Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza facelift

The 2022 Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza is a product that receives more than just a mere cosmetic update. Courtesy of leaked images, we already know that the model will get a heavy update in terms of features and specifications, such as a new six-speed torque converter automatic unit with paddle shifters, an electric sunroof, six airbags, cruise control, and much more. The new sub-four metre SUV was recently spotted undisguised, and you can read all about it here.

Hyundai Venue facelift

Ready to give competition to the new Maruti Suzuki Brezza (yes, it is likely to drop the Vitara moniker) is Hyundai’s facelifted Venue. Apart from a range of cosmetic updates and feature additions, the Korean brand is said to be working on an N Line variant of the model as well. The Venue N Line was recently spotted testing in India, and to read all about it, click here.
