The new Maruti Suzuki Ignis is the second product to be built on the Baleno platform and has an extremely unconventional design. While we have discussed the design in detail, the flat body styling gives it the aggressive and masculine appearance, while the accentuated wheel arches, short overhangs squared headlamps and a sharp C-pillar lend a butch appeal to the micro SUV.
