Updated Maruti Ignis spotted; gets roof rails

The updated Maruti Ignis has been spotted at a dealer yard. The spy images suggest that instead of cosmetic changes, the Ignis is likely to get roof rails and safety features such as rear parking sensors, co-driver seat belt reminder and an audible speed warning system.

Besides the silver roof rails, the car appears to be identical to the 2018 model. It has the same grille with chrome inserts and headlamps with integrated U-shaped LED daytime running lights. The front bumper is also the same and houses circular fog lamps that have chrome surrounds. At the rear, the Ignis gets the same wraparound tail lights and a dual-tone bumper as the outgoing car. Inside, the car is expected to get the touchscreen infotainment system from the new WagonR.

The car seen here is equipped with four parking sensors at the rear. This feature is likely to be standard on all variants of the Ignis. Besides this, the new car is also expected to get all safety features that are mandated by law from July 2019. These include airbags, ABS, seat belt reminder and high-speed warning system. 

The new Ignis is expected to be powered by the same 1.2-litre, 4-cylinder petrol engine that produces 82 BHP @ 6,000 rpm and 113 Nm of torque @ 4,200 rpm and comes with a choice of a 5-speed manual or 5-speed AMT.
