Bunny Punia Auto Blog India has posted a spyshot of the next-gen Chevrolet Beat testing in Delhi. It's expected to launch in India in early 2017, and will spawn a crossover (Chevrolet Beat Activ) and sub-4m sedan (Chevrolet Beat Essentia) as well.

2017 Chevrolet Beat (facelift) for India
The next gen Beat is expected to launch in India in early 2017, and will spawn a crossover (Beat Activ) and sub-4m sedan (Beat Essentia) as well.

Although the test mule is heavily covered up, Chevrolet has revealed the exterior of the next gen Beat, which is nearly similar to the international-spec Chevrolet Spark. More of a heavy facelift than a next generation, the 2017 Chevrolet Beat gets an updated 2-part grille flanked by large headlamps, chrome embellishment on the grille and headlamps, roof rails, round foglamps, new taillamps and a re-positioned registration plate area.

Changes inside are likely to be limited to a new dual-tone dashboard housing a 7-inch MyLink infotainment system and a revised bike-inspired instrument cluster. Improvements to the build quality as well as materials are also expected.
