It has cumulatively sold 7.74 lakh units of such vehicles across its portfolio so far.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;After we introduced AGS, slowly we have expanded it in so many of our models. We do believe that with increased congestion, especially in urban areas, AGS is a further addition to the ease of driving.\u00a0So we believe technology will pick up even further,&#8221; Srivastava told PTI.<\/p>\n<p>The company has nine models &#8212; Celerio, Alto K10, WagonR, Dzire, Ignis, Swift, Brezza, S-Presso and Baleno &#8212; which come with the AGS option.<\/p><div class=\"trade-content_5\" id=\"trade-1735596354\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4023722985638610\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- in_content_2_news -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4023722985638610\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7925020301\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><\/div>\n<p>In terms of AGS penetration, he said, &#8220;It varies between 12 per cent to 23 per cent across the models&#8221; and the volume among individual models also &#8220;varies because of different times of introduction&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Celerio has clocked cumulative sales of 2 lakh units of AGS, followed by WagonR at 1.39 lakh units, Swift 1.24 lakh units, Dzire 1.01 lakh units, Alto K10 68,000 units, Ignis 49,000 units, Brezza 39,000 units, S-Presso 37,000 units and Baleno 20,000 units.<\/p>\n<p>On the increasing acceptance of the AGS technology, Srivastava said it is mainly due to the affordability factor. He cited the example of entry-level SUVs where the price difference between a normal transmission and AGS, is just about Rs 50,000 resulting in AGS penetration of around 19 per cent.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, for the same type of vehicle with dual-clutch transmission (DCT) or continuously variable transmission (CVT) technology, the price difference is over Rs 1.2 lakh leading to a low penetration of the automated transmission option to just about 2 per cent.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;With people now wanting more ease of driving,&#8221; Srivastava said sales of AGS vehicles will also accelerate &#8220;like what happened with power steering, which had a premium and people took some time to shift from manual to pay the premium but now everything is almost power steering&#8221;.
