The new Rio gets a completely new front with redesigned headlamps, a more aggressive triple-slat grille and a modern looking bumper fitted with a new set of fog-lamps. The rear didn't go through much changes, but it features redesigned taillights with integrated reverse lamps and a slightly upgraded bumper. Called as T200, the Rio facelift now comes with a better quality interiors. The cabin has now received a revised dashboard, and the plastic quality is improved a lot. The upgraded cabin now looks much modern and now features a dual-tone interiors. The newly formulated centre console with redesigned AC vents and functional controls making it bit more appealing.
It is to be notice that Premier sourced most of its car ingredients from Zotye to make the Rio SUV, this clearly indicating that it would not be a big problem for the Indian auto-major to launch this facelifted version to the Indian automotive market.
