Maruti Suzuki S-Cross might be launched in early 2015

The vehicle features conventional styling all around with the front getting LED daytime-running lamps (DRLs), black body cladding and 16-inch alloy wheels spicing up its looks. It is rumoured Maruti might spruce up its looks further for the Indian car market and add more equipment and a two-tone shade.

In the safety front, the car comes equipped with seven airbags, Electronic Stability Control (ESC), ABS with Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist System (BAS). These features will be a standard fare on the top-end models.

Maruti’s big ticket launch, the Celerio, managed to grab all the attention and this vehicle wasn’t noticed much. It was earlier rumoured that the car will be launched in 2014, but Maruti may not do it as the Ciaz sedan set to replace the SX4 will make its market entry this year. 

 

The S-Cross at 4,300mm won’t qualify for the excise sops and will be more expensive than the Ford EcoSport. It will rather go up against the Renault Duster and is expected to cost around Rs 12-13 lakh.
