As previously reported, the biggest change comes underneath the bonnet where the 1.6-litre normally aspirated engine makes way for the same 1.4-litre BoosterJet unit employed in the Vitara S, producing 103 kW and 230 Nm of torque. No performance figures were however released.
For now only available with a updated version of the previous model's six-speed manual gearbox, the new Sport also comes in at 80 kg less with a weight of 970 kg, while new underbody changes consist of a fettled suspension, Monroe supplied front and rear shock absorbers, ticker stabiliser bars, single unit wheel hub and bearings, redesigned rear suspension trailing arm and an increase in wheelbase (20 mm) and width (40 mm).
Sitting 15 mm closer to the ground than before and fitted with 17-inch alloy wheels, the Sport falls in-line with previous spy shots in terms of its exterior additions relative to the regular model, while the radically updated interior benefits from a new seven-inch touchscreen display with 3D satellite navigation and Bluetooth, semi-bucket front seats, D-shaped steering wheel and a new boost gauge incorporated into the instrument cluster.
In addition, safety equipment has also been upped with the Sport boasting Lane Departure Warning, Weaving Alert, High Beam Assist, Adaptive Cruise Control, Advance Forward Detection System, Dual Sensor Brake Support, Radar Brake Support, Emergency Stop Signal and six airbags.
