On the cosmetic front, Maruti has not made any changes to the Eeco’s utilitarian design with the updated van only seeing the addition of a new Brisk Blue paint shade. Inside, the dashboard gets some tweaks such as a high set hazard light switch atop the centre console, a new steering wheel, and revised rotary-style air-con controls. The instrument cluster too has been updated with a new digital unit similar to the one in the new Alto K10.
