Autos Arena has photographed what appears to be a
Maruti Stingray. Its unlikely that Maruti Suzuki
would take such a drastic measure to a proven design formula.
The case could be that the Stingray could abandon
its independent branding, and become the 2017 Maruti Wagon R VXI+. The exterior
of the 2017 Wagon R VXi+ is identical to the Stingray, save for the alloy rims
now finished in gun metal.
The 2017 Maruti Wagon R comes with dual-tone beige
and black dashboard with gloss black accents instead of retaining the
Stingray’s all black layout with silver inserts, along with beige fabric
upholstery for the seats and door cards.
Under the hood is a 1.0-liter K-Series petrol engine that
generates 68 PS and 90 Nm of torque. It can be paired with a 5-speed manual
gearbox or 5-speed AGS (AMT). The Wagon R is available with the option of a
factory fitted CNG Kit.
