# Maruti Alto K10 tops list of cheapest six-airbag cars at ₹3.70 lakh 2026-11-10T03:41:23+00:00 | Business & Economy | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The Maruti Alto K10 is India's cheapest car with six airbags as standard, priced at ₹3.70 lakh ex-showroom Delhi, according to a CarDekho list published in October 2026. It is followed by the Maruti Celerio at ₹4.70 lakh, the Tata Tiago at ₹4.77 lakh and the Maruti WagonR at ₹4.99 lakh. A total of ten models begin below ₹5.80 lakh, and four of them start under ₹5 lakh. The list ranges up to the Tata Punch at ₹5.75 lakh, a gap of ₹2.05 lakh between first and tenth place. The Maruti S-Presso, with two airbags from ₹3.50 lakh, costs just ₹20,000 less than the Alto K10 on Autocar India's list, though the cars are different models. Buyers are advised to check whether the base price shown applies to the variant with six airbags, as some trims may not include them, and to look up Bharat NCAP crash-test results before booking. ## Indian Opinion Analysis For a buyer who treats six airbags as a floor, not a feature, the search no longer begins at ₹8 lakh or above. The ten models named here pull that floor below ₹5.80 lakh, and four of them start under ₹5 lakh. But the list has two catches that a showroom visit will settle: the price quoted is ex-showroom Delhi, so on-road costs in other cities add several thousand rupees, and some brands reserve six airbags for higher trims even if the model is listed as compliant. The article names the variant check explicitly, which is the practical next step for any shopper. ## Coverage - businesstoday.in straight listicle with price comparison and buyer guidance, no government angle This brief was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
