5 Cheapest AMT Automatic Cars – Automatic vehicles have gained a lot of popularity in India, especially in urban areas where comfort and convenience are the top priorities. Nowadays, even the most inexpensive cars have an AMT (Automated Manual Transmission) which is a good way of keeping the cost down while providing the luxury of driving without using the clutch. AMT cars have better fuel economy, are simple to service, and are way cheaper than a CVT or torque converter automatic. We present to you a comprehensive list of 10 cheapest AMT automatic cars you can purchase in India right now.
1. Maruti Spresso AMT
At present, the cheapest automatic car in India is the Maruti Spresso AMT. It has an SUV-like tall structure and a petrol engine with a displacement of 1.0 litres. The AMT gearbox is tailored for maximum fuel consumption and provides perceivable yet enhanced gear transitions compared to its predecessor. Its price starts at ₹4.74 lakh ex-showroom for the VXi (O) AMT and goes as high as ₹5.24 lakh for the most expensive automatic variant.
2. Maruti Alto K10 AMT
The Alto K10 ranks one spot over the Spresso in the model range and is equipped with the same 1.0-litre K10 engine. The AMT feels very smooth in city traffic but can be a little bumpy when the driver suddenly floors the accelerator. The car is priced at ₹4.94 lakh ex-showroom for the VXi (O) AGS and the fully loaded AMT variant costs ₹5.44 lakh.
3. Renault Kwid AMT
Renault Kwid not only provides a great deal but also a fashionable car with an AMT transmission in most of the models. The car also features a gear shifter that rotates and is very different from that of other cars but it is not the most user-friendly one. AMT pricing is from ₹4.99 lakh ex-showroom for the Evolution AMT and up to ₹5.99 lakh for the top-spec AMT model that includes all options.
4. Tata Tiago AMT
Tata Tiago has won over many hatchback enthusiasts and buyers alike due to its great endurances and security features. It is released with both manual and AMT in petrol and CNG versions. The price of the AMT starts at ₹5.3 lakh ex-showroom (XTA AMT). AMT offers the convenience, but it does have noticeable shift jerks and head-nod effect during rapid acceleration. The top-end CNG automatic goes above ₹7.8 lakh ex-showroom.
5. Maruti Celerio AMT
Celerio comes along with a spacious interior and very good fuel economy. This AMT is more polished and smoother than the previous Maruti systems. The starting price for the AMT variant is ₹5.6 lakh ex-showroom (VXi AMT) and can reach up to ₹6.73 lakh for the ZXi Plus model.
