The new designing has been perfectly extended to the rear end as well where the car gets redesigned bumper as well as taillights. The A-Star facelift has gained 70mm in the overall length.
The new version is strictly a mid-life cosmetic uplift as there has been no change done in the drivetrain as the car is still powered by the 1.0L 4-cylinder petrol engine that is capable of producing a peak power of 71bhp and a peak torque of 92Nm.
The engine would again find two transmission options - 5 speed manual and 4 speed automatic. In India, the Maruti A-Star has been recently gratified with a minor uplift; however a facelift won’t do any harm and a launch by Diwali can still be hoped for.
