The Maruti Suzuki Alto utilizes a braking system that typically includes disc brakes in the front and drum brakes in the rear. Many Alto models, especially newer ones, are also equipped with Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) for enhanced safety.

The front brakes typically use disc brakes, where brake pads are squeezed against a rotating disc to slow down the vehicle.
The rear brakes often utilize drum brakes, where brake shoes expand against the inside of a rotating drum.
ABS prevents the wheels from locking up during hard braking, allowing the driver to maintain steering control and reduce stopping distances, especially on slippery surfaces.
EBD works with ABS to distribute braking force optimally between the front and rear wheels based on the vehicle's load and driving conditions.
Brake pads have a limited lifespan and will need replacement periodically. The lifespan can vary depending on driving conditions and driving style, but a general guideline is between 25,000 to 65,000 miles.
Regular checking and replacement of brake fluid is crucial for maintaining optimal braking performance.
Routine inspections of brake components, such as calipers, rotors, and brake lines, are essential for ensuring the braking system functions safely and effectively.
The Suzuki Alto also features a parking brake (handbrake) for securing the vehicle when parked.
