Yes difference in suspension is there between pre-facelift and the facelift one, I noted at once when I moved to altis 1.6 2017 facelift from pre-facelift then upgraded to grande. Handling has improved while little compromise on the comfort. I think it is good as previous one was too soft, a Jhoola feel can be observed in pre-facelift one while facelift feel more planted on the road.
