Maruti Suzuki Ignis bookings commence

Team Evo India

Maruti Suzuki (MSIL) has begun online bookings for its latest offering Ignis ahead of its launch on January 13 for a booking amount of Rs 11,000. Apart from online bookings on the Nexa website, potential Ignis buyers can also book the car via the toll free number 1800 200 6392 or directly at any of the NEXA showrooms through which the Ignis will be sold. The car is going to be launched at an EDM concert featuring one of the world’s most famous DJs.

The Ignis that had made its debut as Suzuki iM-4 concept in 2015 at the Geneva Motor Show and was later unveiled again at the Tokyo Motor Show. The India-spec Ignis will be powered by a 1.2-litre VVT petrol engine and the 1.3-litre DDiS diesel engine, both mated to either 5-speed manual gearboxes or AMTs.  The petrol variant engine pumps out 81bhp of maximum power and 113Nm of maximum torque, while the diesel churns out 74bhp of maximum power and 190Nm of maximum torque.

Each of the variants will be offered in four trim levels, namely Sigma Delta, Zeta and Alpha with Sigma being the base trim level. While prices will be out on January 13 at the launch in Delhi, we expect the car to provide some stiff competition to the likes of the Hyundai Grand i10 and such.
