Talk:Suzuki Alto

message: In India the unit of money is Rupees (IRS),  which is similar to Dollar, Pound or Dirham and not Paise which is similar to Shilling, Pence or Fils. Seems like a deliberate effort to devalue the Indian Currency from the author

thread_title:  Indian Currency System 

message: I think this page could do with having some detail added, which I can do - but do people think the detail about Pak Suzuki and Jiangnan should still be included, or ought they to go on new pages? (I don't mean the fact that the Alto is made by them, but rather the extra bits about factory location, the rest of their ranges etc.) AJHW 17:09, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: When in doubt, separate articles for separate models / brands helps the 'Keep it Simple' requirement, which both makes the project more user friendly as a device for disseminating knowledge and avoids confusing folks with things they hadn't wished nor expected to discover.    But obviously there is a critical mass 'below' which a separate article isn't justified simply because, collectively, we've nothing to write about the 'separate' - differently named, assembled some place else or whatever - variant.   That can sometimes be addressed by translating the article from the wiki version of the language of the country where the different version is assembled / manufactured.   In this case I know nothing about the Pak and Chinese production, but economic develpments in Asia mean that if present trends continue, maybe they're in the process of becoming more 'significant individually' - especially to wiki contributors / readers based in relevant countries.   The good news, here, is that we seem already to have a willing volunteer to kick off the separate articles.  Charles01 (talk) 12:50, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: To the question about merging the Zen article with Suzuki Alto, I would say leave it as such. The reason is, while the old Zen was a version of the Alto, teh new one isnt. And in effect, the Zen is a brand of its own in India.
As for the details, can cross link the stuff that is shared.

text: I, too, think the articles on the different models (particularly the Zen, which wasn't originally based on the Alto anyway) should stay separate - in most cases  the models have either mechanical differences (eg Maruti 800) or differences in market scope and significance (eg Daewoo Tico). I'd be inclined to split the bits on Pak Suzuki and Jiangnan off as separate articles, since the Alto doesn't make up the whole of their production. So if the suggested merge is as a result of my suggestion, I'd like to withdraw it - and if not, I'm against it. AJHW (talk) 15:05, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Possible restructuring 

message: why are the measurements put in inches? this car is not made in america or its 51st state (canada). they are the ones who use inches, and the alto is not sold there.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 234234234h9787987 (talk • contribs) 19:25, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Inches 

message: Aside from focusing solely on the Indian models of the Suzuki Alto this article wrongly features the Nissan Pixo as the same car, it is in fact almost a rebadged Suzuki Alto with obvious styling and structural differences.
I oppose the redirect to this article on that sole basis that this article doesn't even mention the Pixo and states simply that the Suzuki Alto is "also called Nissan Pixo" when in fact it isn't, they're different vehicles.

replies: text: Most of this article concerns older Suzuki Alto iterations and not the Indian cars. The Pixo is simply a rebadged, Indian-built Suzuki Alto with a slightly different front. If you have more useful info on this car, feel free to add it to that section.  ⊂| Mr.choppers |⊃  (talk) 16:45, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Bodge Job of an article

message: It reads "However the Alto's feels a tad better to use. The engine too is more refined and not as harsh as contemporaries."  better than what; what contemporaries. Sounds a little promotional!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.225.240.99 (talk) 11:02, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: words of choice

message: The Altos were assembled and sold in Pakistan only since 1989. So, it is technically wrong to replace the 1984- models' infobox containing Gurgaon, India with Karachi, Pakistan. The SS80s were in India since 1984, being manufactured and sold in India as Maruti 800.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.207.220.8 (talk) 10:54, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: The SS80 was also sold in Pakistan as the Suzuki FX. In both cases, they were just assembled locally from CKD kits.  Mr.choppers | ✎  03:21, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
