Rumour: Maruti working on Ignis facelift

According to a media report, Maruti is working on a mid-cycle refresh of the Ignis hatchback. The production of the current Ignis has reportedly been stopped, but dealers haven't been instructed to halt bookings. 

The updated Ignis is expected to receive minor exterior updates and interior tweaks. It could be offered with an updated SmartPlay Studio infotainment system that was introduced on the new WagonR and the Baleno facelift. The car is likely to come equipped with safety features like ABS, airbags, reverse parking sensors, seatbelt reminder for front occupants and high speed warning on all variants.

The Ignis was launched in 2017 with petrol and diesel engine options. Low demand prompted Maruti to discontinue the diesel version in June 2018. Currently, the car is available with a 1.2-litre, 4-cylinder petrol engine that produces 82 BHP @ 6,000 rpm and 113 Nm of torque @ 4,200 rpm. It comes with either a 5-speed manual or a 5-speed AMT gearbox.
