Maruti Suzuki has displayed a range of modified cars at the 2014 Auto Expo. These are customized versions of their regular vehicles and are showcased to display customers how there vehicles can be personalised. Some of them look quirky while some look good. As we have seen before, Maruti Suzuki showcases such types of cars every year at the Auto Expo but nothing ever comes to production. We will be talking in detail about all these cars later but meanwhile have a glimpse of all of them. Maruti Suzuki has also unveiled the Concept Ciaz (based on the Authentics concept) and SX4 S-Cross at the Delhi Motor Show.

No chance at all. Even if they went into production I would think it unlikely that it would be able to be road registered. Definatly couldn't in NZ, so assume AUS is the same if not even stricter.
The main issue being, all new cars must meet certain safety requirements, with crush zones, airbags and abs etc.
We can buy the standard Marauti here but only for farm use, I have seen one driving around however with motorbike plates on it, so not sure how that works.

RWT:

Basically they are a WT sierra with an EFI G13. (I think it's now a G13BB)

They won't ever be sold for road use outside of some third world countries as they don't meet ADR/EU/DOT standards for occupant safety or emissions. They are sold in NZ as a "farmworker" but as Pooke pointed out in his (slightly confusingly worded?) post they can't be registered for road use.

You'll note that car has extended shackles and I'm pretty sure it also has wheel spacers. :D

Suzuki's world wide have been responsible for some of the most embarassing/worrying "concepts" ever. Who could forget the NGV with thornbirds on it?

Its a 1.3 DDiS engine, which I think is the FIAT engine. I don't think that the shackles are extended, just a different style, but it does have lift springs.

Edit: looks like a shackle reversal on the front.

Nope, 100% extended anti inversion shackles.

The marutis sold in NZ are still petrol powered

In fact, looking at it again, I reckon most of that aftermarket stuff has come from Thailand. Just a hunch.

I know......that thing would have looked much better with an un-obtainium amount of speed holes cut into it.
