5 Cars, 9 Variants, 1 With 4-Star Safety Rating
A few years ago, automatic transmission was a luxury that was not offered with many affordable cars. However, things have changed, and automakers are now offering automated manual transmissions with many of their entry-level models. If you are on the lookout for a budget AMT model vehicle in India, here is the list of the 5 cars and 9 variants between them that you can take a look at before you make your decision. All are petrol-powered AMT cars.
Maruti Alto K10 VXI AT
Maruti Alto K10 VXI Plus AT
Maruti Wagon R VXI AT
Maruti Wagon R ZXI AT
Tata Tiago XTA AMT
Maruti Celerio VXI AMT
Renault KWID 1.0 RXT AMT
Renault KWID CLIMBER AMT
Renault KWID Urban Night Edition AMT
Maruti Alto K10 – 2 AMT variants between Rs 5-7 lakhs
The first and the most affordable vehicle available in India with an AMT transmission is the Maruti Alto K10. The pricing of this hatchback starts at Rs 5.61 lakh for the VXI AT variant. This variant offers a mileage of 24.9 kmpl. Another option within the Alto K10 lineup is the VXI Plus AT variant, which is priced at a slight premium at Rs 5.90 lakh (ex-showroom). This variant also offers the same 24.9 kmpl mileage. The 1.0-litre engine underneath the bonnet of the Alto K10 makes around 65 bhp and 89 Nm of torque.
Note that even though the nomenclature says AT, the specific type of automatic transmission both offer is the AMT. AMTs have improved a lot in the past few years and there are many happy customers for them now.
For those who prefer Maruti Suzuki cars for their reliability and low service costs, these are good cars to consider.
Renault Kwid: 3 AMT variants between Rs 5-7 lakhs
Next up on the list is the Renault Kwid, a popular budget hatchback that also comes with an AMT transmission. The 1.0 RXT AMT variant of the Kwid starts at Rs 6.12 lakh and offers a mileage of 22.3 kmpl. The next variant, which is priced above the RXT AMT, is the Kwid Climber AMT at Rs 6.33 lakh. Finally, the third variant on the AMT lineup is the Kwid Urban Night Edition AMT at Rs 6.39 lakh. All of the variants of the Kwid AMT come with a 999cc petrol engine that makes 67 bhp and 91 Nm of torque.
The Kwid is prefered by those buyers who want a car that looks smarter than the Maruti siblings here. The Kwid has been around for a long time in India, and are considered quite reliable – though resale value would not b as high as Maruti cars.
Maruti Suzuki Celerio – Just one variant between Rs 5-7 lakh
The Maruti Suzuki Celerio is another AMT transmission-equipped car from the Indo-Japanese carmaker. With a price tag of Rs 6.38 lakh, Maruti offers the Celerio VXI AMT variant. It offers the highest mileage of any car on this list at 26.68 kmpl. The Celerio VXI AMT comes equipped with a 998cc 3-cylinder petrol engine that makes around 65 bhp and 89 Nm of torque. It comes with dual front airbags, an air conditioning system, power windows, and a few other essential features.
This is the car to go for if every extra km per liter is important to you.
Maruti Suzuki Wagon R – 2 AMT variants between Rs 5-7 lakhs
If you want to go with a tallboy hatchback design, then look no further than the Wagon R. Maruti Suzuki offers the Wagon R VXI AT variant at a price of Rs 6.54 lakh. This variant of Wagon R offers a mileage of 25.19 kmpl. The other AMT variant in the Wagon R lineup is the ZXI AT variant, which is priced at Rs 6.83 lakh and offers a slightly lower mileage of 24.43 kmpl. Both of these cars come powered by the same 1.2-litre 4-cylinder petrol engine that makes around 88.5 bhp and 113 Nm of torque.
Other than the tallboy style, what you may like is the extra power the WagonR offers compared to the other cars in this list. 88.5 bhp and 113 bhp sounds quite good for a small car. Like some spirited driving? The WagonR AMTs are the cars for you.
Tata Tiago – Just One AMT Variant, But It’s Good!
Finally, the last car on this list is the Tata Tiago. This hatchback’s XTA AMT variant is offered with a price tag of Rs 6.95 lakh and offers the lowest mileage of all the vehicles in the list with 19.0 kmpl. It comes powered by a 1.2-litre 3-cylinder petrol engine that makes 84 bhp and 113 Nm of torque. The Tiago XTA AMT comes equipped with features such as ABS, dual airbags, corner stability control, and a sturdy build quality.
Why is the Tiago interesting? This is the hatchback that put Tata on the fast-track to high safety ratings. The Tiago has a 4-star safety rating – the highest among all the hatchbacks here. You also get a car that looks and is bigger inside and outside – but that results lowest fuel efficiency in the list. But you also get a car that is more grown-up than the rest here.
All-round winner
Between these cars and variants, we would pick both the Maruti WagonRs as the best all-rounders due to the combination of Maruti reliability and resale value, as well as the extra BHPs they offer. A runner-up would be the Tata Tiago, for its high safety and spacious interiors.
