Alto K10, which started its journey on Indian roads in 2010 celebrated its fourth anniversary in the country recently and the car is still popular among the Indian auto lovers.

Under the hood, the new Alto K10 is likely to pack 998cc three pot motor of the Celelrio, which can churn out 68 PS of max power and 90 Nm of torque.
