Don't miss out on the festive offers this September
The automatic or AMT version of the Maruti Suzuki Ignis' 1.3-litre diesel engine is available in two trim levels - Delta and Zeta - which are the two mid variants, out of the four, of the crossover-like hatchback. The Maruti Suzuki Ignis 1.3 DDiS Zeta diesel AMT, which is the top-spec diesel automatic version, is priced at Rs 7.46 lakh (ex-showroom, New Delhi, as of April 9, 2017).
In terms of features, the Maruti Ignis Zeta diesel automatic carries over the goodies of the Delta trim and comes with a few additional ones from the top-spec, manual-only, Alpha trim. It gets chrome surround for the grille, which is not present in the two base trims. The double-din Bluetooth enabled audio system is carried over from the Delta, but it gets four-speakers instead of two, along with two tweeters. Further, there is passive keyless entry with engine push-button start-stop, along with electrically foldable and adjustable outside rearview mirrors among others. The Zeta automatic trim rides on 15-inch black alloy wheels with 175/65 cross-section tyres.
As far as safety is concerned, all variants of this entry-level Nexa model, including the Ignis Zeta diesel automatic, come with dual-front airbags (driver and front passenger) along with ABS (anti-lock braking system) and EBD (electronic brake-force distribution). Further, the Ignis also comes with child seat anchors and seat belts with pre-tensioners as standard. The Zeta additionally offers a rear washer and wiper along with a defogger. It has rear parking sensors as well.
The Fiat-sourced 1.3-litre DDiS motor in the Ignis' diesel automatic versions is one of the most common engines in Maruti's lineup, like its 1.2-litre K-series petrol engine. The 1,248cc four-cylinder diesel puts out 75PS of max power and 190Nm of peak torque and is mated to a 5-speed AMT (automated manual transmission) in the Maruti Suzuki Ignis 1.3 DDiS Zeta automatic. The ARAI-certified fuel efficiency of the Maruti Ignis diesel Zeta AMT automatic is 26.80kmpl, which is identical to its 5-speed manual counterpart.
The Ignis diesel automatic has no direct rival as such because none of its rivals offer a diesel automatic option.
Maruti Suzuki has introduced the Automatic Gear Shift (AGS) option for the top-end Alpha trim of the Ignis at Rs 7.01 lakh (petrol) and Rs 8.08 lakh (diesel), ex-showroom Delhi. Earlier, the automatic options were only limited to the mid-trims of the Ignis – the Delta and the Zeta.
