The car is powered by a 1.0-litre naturally-aspirated inline-3 engine that produces 69 PS of max power and 90 Nm of peak torque, the same as the previous BSIV-compliant model. There are two transmission options available for the car, a 5-speed manual and a 5-speed AMT (or AGS - Auto Gear Shift - as Maruti likes to call it). The same engine and transmission combo are found in the Celerio and S-Presso.
