Where Does It Fit Best?
Whether it’s daily office commutes in Delhi or weekend family drives in rural Gujarat, WagonR 2025 continues to thrive on diverse terrains. Thanks to its improved suspension calibration and high ground clearance (170 mm), it’s tailor-made for:
- Urban traffic navigation with tighter turning radius (4.7 m)
- Rural or uneven roads with minimal underbody contact
- Hilly terrain now aided by Hill Hold Assist (ZXi AMT)
The AMT gearbox, combined with city-friendly dynamics, makes it an ideal car for new drivers, city dwellers, and elder family members alike.
Design Language: Practical with Personality
While the iconic tall-boy silhouette remains, the 2025 WagonR gets a design polish to stay fresh without losing its identity.
- Front fascia gets a sleeker chrome-accented grille
- Refreshed bumper design with sharper air intakes
- LED DRLs now integrated within projector-style halogen headlamps
- New dual-tone alloy wheels (on ZXi+ trims)
- Subtle tail-lamp redesign and high-mounted stop lamp
The overall look now feels more cohesive, bold, and ready for 2025—while still maintaining the no-nonsense attitude the WagonR is loved for.
Ride Quality & Comfort: Enhanced for All-Season Travel
Step inside and you’ll instantly feel the changes. Improved seat cushioning, new dual-tone dashboard, and better insulation make the cabin quieter and more comfortable.
- Rear seat thigh support improved for long rides
- AC performance fine-tuned for faster cooling
- Front-row armrest (available in ZXi+)
- Flat floor in the rear for easier 3-person seating
- Rear seat recline angle adjusted slightly for better comfort
Combined with tall headroom and large windows, the cabin feels airy, open, and genuinely relaxing during city or highway commutes.
Engine Refinement & Driving Power
WagonR 2025 continues with its proven and reliable engine options, tuned further for lower NVH and better drivability:
Engine | Type | Power | Torque | Gearbox Options |
1.0L | K10C Petrol | 66 PS | 89 Nm | 5MT / AMT |
1.2L | K12N Petrol | 90 PS | 113 Nm | 5MT / AMT |
1.0L | CNG (S-CNG) | 57 PS | 82 Nm | 5MT only |
Engine mounts and gear ratios have been tweaked to offer better low-end torque and reduced shift shocks in AMT models. The 1.2L engine, particularly, now feels smoother with refined mid-range punch.
Fuel Efficiency: Still the King of KMPL
Mileage is what WagonR has always banked on—and the 2025 version is no different. Here are the official ARAI-certified fuel economy figures:
- 1.0L Petrol MT – 25.19 kmpl
- 1.0L Petrol AMT – 24.35 kmpl
- 1.2L Petrol MT – 24.43 kmpl
- 1.2L AMT – 24.09 kmpl
- CNG Variant – 34.05 km/kg
With real-world figures staying close to claimed numbers, the WagonR 2025 offers one of the best fuel economy records in its class.
