Ignis name is revived by Suzuki
August 11, 2016
Suzuki is reviving another blast from the past with the Ignis name being allocated to the brand’s new compact crossover.
The new-look Ignis will make its debut at next month’s Paris Motor Show before going on sale next January.
Like the new Baleno hatchback – which Suzuki launched a few months ago and brought back a name it last used almost 20 years ago – the Ignis will have a hybrid powertrain for added economy as well as lightweight underpinnings for the body.
The last time an Ignis featured in the Suzuki range was eight years ago when the name was used on a medium-sized hatchback which was on sale in Britain from 2003 to 2008.
Suzuki will also be revealing a revised version of the SX4 S-Cross at the show, which boasts a striking new front grille and other styling revisions.
