Maruti Suzuki now offers Electronic Stability Program (ESP) as standard across all models. Maruti Suzuki has announced that the S-Presso and the Alto K10 will now get ESP as standard. This safety feature has been added to all the car’s variants without any price revision.

The Maruti Alto K10 and Maruti S-Presso have now joined the other models in the carmaker’s lineup to feature electronic stability programme (ESP) as standard.

The Maruti Alto K10 and Maruti S-Presso are based on the brand’s HEARTECT Platform.

Maruti Suzuki’s standard safety feature across its vehicle lineup now include dual front airbags, ABS with EBD, reverse parking sensors, and an engine immobiliser. Additionally, a collapsible steering column, ensuring a comprehensive safety suite that enhances protection for all passengers.

Partho Banerjee, Senior Executive Officer, Marketing & Sales, Maruti Suzuki India Limited, said, “The addition of Electronic Stability Program+ as a standard feature on Maruti Suzuki product portfolio (excluding Eeco) aligns with our endeavour to democratize advanced features and it significantly increases the value proposition of our vehicles. This is a step towards ensuring that our customers enjoy enhanced safety through improved driving confidence regardless of the model they choose. At Maruti Suzuki, we believe that advanced technology should be accessible to all, and this reinforces our commitment to delivering high-quality vehicles that cater to the diverse needs of Indian consumers.”

How does ESP work?

Electronic stability program (ESP) alters the vehicle’s braking and torque to individual wheels for better dynamic control in extreme conditions, especially slippery ones. It’s based on the successful anti-lock braking system (ABS) and anti-slip control (ASR) technologies, but uses a more extensive set of sensors that detect steering angle, lateral acceleration and yaw rate sensors apart from the standard wheel speed and wheel slip sensors.
