FactThe modern Ignis quietly pays tribute to the past: its vent motifs echo the 1977 Suzuki Cervo SS20.
The second-generation Ignis, a crossover city car, was previewed as the Suzuki iM-4 concept at the 85th Geneva International Motor Show in March 2015, exhibited in production form at the 44th Tokyo Motor Show on 30 October 2015, and launched in the Japanese market on 21 January 2016. It is powered by the 1.25-litre K12C inline-four in a standard petrol form and a mild hybrid with a 3Ah lithium-ion battery under the front passenger seat, and it references styling from the 1977 Suzuki Cervo SS20. The Indian-spec car, sold as the Maruti Suzuki Ignis through the NEXA dealerships as a replacement for the Ritz, was offered with a 1.2-litre K12M and, until 2018, a diesel. The car was facelifted in 2020, and from mid-2020 the European-spec Ignis received the 1.2-litre K12D Dualjet mild hybrid as its standard engine.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.
