    Chevrolet will launch the new Beat hatchback in India this July. The carmaker had begun testing the Beat late last year. The second-gen Beat (likely to be called Intelli Beat) is a model separate from the all-new Chevrolet Spark unveiled globally, and is an evolution of its predecessor. 

    The new Beat’s design is now more grown up and less edgy and is likely to appeal to more car buyers. This second-gen car, however, continues to offer the passenger-door handle on the pillar  – a trend started by the first-gen Beat, and is now seen the Mahindra KUV100 and the next-gen Maruti Swift that will come to India in 2018.

    The second-gen Beat gets revised styling at the back with the number plate now on the bumper. Also, the tail-lamps are slightly larger than that of the outgoing car and will feature LED inserts.

    The India-spec Beat will be joined by a rugged-looking Beat Activ cross-hatch and a Beat Essentia compact sedan soon after. The carmaker had showcased the Beat Activ and the Essentia at the Auto Expo 2016 last year.

    The market launch of the new Beat was scheduled to take place earlier this year but has been delayed until July. The compact sedan which was expected to be launched in March, will now come to the market after the hatchback.
