Maruti Suzuki dealerships have started taking bookings for the Vitara Brezza facelift for an amount of Rs 11,000. The refreshed model comes with a set of new LED projector headlamps, new chrome grille, revised bumper and LED fog lamps. It also gets new 16-inch machined alloys and LED taillights. While the cabin layout hasn’t changed much, Maruti Suzuki is offering new upholstery for the seats and there’s also a leather wrapped steering wheel on offer.
As a part of the lifecycle update, the new Vitara Brezza also comes loaded with an auto-dimming IRVM and a SmartPlay Studio infotainment system. Under the hood, it is powered by a 1.5-litre K15B petrol motor that puts out 103bhp and 138Nm of peak torque. It is coupled to a five-speed manual gearbox or a four-speed torque converter automatic.
Compared to the diesel Vitara Brezza, which has been discontinued now, the petrol version is expected to be launched at a lower price point. We expect the Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza to start at around Rs 7 lakhs (ex-showroom).
