There has been a deluge of spy photos of the WagonR stingray (unfortunately we don’t have any) on the net. Some say it will be a limited-edition model and that it will be available in the festal season. However, we beg to disagree. while Maruti is nonetheless to investigate the ray or about its official launch date, dealers ar jubilantly telling prospective customers that the WagonR stingray launch is close at hand. Some, in an exceedingly bid to make sure customers don’t re-examine to rival camps, even say that the WagonR stingray can keep company with a diesel engine and — most notably — not the ever-present decree Multijet, however a brand new 800cc unit. we will currently lay rest to those rumours.
2013 Maruti WagonR stingray
The WagonR stingray, for starters, isn’t a limited-edition variant or sticker job. the actual fact that dealers ar being trained to sell this new vehicle is proof that it is a substantially totally different vehicle. Second, as appears to be the fashion of late, the ray won't replace the prevailing WagonR – which is is currently being sold at a discount of Rs 30,000. it will be positioned higher than the present WagonR, very similar to the Grand-i10, Indica-Vista and Micra- Active. there will be three variants on supply, Lxi, Vxi and Vxi (o). The Vxi (o) gets projector headlamps, fog lamps, alloy wheels, a brand new music system, ABS and a driver airbag. On all variants, the stingray can have a chrome grille with totally different headlamps than on the present or soon-to-be recent WagonR model. there will be graphics, even for the bottom lxi trim. The rear lights also will be slightly altered.
Inside the cabin, there might not be an enormous distinction with relevancy the quality of materials used, however there actually are a lot of options. the interior colour scheme is presumably dual-tone. we've got a hunch that the stingray Vxi (o) may keep company with reverse parking sensors. Expect the stingray to continue giving the class-leading house that the WagonR is thought for.
Now to the most important question: can the stingray keep company with a diesel engine? the solution isn't any. Maruti can launch the automotive with a 1.0-litre 68PS K10 engine and 5-speed manual transmission. The stingray can, however, be available only in petrol and in contrast to the older variant, won't be offered in CNG. this will be the USP of the recent WagonR. The rumoured 800cc diesel engine is in the works, and can create its debut around late 2014 or early 2015. prices are proclaimed on launch date, expected to be next week. Expect the stingray to be priced around Rs 45-50,000 quite the recent automotive.
