rather awkward design of the updated edition.
