Hi guys,

Is it possible to add Ac to std model of Alto. If yes, are there any disadvantages of this on performance of vehicle. Is this modification legal?

Better Ask Maruti Showroom, They do extra fitting of AC too

Bit costly but comes with warranty

better way then local garage guys

May be adding AC treated as modifications to vehicle ..

Eqnquired with Maruti showroom, quoted 21k.

Will adding AC will have performance impact on car other than known implication in company built AC cars?? I mean more problems when we fit AC kit to non ac car

depends on how powerful the AC is compared to the stock.

yup adding AC will surely decrease ur cars power perfomance and MILEAGE
btw showroom guys takes huge amount consult local garages n then come to a conclusion
