Despite the fact that Indians are conscious about the
running costs and the continuous increase in petrol prices, petrol cars still
have been loved and bought. While diesel cars are fast capturing the passenger
vehicles market, petrol cars are also selling in good numbers, thanks to their
relatively lower prices, high performance and longevity of the engine. Some of
the most popular Petrol cars in India are put forward in this feature.
Most of the cars from the Maruti stables fit into this
category. Maruti Celerio, Swift, Swift Dzire, Alto K10, Alto 800, Wagon R,
Ertiga all are highly fuel efficient cars. Yet the most popular one of late
seem to be the Alto. A 3-cylinder, 0.8-litre, F8D-796cc engine which has the

800. The engine is mated to a 5-speed manual transmission gear box which delivers
an outstanding mileage of 22.74 kmpl. Moreover Alto 800 is very affordable at
