Highlights

    Now, we have already shared the key details about car with you and our first look review. The Maruti Suzuki Ignis is built on the carmaker's new gen platforms so the exterior styling and the interior design is all-new and very appealing. Apart from being stylish and well-equipped, the Ignis is also lighter and offers higher torsional rigidity that translates into increased stability and better safety standards. Like the Maruti Suzuki Wagon R, the Ignis too comes with a tallboy stance with the added characteristics of an SUV such as high ground clearance, bolder design and solid character lines. After a long wait the company has finally launched the car in India

    The all-new Maruti Suzuki Ignis borrows its powertrain from the Baleno and the Swift hatchback. So under the hood, you get both petrol and diesel engine options. While the petrol trim is powered by a 1.2-litre K-Series petrol motor and the diesel version gets the tried and tested 1.3-litre DDiS engine. Interestingly, both the engines will be offered with the optional Auto Gear Shift.

    Technical Specifications:

    Engine Petrol Diesel
    Displacement 1197cc 1248cc
    Max Power 82bhp 74bhp
    Max Torque 113Nm 190Nm
    Transmission 5-Speed MT / AGS 5-Speed MT / AGS
    Fuel Efficiency 20.89 kmpl 26.80 kmpl

    In order to ensure that the Maruti Suzuki Ignis' price is competitive, the company has employed high levels of localisation - much like the Vitara Brezza and Baleno. So the car has been launched in India at an introductory price of Rs. 4.59 lakh to Rs. 7.80 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).
