 The Hindu Business Line : Maruti 800's many lives
It cannot be denied, however, that the sales volume of Maruti 800 that stood at about 13,000 last year has reduced to about 10,000 cars per month this year and continues to slide.
While Maruti is confident that the numbers for even the 800 will start rising again, auto analysts say that the country's largest carmaker will face an uphill task pushing the car in the medium term.
I suspect that the 800 will be flogged till such time as the Tatas come out with their Rs 1 lakh car in the next couple of years.

 MARUTI 800 AC
Space has never been at a premium in the 800 but it will still allow a family of four to wiggle inside and it’s not uncommon to find six and eight people in the utmost discomfort, so anything is possible.
Maruti has also tried to control ‘evaporative emissions’, the problem of fuel fumes escaping while the car is at a standstill.
With the more basic engine and a four-speed 'box, the 800 is not as fuel efficient as the Alto and loses out to its heavier sibling both in the city and on the highway.

If the Alto were to indeed replace the Maruti 800 as the entry-level car, it will give some breathing space to rivals, since the Alto cannot be manufactured at the cost of an 800.
