Explained: Maruti Suzuki’s Most Expensive Car In India Can Get A 5-Star Safety Rating

Maruti Suzuki Car Safety:  Maruti Suzuki is India’s largest car manufacturer, and it makes some of the most fuel-efficient cars. While the brand’s cars are popular for their affordable prices and fuel efficiency, they start to wane when it comes to safety. However, the fourth-generation of the Dzire mid-size sedan and the second-generation of the Baleno hatchback recently scored 5-star and 4-star ratings in Bharat NCAP, respectively. Now, the brand’s ‘Most Expensive Car’ can get a 5-star rating soon.

Maruti’s Most Expensive Car

Maruti has a very diverse lineup in India, and the brand offers it all, from hatchbacks to SUVs, MPVs, and sedans. While the Alto K10 remains the most affordable car, the Invicto gets the tag as the brand’s most expensive offering in the country. Since 2017, Toyota and Maruti have been involved in a strategic partnership, and both of these brands now have similar car models with different names. For example, Baleno (Maruti) and Glanza (Toyota), Invicto (Maruti) and Innova Hycross (Toyota), Fronx (Maruti) and Taisor (Toyota), along with Grand Vitara (Maruti) and Hycross (Toyota).
