(Maruti) Suzuki S-Cross facelift photographed up-close

Features a new front fascia.

Here is a close-up image of the (Maruti) Suzuki S-Cross facelift from its manufacturing plant in Hungary. As reported earlier, the official debut of the S-Cross facelift will take place in the coming days, and European and U.K. sales are expected to commence before the end of the year.

The mid-cycle refresh introduces a new face comprising of an upright chrome grille with vertical slats, redesigned projector headlamps and bumper with a larger radiator grille and new foglamp enclosures. From what we can tell, the side and rear end doesn't feature much changes over the outgoing model, save for new alloy rim designs.

Inside, the only changes seen in the leaked image of the facelifted S-Cross are updated instrument cluster dials with new MID, new trim options for the dashboard, updated interior color combinations and seat upholstery with contrast stitching.

The new S-Cross could pack the the all-new 1.4-litre, direct-injection, turbocharged Boosterjet petrol engine sourced from the Suzuki Vitara S, which produces 140 hp and 220 Nm of torque. For markets like the U.K, the diesel variant will continue with the 1.6L diesel engine also offered in the India-spec model. It will likely feature a 6-speed manual or automatic transmissions and Suzuki’s AllGrip AWD system (optional).
