    The introduction of the dual-cylinder technology has resulted in a price hike of Rs 7,000 for both the Exter S CNG and SX CNG variants. The CNG version also receives the recently launched Knight edition treatment, priced at Rs 9.38 lakh.

    The Exter CNG makes use of the same 1.2-litre, four-cylinder petrol engine as the standard car, but on CNG, its output is 69hp and 95.2Nm. The Exter CNG can only be had with a 5-speed manual gearbox, and claimed efficiency is 27.1km/kg.
