The sporty, yet sophisticated stance of the all-new Barina exudes self confidence. Barina boasts a muscular appearance with a wide stance, sculpted body panels and dynamic proportions. Its 5-door body has a coupe-like profile with aggressive shoulder lines and concealed rear door handles. Rounded, exposed head and taillights give the front and rear fascia a three-dimensional, sporty appearance with its dynamic proportions carried through the high beltline, sweeping roofline and integrated rear spoiler.

Barina's compact dimensions conceal a spacious and edgy interior complete with motorcycle-inspired instrument panel and multiple storage pockets. It's modern interior design and spacious layout is enhanced by an array of convenience features, including...

...Bluetooth phone and audio streaming, USB input with iPod connectivity, cruise control and steering wheel audio controls.

With performance to match its good looks, the all-new Barina is equipped with a responsive 1.6-litre 4-cylinder petrol engine equipped with a 16-valve cylinder head with dual overhead camshafts and variable valve timing. It comes mated to a 5-speed manual transmission or optional 6-speed automatic.
