The new revision of the compact-sized Maruti Suzuki S-Presso SUV for India features a modified engine that enables it to conserve fuel at virtually no cost of power output.
The K10B one-liter, three-cylinder,
naturally aspirated mill has been upgraded to a new version called K10C. A
couple of added phase inverters and native start/stop system support let it
consume less fuel while outputting 67 PS and 89 Nm to the wheels, just a single horsepower and 1 Nm of torque less than the
original.
Five-speed semi-auto versions now benefit
from ESP, making them India’s cheapest vehicles to support electronic
stabilization. But while opting for the ESP variant will set you back the
equivalent of US$ 7,060 in India, going for the entry spec with a manual
gearbox will cost you mere US$ 5,300.
