New WagonR launched; Prices, Specifications, details and exclusive pictures

April 23rd, 2010

Maruti launched the Second Generation WagonR for India (It is the fourth generation globally) today at a  special ceremony in New Delhi today. This time around, it is not a facelift, but far from it. The new WagonR launched today is based on an all new chassis that features tech like tailor welded blanks and separate sub-frame for the engine and suspension. The new WagonR is also more spacious, powerful and refined but looks a lot like the outgoing version.  Available in three trim levels – Lx, Lxi, Vxi, the prices for which are Rs 3,28,000, Rs 3,58,000 and Rs 3,81,000 respectively, Ex-Showroom Delhi.

We will start our detailed analysis of the new WagonR starting with the Styling. While the WagonR was never a appealing car, it isn’t what you would call ugly either. It has become something regular that you don’t care whether it looks good or not. You are more bothered about the way it serves you. The new WagonR, in our opinion could have sported the nose of the JDM WagonR or even the JDM Stingray version but sadly we dont get them for no reason we can think of. We do understand that this car has a longer front end to accommodate the larger engine but come on Maruti, it could have just been an extension of the nose retaining the JDM front-end. The rear also is nothing to write home about – It resembles the older version with only a chrome finisher for the number plate as the distinguishing feature.

Wheelosphere did exclusive coverage of the new WagonR by scooping a spy picture way back in December 2009. We continued it by briefly covering the history of the model and finally revealing the features with more spy pictures last week. Now, we are the only blog to bring you exclusive hi-res images.
