Maruti Suzuki has
launched the WagonR with a BS-VI 1.2L petrol engine in India. The BS-VI WagonR
1.2L petrol's prices range from INR 5,10,000* to INR 5,91,000*. The prices of
the BS-IV WagonR 1.0L have been revised, and they range from INR 4,34,000* to
INR 5,33,00* now. The new prices come in effect from today - 14 June 2019.
The WagonR has been
the bread and butter offering for Maruti Suzuki. The tallboy hatchback has
worked wonders for India's largest automaker in the last 20 years of its
existence and has regularly worked its way to the 'Top 5 selling cars in India'
list. Apart from its reliable engine and spacious/practical cabin, its
lower-entry price has also been its USP which has arguably contributed to the
popularity over the years.
The 2019 Maruti
Wagon R was launched in January this year. It is underpinned by the company's
fifth-gen Heartect platform and is available with two petrol engine options.
The WagonR 1.0L comes powered with the BS-IV K10B three-cylinder engine which
churns out 68 PS at 5,500 rpm and 90 Nm of torque at 3,500 rpm. This
engine comes paired with a 5-speed manual transmission or a 5-speed automated
manual transmission. A petrol-CNG variant of the 1.0L engine model is
available, in which the engine's maximum power and maximum torque reduce to 59 PS and 78 Nm respectively.
The 2019 Maruti
WagonR 1.2L comes with a K12M four-cylinder engine which delivers 83 PS at 6,000 rpm and 113 Nm of torque at 4,200 rpm. It is also available with a
standard 5-speed manual transmission and an optional 5-speed automated manual
transmission. These output figures belong to the BS4 version engine. The
1.0-litre and 1.2-litre petrol engine options offer an ARAI-tested fuel
efficiency of 22.5 km/l and 20.52 km/l, respectively. The 1.0L petrol-CNG
engine returns 33.54 km/kg.
The 2019 Maruti
Wagon R in its latest iteration comes with features like steering-mounted
controls, a new instrument cluster and 7-inch SmartPlay Studio info system.
Driver airbag, rear parking sensors, and ABS with EBD are also included as
standard safety features.
