Maruti Suzuki Wagon R Review

Maruti Suzuki Wagon R Exterior And Interior Design

The new Maruti Wagon R (2019) has a neat and improved design language compared to its previous model. The popular Indian hatchback retains its unique `tall boy` design, but in a bigger and loaded package. At the front, the grille gets a subtle chrome treatment while the bumper houses larger air dams. The headlamps have a black backing and go really well with the overall design.

Coming to the side of the new Wagon R, the profile is noticeably longer and taller. The 14-inch wheels are small and there is no alloy-wheel option.

The Maruti Wagon R`s rear is uninspiring compared to other angles and showcases a minimal approach. Unlike the previous Wagon R, the new model lacks a roof spoiler as well.

The 2019 Wagon R comes with dual-tone interiors. The dashboard layout is well-designed and ergonomic. Silver elements further add to the overall interior aesthetics.

Maruti Suzuki Wagon R Engine And Performance

The 2019 Maruti Wagon R is available only in a petrol format, but with two engine choices: 1.0-litre and 1.2-litre. The smaller 1.0-litre engine makes 67bhp and 90Nm of torque while the bigger 1.2-litre unit produces 90bhp and 113Nm.

The engines come mated to a five-speed manual transmission as standard. Select variants can also be opted with the brand`s AGS AMT unit.

Put together, the new Maruti Wagon R showcases ideal driving characteristics for Indian road conditions. Besides being bigger than before, the 2019 Wagon R is lighter due to its HEARTECT platform.
