Regarding the price, guys at Nexa kept pushing me to buy the left over stock of the SCross. They had 1 alpha and 3 zeta 1.3 SCross' available and confirmed that no new orders are accepted for the existing 1.3 and 1.6 models. Only thing they were insisting was that the upcoming model would be 70-100K costlier than the existing one.

How sure is your RM of the facelifted S-Cross being available in 1.6? Only asking because I was on the verge of finalising the current-gen 1.6 and am holding off due to the facelift.

I'm completely with zero belief on those guys regarding any info they give. I've made the booking just because they were accepting it and dint want to be standing in line if in case the 1.6 actually becomes available again.
Regarding your dilemma, thats a really tricky situation. But for sure, they had no 1.6 stocks ready and nor were they taking new orders. So basically we are now left with no choice but to wait and keep our fingers crossed.

Why don't you try and do the booking with the condition that final decision to be taken upon launch? If 1.6 launched in facelift, then you get that. Else you have the option to buy the existing 1.6. You might need to push for this though.

This uncertainty will be the end of me!

Will try to push the NEXA guys for taking the facelift 1.6 booking and hope & pray that Maruti graces us enthusiasts with it!

Selected dealers in Bangalore are taking bookings for the face-lift S Cross. Kalyani Nexa is one of them, though no variant details are known yet.

[nagateja]

Exactly! Enquired 3 out of many nexa outlets in hyderabad, only Gachibowli one is accepting the bookings. Dont know about the rest. On interaction with senior RM, he says they have no information of 1.6 being discontinued. He doesn't confirm its further availability either.

[Dr.Naren]

The training for S-Cross face-lift is scheduled next month. We will get to know more details by then from our friendly RM's . As of now even they have no idea about 1.6.

2017 Maruti S-Cross facelift launch is speculated on 30th August.

The 2017 Maruti S-Cross facelift will see some cosmetic changes and some additional features too. There won’t be a 1.6-litre diesel engine. Yes the S-Cross will only get a 1.3-litre diesel engine.

My friend has booked an 1.3 Delta last week and is getting delivery this Sunday.

Should I advise him to cancel his booking for the outgoing model and go for the face-lifted one instead?

Maruti always does training for both sales and service guys at least one month before the launch. I guess MS would just unveil the car on 30th. Well that's the present trend across all the manufacturers

Connected with Nexa outlets in Mumbai. They are currently not accepting bookings for the new S-Cross.

Spoke to the RM, she mentioned that they are still trying to get more info on the launch date and acceptance of booking for the facelift model. They have not received any directive from Maruti yet.

They have no clue on the engine and transmission as well.

30th August as the launch date seems a bit far fetched. If there are huge inventories for old model outstanding, I am sure Maruti will give at least one month to all its dealers to clear them.

If not, we could see Maruti unveil new S-Cross like Tata Nexon with actual launch towards end of September or first week of October

If his choice is 1.3 he can definitely wait. Only if he likes to pay extra bit of cash and bear chrome overload on the face!

You're right, only Jayabheri is accepting the others are clueless, I paid the initial amount for existing model, I got around 60k discount. I'll wait for day or two to decide.

New face lift has few minor changes, I guess for Delta there won't be much, except for front grill, rear tail lamp, and the new one will be costlier by 20-30k easily. See if he can squeeze more discounts on the existing one and if he's happy the current design then that would be a killer deal.

He has got discount of Rs. 60,000. Now I am not sure how good or bad is this discount by s-cross standards.
