Maruti Suzuki WagonR ZXI Plus AT

Maruti Suzuki Wagon R remains in the top-selling brackets of Indian hatchbacks, thanks to its spacious interior, efficient performance, and good fuel efficiency. Its tall-boy design ensures complete headroom comfort, making it practical for use both for families and urban dwellers. Maruti Suzuki unveiled the Wagon R Waltz Edition in 2024, a limited edition version. With every edition, new cosmetic updates can be seen. 

Maruti Suzuki Wagon R Price

The Maruti Suzuki Wagon R is available in 4 trim levels - LXI, VXI, ZXI and ZXI Plus - and in total of 9 variants. The WagonR price in India starts at Rs 554500 and goes up to Rs 720500. All the prices are ex-showroom, Delhi. 

Most value of Money Variant

We suggest VXi AGS (AMT) version of the tall-boy hatchback. It is the most value-for-money variant, balancing the essential features and automated manual transmission for convenience and affordability. This variant is priced nearly around Rs. 6.38 lakh and comes with useful features like power windows, steering-mounted controls, and a 4-speaker music system. It is a smart pick for city driving.

Key Features of Maruti Suzuki Wagon R

The Wagon R features include a 7-inch SmartPlay Studio touchscreen, steering-mounted audio controls, and electrically adjustable ORVMs. The higher variants offer alloy wheels and dual-tone exterior options for comfort and style.

Maruti Suzuki WagonR Mileage

Wagon R is very fuel-friendly. With the 1.0-litre petrol AMT traveling 25.19 kmpl, the CNG model made 33.48 km/kg, further justifying why budget-conscious consumers are choosing it.

How Safe is Maruti Wagon R?

Safety is another aspect where the Suzuki Wagon R has several things to its advantage. It boasts two front airbags that can ensure safe passengers, ABS with EBD for better braking, and rear parking sensors that facilitate easy maneuvering in cramped areas. The models that come with AGS also get hill-hold assist to prevent rolling on an incline, while the ESP also lets the vehicle handle different types of road conditions better. That would make Wagon R a safe bet for the family.

Color Options

The buyer has options of seven monotone options along with two dual-tone color options: Gallant Red, Poolside Blue, and Magma Grey with Midnight Black roof as per the requirement and choice.

Engine and transmission

The engine under the hood of the Wagon R for the buyer has the following two engine variations: The 1.0-litre petrol engine is good for 66.08 bhp and 89 Nm, and will be available with a choice of either a 5-speed manual or a 5-speed AMT. The larger 1.2-litre petrol engine delivers 88.76 bhp and 113 Nm, and will also be sold with both manual and AMT transmissions. The CNG derivative takes its power from the 1.0-liter petrol unit, producing 56.22 bhp and 82 Nm of peak torque, and there is a 5-speed manual gearbox given, which will come in handy for those watching fuel consumption and cost, but it still is an environment-friendly car.

Boot Space and Dimensions

Inside space is also very practical because Wagon R has given a 341-litre boot that too perfect for daily usage as well as for a longer journey. Just the dimensions of the car are large, measuring 3,655 mm in length, 1,620 mm in width, 1,675 mm in height, and 2,435 mm in the wheelbase. This tall-boy design not only gives the Wagon R its characteristic look but also makes maximum use of space for headroom and has all passengers sitting in an upright position for a comfortable journey.

Competition Check

Challenges are in the form of competitors Tata Tiago, Maruti Celerio, and Citroen C3, however, the Wagon R leads the charts due to its affordability, efficiency, and practicality.
