Powering the Exter is a 1.2-litre naturally-aspirated engine that is available in both petrol and CNG guises. It makes 83 bhp with 114 Nm of peak torque in the petrol variants and 69 bhp with 95.2 Nm of max torque in the CNG models. Transmission options include a 5-speed manual or 5-speed AMT. Do note that the CNG variants are available with the manual gearbox option only.
The Exter rivals the likes of the Tata Punch, Citroen C3 Aircross, and the Maruti Suzuki Ignis. Compared to the three, it has the most impressive feature list.
