Hi. Can you please tell me which dealer so that even i can go and have a look at it.

[richie4u]

well I got a call today from my local maruti dealer that the new WagonR is releasing on the 23rd and I will be the first one to get the car.

With the launch date so near, I'm surprised that Maruti is still advertising the old W-R

Some unconfirmed sources at Maruti are calling it Wagon K , probably because of the Kappa series engine.

Wagon-K, that just sounds stupid.

The new vehicle is going to be called the Wagon R itself. Check the chrome beading above the number plate. Also it comes with Suzuki's K-series engine which has no relation whatsoever with Hyundai's Kappa engine.

I intended to write K-series engine. In the first few pics i could not clearly read out whether it was R or K in the end, hence accepted the statement from those sources.
Anyways Wagon R and Wagon K would sound equally unacceptable to a person who hasnt heard of the name Wagon R earlier on.

For reasons good or bad, WagonR has become a well-known name for Maruti Suzuki, and is one of their best sellers. They wont experiment with the name, IMO!

Yes I think so too. In my recent visit to England, I found a few Suzuki WagonRs. During my last visit in 2003, they were branded as Vauxhall Agila, but it looks like they've restored the original name in the recent past.

The demo car has reached showroom in Siliguri..may check it out this evening..

The car was still in the workshop. I didn't quite like the "rounded" front. Something between a Ritz and a Wagon R and an Estilo. I think the Wagon R has lost some of its character there. Hate or like it, the sharp looking front gave some character to this car earlier.

I like the rear wiper, which is a boon for people where it rains like the way it does here in Siliguri and the North East.

And I sure do like the extra space, extra long, extra big.

The stickers are there because it is a demo/test drive car.

Wow,The interiors look really refined and fresh,also love the blue lights in the front.
