Maruti Alto 800 and K10 to Get ABS and Airbags

So before the new safety norms come in place, Maruti Suzuki India wants to ensure that even the base models of its vehicles get dual airbags and anti-lock braking system (ABS). Interestingly, the company is now considering to offer airbags and ABS as an option feature with its Alto range (Alto 800, K10) as well.
The recently launched Maruti S-Cross and facelifted Ertiga have also received this safety package. While all the variants of the S-Cross get these features as standard offerings, the Ertiga facelift's base trim gets it as an option. The company's much-awaited premium hatchback, the Baleno, too will get dual airbags and anti-locking braking system + electronic brakeforce distribution (EBD) as standard features.

Though the company hasn't officially said anything about other of its products getting airbags and ABS, we expect the company's entire lineup getting these features.
