Maruti Suzuki released a sketch of the Vitara Brezza earlier this month and according to some reports, it might be launched as soon as a month after the Auto Expo. The Vitara Brezza project has been completely undertaken by Maruti’s engineers in India, sans the involvement of Suzuki, its parent company. Code-named the YBA, it was spotted in India on various occasions in an un-camouflaged state.
Rivals to the Vitara Brezza would be the Ford Ecosport, the Mahindra TUV 300 and an upcoming sub-4 metre SUV from Hyundai. The Vitara Brezza would be positioned below the S-cross in the Maruti line-up.
Powering the Vitara Brezza would be a 1.3 litre diesel engine sourced from Fiat while the petrol variants would include a 1.4 litre and a 1.2 litre engine. Transmission duties would be performed by a 5 speed manual transmission. Expected to join in later through the vehicle’s life cycle is a CVT transmission and a SHVS micro-hybrid engine.
Stay tuned to Motoroids as we bring you the debut of the Vitara Brezza apart from the various other launches live from the Auto Expo.
In the meantime, let us know what you feel about this upcoming sub- 4 metre compact sedan from the house of Maruti through the comments section below.
Suzuki has a habit of launching new vehicles in incomplete form in India, which puts off potential customers. Eg. Models with Turbo -petrol engine or the CVT will come much later when the customer has already moved on to other brands. Why dont' they launch a model with all the bells and whistles in one go.
