The dashboard of the Japan spec Wagon R is different from that of the Indian car.

The JDM Wagon R is available in two variants, a regular model and a Stingray (a bit more comprehensively detailed variant than the recently launched Indian Stingray). The interior of the Japanese model is completely different from the Indian spec car.

The duo is powered by a 660cc petrol engine that complies with kei car norms. The engine is available in normally aspirated and turbocharged guises producing 52bhp and 64bhp respectively.

As you know, the Wagon R is loved in India too. The hatchback has been consistently maintaining its spot in the top three best selling cars in India for several months now.
