Two variants, named as W6 and W8, are available for the European country and safety features like Airbags, ABS, EBD, ESP, ISOFIX mounts, Hill Start Assist and Hill Descent Control all come installed in the car.
The 2.2-litre mHawk diesel engine and a 6-speed manual gearbox remains common between the Indian and Italian variants. The new element in this vehicle is a petrol engine, which is being developed exclusively for the international market.
The front facade of the car has got a reworked grille with headlamps now displaying more fine details. On the inside the car has new dashboard color theme, which complemented by the seat fabrics and updated center console, gives the car an elegant look.
