Maruti Suzuki India Limited has introduced six airbags to the WagonR, which is expected to improve the vehicle's safety features. The WagonR has been the top-selling car in the Indian market for the last four consecutive financial years.
What are the safety features of the Maruti Suzuki WagonR?
The WagonR is built on the Heartect platform, utilizing high tensile steel for enhanced durability. It comes with a range of safety features, such as an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) paired with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD), an Electronic Stability Program (ESP), and Hill Hold Assist.
What are the specifications of the Maruti Suzuki WagonR?
The WagonR features a choice of a 1.0-litre petrol engine, a 1.2-litre petrol engine, and a CNG powertrain. The 1.0-litre engine produces around 65 bhp and 89 Nm of torque, while the CNG version offers lower outputs of 56 bhp and 82 Nm. In comparison, the 1.2-litre engine provides 88 bhp and 113 Nm of torque. Both petrol engines can be equipped with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a 5-speed AMT, whereas the CNG variant is available solely with a manual transmission. Maruti has noted that the CNG powertrain is the most popular choice among customers.
What are the features of the Maruti Suzuki WagonR?
The Maruti Suzuki WagonR features 60:40 split seats, a dual-tone interior, tilt steering, a multi-information display, a rear parcel tray, as well as air conditioning and heating. Additionally, it is equipped with a 17.78 cm touchscreen infotainment system that supports both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
During the specified period, the company reported sales of 198,451 units, making the WagonR the best-selling vehicle for four consecutive fiscal years: FY 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025. To date, over 3.37 million units of the WagonR have been sold, with Maruti noting that one in every four customers opts to repurchase this model.
The WagonR is acknowledged as one of the most favored nameplates in the Indian automotive market. It has significantly surpassed competitors such as the Tata Indica, Daewoo Matiz, and Hyundai Santro, all of which have been discontinued. Despite being available in India for 25 years, the WagonR continues to thrive.
Initially, the WagonR faced a lukewarm reception due to its boxy design and overall appearance. However, its spacious interior, fuel efficiency, and dependability ultimately contributed to its rising popularity, solidifying its status as a household name.
