The petrol variant comes with features like fog lamps with LED DRLs, rear armrest with integrated cup holder, adjustable headrests for the rear seats and a reverse parking camera. All these features will be available on the diesel model along with a 5-inch touch screen infotainment system, multi-function steering wheel, sunglass holder, front USB charging socket and two-tweeters.

Along with this, the company has discontinued the automatic option on the S diesel variant and now it will be available only on the top-spec model as it is more popular among customers because of the added bells and whistles.
