With the launch of new WagonR, Maruti has introduced the efficient feature of Idle Stop and Start. This function allows the car to switch off itself when standing at idle engine condition for a long period of time. To start the car again, the driver can easily press the clutch once and the engine comes alive.

Although, the ISS function shall only be made available in the petrol variants only and not in the bi-fuel CNG variants.

The bi-fuel option of WagonR has always been an evergreen hit among city buyers. May it be commuting to the office or traveling from one city to other, the CNG option in WagonR has helped WagonR to reach the top of the sales charts.

As the outgoing model was equipped with the CNG option only in the base trim i.e. LXi variant; Maruti has taken the customer feedback seriously and worked upon providing more features for the CNG buyers. Hence, the updated car will now be offered with a CNG option in the middle-variant VXi as well.

The VXi variant beholds features such as body-colored door handles, electrically operated ORVMs, double-din music system with Bluetooth connectivity, front fog lamps, all 4-door power windows, center-locking system, etc. These features make the middle variant more uplifted than the base LXi trim. The availability of CNG in the middle trim will lure more buyers to Maruti undoubtedly.
