The top variant includes a dual-tone exterior with a floating roof and black alloy wheels. On the Zxi+ versions, this dual-tone feature is only available in the red and grey variations.

This model also offers the anti-lock braking system (ABS) with electronic braking force distribution (EBD) as well as rear parking sensors and dual airbags. More importantly, the AMT trims now have the hill-hold assist option.
The Wagon R is available with two powertrains that are also available with the newest edition. A 1.0-L petrol engine with 66 bhp and 89 Nm of torque, optimized to deliver 56 bhp while on CNG.
While the 1.2-liter naturally aspirated petrol engine that produces 89 bhp and 113 Nm of torque is the second engine option. The gearbox options include a five-speed manual and a five-speed automatic manual transmission (AMT).
