The Indian small car market is maybe one of the fastest growing market segments at the moment and many manufacturers want a slice of the pie, before the super-cheap Tata Nano claims its stake.
One of the those manufacturers is Suzuki and their Alto replacing A-Star concept car has been spotted for testing in India alongside the Suzuki Splash and Splash VDi diesel. Suzuki works closely with local car maker Maruti and is currently holding a major market share in the country.
Where these two cars will be placed is still unclear, the Splash might replace the R-Wagon and take on the Hyundai i10 while the A-Star will most likely be placed below the Swift. Pricing and specs have not yet been announced but the Splash is expected to make its dealership debut this fall.

If you have the Splash and then the Swift, what good is it to squeeze in another model in that 2K price gap?
I was hoping that the A-Star would become a compact hottish hatch for the city - 1.0L Turbo with 100BHP to rival the Smart.
