Maruti Wagon R Latest Updates

Maruti Suzuki has launched the BS6 Wagon R S-CNG in India. The LXI CNG and LXI (O) CNG variants now cost Rs 5.25 lakh and Rs 5.32 lakh respectively, up by Rs 19,000. Maruti claims a fuel economy of 32.52km per kg. The CNG Wagon R’s continuation in the BS6 era is part of the carmaker’s ‘Mission Green Million’ initiative announced at Auto Expo 2020.

Previously, the carmaker had updated the 1.0-litre powertrain to meet BS6 emission norms. It develops 68PS of power and 90Nm of torque, same as the BS4 unit. However, the updated motor now returns 21.79 kmpl, which is a little less than the BS4 unit’s 22.5kmpl claimed figure. Barring the CNG variants, the prices of the Wagon R 1.0-litre have been hiked by Rs 8,000.
