Wearing the new automatic headlamps, new front grille, fog lamps, new front bumper and ORVMs with integrated turn indicators, the new Beat facelift appears to be sportier, stylish and more outgoing than its previous model.

The 2014 Beat facelift looks very familiar inside, but is definitely more up-market than before. The hatchback comes equipped with several new features such as Chevrolet's MyLink touch radio system, a full-size USB port instead of the mini USB port, redesigned central console, high-quality seat upholstery and more. It features ABS with EDB, airbags, seat belts and various other safety measures.
The new Beat facelift comes powered with the 1.2-litre petrol and 0.9-litre diesel, which also power the existing model. The 1.2-litre, 1199cc, four cylinder, 16 valve, DOCH petrol engine produces a peak power output of 79 bhp with 108 Nm of torque. The Euro-IV compliant engine is combined with a five-speed manual transmission.
The company will also bring in an automatic transmission gearbox version of the car.
