The 2017 Chevrolet Beat and Chevrolet Beat Essentia
sedans have been spied testing in India, courtesy IAB reader Abhishek Joshi.
The models spied are completely camouflaged,
although there have been instances where the Beat hatchback has been spied
completely undisguised. It features an evolutionary restyling with a newer
front fascia, revised taillamps and redesigned tailgate. The Chevrolet Beat
Essentia was revealed as a concept at the Auto Expo 2016, featuring the same
evolutionary restyling of its hatchback sibling, but with a boot.
Both models will continue with the current Beat’s
M300 underpinnings. Engine lineup could include the same 1.2-litre
four-cylinder petrol and 1.0-litre three-cylinder diesel engines paired with a
5-speed manual transmission as standard.
With the Sail and Enjoy falling flat, the
two Beat variants could be the last chance for the Indian subsidiary to prove
to the HQ that it is on the path to revival and convince it to invest on new
models.
