Based on the GPiX Concept which was introduced at the 2008 São Paulo Auto Show,[1][2] the Agile went on sale in 2009[3] and competes with the Volkswagen Fox and similar models.

Based on the early '90s Opel Corsa B, the Agile was produced only as a 5-door hatchback; unlike the similar designed Chevrolet Celta, which was offered with 3-door and 4-door sedan configurations.

This redesign slightly affected the interior, which received a multifunction steering wheel (LTZ version only), new upholstery and subtle changes to the dashboard.

The rear was altered too, with a reflective bumpers and contact areas for parking markers in black plastic were added.

In addition to offering ABS brakes and double front airbags as standard equipment, no structural modifications were made despite being classified as unstable after the crash test carried out in the past by LatinNcap.
