Update: The Maruti﷽ S-Presso has now been launched with prices star🔴ting from Rs 3.69 lakh (ex-showroom, India).
Maruti is all set to unveil its newest offering, the S-Presso, on September 30. It will take on the likes of the Rena🏅ult Kwid and the Datsun redi-GO. Wi♉th the expected specifications of the S-Presso leaked, here is how it will fare against the other entry-level models:
Dimensions
Among the three offerings of this seg♌ment, the Kwid is the longest in length and gets the longest wheelbase too. In terms of overall width, the Renault Kwid, again, ranks first and it likely offers more shoul🔯der room at the rear as well. However, the leaked dimension figures of the S-Presso suggest it could be the tallest car of the segment.
Engines
Maruti is expected to offer a BS6-compliant 1.0-litre petrol engine with both a 5-speed manual and an AMT. The latter will only be offered on the higher-꧙spec V, V Opt and V+ variants. Let’s see how the S-Presso fares against its rivals in terms of powertrains:
Both the Kwid and redi-GO offer a choice of two engine options while the S-Presso gets one. However, all the three hatchbacks produce the same amount of power from their 1.0-litre petrol engines and are almost at par in terms of their torque outputs. All three come with either a 5-speed manual or a 5-speed AMT option.🐷
