Maruti Suzuki WagonR Mileage
₹4.99 Lakh to ₹6.97 Lakhex-showroom
The WagonR gives you two petrol engines and a CNG option, each with its own figure. The 1.0 litre returns 24.35 kmpl as a manual and 25.19 kmpl with the AGS, while the bigger 1.2 litre reads 23.56 kmpl and 24.43 kmpl. The S-CNG, built on the 1.0 litre, is the frugal pick at 34.05 km/kg. Since the numbers vary by engine, it helps to match the figures to each WagonR trim and check where those trims sit on price.
