Apart from that, it gets dual-front airbags, ABS with EBD, speed alert system, and a reverse parking camera with sensors.
The 2020 Maruti Suzuki Ignis is powered by a BS6-compliant 1.2-liter petrol engine which comes mated to a 5-speed manual or an automatic gearbox. The unit is capable of producing 83PS of maximum power and 113Nm of peak torque.
