Spotted: Maruti Suzuki Splash And A-star

Did anybody notice that they are parked in a no-parking zone?

The trailor looks good, hope the "real" thing also lives upto people's expectations.

The Splash is expected to go head to head with i10.

Not sure how will they manage to positon the A-star.

get ready for sleepless nights. Splash 1.3MJD should be enough to kill the i10 D.

Hi, great pictures buddy. I feel apart from Splash the other car snapped maybe the new generation Alto, because the car does not resemble anything like the A-Star that we saw in the Auto Expo.

The interiors shown are of Splash or the other model?

As pointed out by fellow members, the black Splash has the 'VDI' badging. The 'DDIS' badge is visible somewhat.

Its seems like Hyundai and Tata would have sleepless nights very soon

sooper sooper !

this is why i love t-bhp . The A-Star looks bad though, i would prefer the Alto any day ! . Splash is neat though in india many may not like the rear profile

amezing scoop..it seems like these are actual production cars..A star is looking much better than the pic publised by OD somemonths ago.

scorp 1 · 19th June 2008, 21:59

Awesome !! It's indeed the Splash, though unsure if other is an A-Star.

A-Star Concept was :

T-BHP rocks !

I thought they're both the same car. Splash
the white one's a VXi and the black's a VDi with ABS
why is everyone going on and on about the A star?

great scoop nonetheless

vinaykiran79 · 19th June 2008, 22:06

Hi Guys
Everyone is appretiating the two cars, that is A star and Splash. But some how i did not like the design of both the cars. The present line of cars from Maruti is better than them. Well i dont know about the engine specs and the chassis but he looks is not attractive. I feel swift and zen estilo is much beautiful than these cars.

Good work done... to post those pics here. It seams Maruti is launching them very soon.

rippergeo, the second picture is A-star. Notice how the rear-end of splash is different from this one. This is the A-star the one going to replace alto .

Mods: sorry for continous posting, was replying to this question from rippergeo

Both aren't same. Look the front view, and oh, the back view too !

Ripper there's a white A-star with the round headlamps. The dashboard shot is of the A-star.
