With the mid-cycle refresh, the Maruti Suzuki has discontinued the 1.6-litre DDiS 320 diesel engine. The 1.3-litre DDiS 200 diesel engine producing 66 kW (88.47 hp) at 4,000 rpm and 200 Nm of torque at 1,750 rpm continues as before. The company has, however, made the crossover more efficient by employing Smart Hybrid (mild-hybrid) technology. The S-Cross now features engine auto stop-start, torque assist and brake energy regeneration. The new model has gearshift indicator too. The fuel economy has reportedly increased from 23.65 km/l to 25.1 km/l.
The 2017 Maruti S-Cross should go on sale in India in October, following its unveil tomorrow.
