New Maruti Omi Limited edition launched

Maruti Suzuki has launched a limited edition of its three decade old people carrier, the Omni. The longest running solider in the MSIL stable, the Omni was launched a year after the M800 in 1984 and since then has carted just about anything one can think of across the length and breadth of the country.

Speaking about it's Powertrain, the Omni is powered by Maruti Suzuki’s 796cc three-cylinder petrol engine that develops 37PS of power and 62Nm of torque. The engine is mated to a four-speed manual gearbox which sends power to the rear wheels. Stopping power is provided by disc brakes at the front and drum brakes at the back. Upfront, the Omni uses McPherson strut suspension while the rear suspension consists of leaf springs.

The Maruti Suzuki Omni was launched in India in the year 1985 and the very same van is still on sale 28 years later in our market. Over the years, the Omni ditched the carburettor for a fuel injection system as per emissions norms and lost its voluptuous roof which made a brief comeback in 1999.

In the Omni’s lifespan, Maruti introduced an ambulance variant of the van, an eight-seater version and a cargo variant with CNG option to capture a greater market share which is being eaten into by modern vehicles. Here are the list which includes floor mats, a left side ORVM, new seat covers and a CD player (AUX input included) with four speakers.

Price of Maruti Omni ranges from 2.25 lakh to 2.50 lakh.
