Maruti recently launched the facelifted Baleno and is now preparing to introduce the refreshed Wagon R soon. Our sources suggest the facelifted Wagon R will be sold in four trims: LXi, VXi, ZXi, and ZXi+ (new).

The 2022 Wagon R will be available in new dual-tone paint options (likely with a blacked-out roof) and will also get alloy wheels in its top-spec variants. It will likely get new paint schemes as seen on new Maruti models including the facelifted Baleno and second-gen Celerio. Apart from these, Maruti has also slightly tweaked the front grille of the Wagon R.

With this update, Maruti is expected to provide a revised fabric upholstery for the Wagon R. However, features such as the 7-inch touchscreen system, steering-mounted audio and calling controls, and keyless entry will be retained. In terms of safety, the Wagon R could now get seatbelt pretensioners and force limiters as standard. Its AMT variants are also expected to come with hill-hold assist.

Another update will come in the form of the new 1-litre DualJet three-pot petrol engine (67PS/89Nm). Maruti will also provide the hatch with the Baleno’s 1.2-litre DualJet petrol unit making 90PS and 113Nm. Both these engines are equipped with idle engine start/stop tech and come with a standard 5-speed manual ’box and an optional 5-speed AMT. And like the outgoing model, a CNG kit will likely be available on the base-spec LXi trim.
