Major updates will be introduced in the form of a new K12N DualJet unit. Not only will it deliver more power than the outgoing 1.2-litre four-cylinder K12M engine, it will also benefit from idle start-stop tech for a better economy. The transmission option will include the familiar 5-speed manual and 5-speed AMT gearbox units.
As far as pricing goes, expect a hike of somewhere close to ₹15,000- ₹20,000, depending on the variant. It will continue to rival the likes of the new Ford Figo and Hyundai Grand i10 Nios.
