Several car manufacturers have commenced rolling out updated powertrains that are BS6 2 compliant. Now, according to our sources, Maruti Suzuki will soon be upgrading its 1.2-litre petrol engine to be compliant with BS6 Phase 2 and RDE norms.

With the exception of the Ignis, all models are equipped with idle start/stop technology as standard on all variants. The same mill is also offered as a CNG variant with the Swift, Baleno and Dzire with a five-speed manual transmission.
