Maruti Suzuki Ignis launch around Diwali, here are features & specifications

Despite rumours regarding a delay in the production of the Ignis compact crossover, the company will launch the vehicle around Diwali. This will allow the company to benefit from the festive season sentiments of consumers. Earlier, the market was flooded with rumours that the company might delay the launch of Ignis due to an order backlog for the Vitara Brezza and the Baleno. India will be the second market globally to receive the Ignis after Japan.

With the Ignis, Maruti Suzuki will mark its entry into the compact crossover segment, which presently consists of the Mahindra KUV 100. The car will be launched with a 1.0 L Boosterjet petrol engine, which will develop about 110 hp and will be paired to a 5-speed manual transmission. There is no clarity on the launch timeline for a diesel variant yet. However, we expect the Ignis diesel to be powered by the familiar 1.3 L DDiS engine along with the option of an automated manual transmission (AMT).
