Maruti's engineer team worked with Suzuki boffins in India as well as in Japan to make this new K12M engine as advanced as possible.
The main aim of this engineers team was to reduce losses and to make an innovative rocker-less DOHC camshaft, plastic intake manifold and offset crankshaft that has low tension rings help do just that.
