The second phase of the BS6 emissions standards will go into effect on April 1, 2023. With this in mind, all manufacturers are updating their vehicles, and Maruti Suzuki recently launched the 2023 RDE compliant Ignis.
Maruti Suzuki Ignis: Safety features
The Electronic Stability Program (ESP) and Hill-Hold Assist are two new safety features introduced by Maruti Suzuki in the 2023 Ignis. Aside from that, the hatchback has twin airbags, an anti-lock braking system (ABS), and ISOFIX child seat mounts. All of these features are standard on the Ignis 2023. The Maruti Suzuki hatchback will remain available in four trim levels: Sigma, Delta, Zeta, and Alpha.
The Ignis continues to offer a 7-inch infotainment touch screen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, steering mounted controls, start/stop ignition button, automatic climate control, auto ORVMs and tilt steering.
