Maruti Suzuki displayed three small 660 CC Kei cars from Suzuki Japan at their pavilion at the Auto Expo 2012. The small cars included – Suzuki Solio, the Suzuki MR Wagon and the Suzuki Palette SW variant. All these cars are sold in Japan as per their small car regulations and are highly fuel efficient and space saving cars. All these three cars are compact on outside (less length and width) but spacious on inside (small engine compartment and high and large passenger cabin). These cars are powered by a small K series 660 CC MPFI Petrol engine coupled with a CVT automatic transmission.

There is no official word on whether Maruti will replace India Maruti Wagon R with a more fuel efficient Suzuki MR Wagon in coming years or not, but what is clear is that Maruti has displayed these cars to gather people’s reaction on these cars for India and also Maruti has been found testing one such Kei car – Alto Eco in India, which indicated that Maruti is already testing the capability and performance of these 660 CC cars on Indian roads and under Indian climate conditions. If all goes well, Maruti may launch the MR Wagon (with some new name) at the Auto Expo 2014 in India.There has been a lot of positive enthusiasm when Maruti indicated few years back that it may launch Maruti Cervo in India, but eventually decides against launching it. Below is a video of Exteriors and Interiors review of MR Wagon from Auto Expo 2012:
