Tomorrow, Maruti is all set to launch the new Brezza with updated looks, new features and an even more powerful turbo-petrol engine. One of the brand’s most popular products in India, this will be the first major update to the second-generation SUV, designed to keep it relevant among new competitors. While most of the changes to the Brezza have already leaked online, all that’s left to know is the price, and here’s our guess at how much it could cost you:
Maruti Brezza 2026 facelift: expected price list
Maruti is expected to offer the Brezza in 4 broad variants: LXI, VXI, ZXI and ZXI Plus. Apart from the current car’s 1.5-litre petrol engine, leaks have now emerged that confirm the addition of a new turbo-petrol powertrain, which is likely to be the same 1-litre unit as the Fronx. To take a closer look at the base version of LXI, check out this article detailing the leaked specifications.
With this smaller engine, the SUV will be able to qualify for lower GST, which could make its pricing significantly more competitive than the current version. Given this fact, we expect its price to be as follows:
Option | NA Gasoline | NA Petrol with CNG | Turbo petrol with mild hybrid | |
MT | IN | MT | MT | |
LXI | 8.49 lakhs | – | 9.40 lakhs | 7.99 lakhs |
VXI | 9.49 lakhs | 10.85 lakhs | 10.40 lakhs | 8.99 lakhs |
ZXI | 10.69 lakhs | 12.20 lakhs | 11.60 lakhs | 9.99 lakh |
ZXI Plus | 11.80 lakhs | 13.40 lakhs | – | 10.99 lakhs |
All prices are ex-showroom.
For reference, the current Brezza is priced between Rs 8.28 lakh and Rs 12.88 lakh (ex-showroom).
Features and Security
From details confirmed by leaks, we know that the new Brezza will see several additions to its list of features such as ventilated seats, ambient lighting and an infotainment system with a large 10.1-inch touchscreen. Other features that could be carried over from the current car include automatic climate control, single-pane sunroof, wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay system, wireless phone charger, auto-dimming IRVM, cruise control and connected car technology.
For safety purposes, it will add front parking sensors, but will retain equipment such as 6 airbags, Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Hill Hill Assist (HHA), ISOFIX child seat anchors, reverse parking sensors and a 360-degree camera.
Powertrain options
The new Brezza is likely to be powered by the same 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine with either a manual or automatic transmission as the existing car, although its CNG version is likely to feature a twin-cylinder engine under the body like the Victoris. It will also be available with a new turbo-petrol engine. Here are the expected specifications of the new Brezza:
Engine | 1.5 liter naturally aspirated petrol engine with mild hybrid. | 1.5-liter naturally aspirated petrol engine running on compressed natural gas. | 1-litre turbo-petrol engine with mild hybrid |
Power | 103 hp | 88 hp | 100 PS |

Transmission of infection | 5-speed manual/6-speed manual/6-speed automatic | 5-speed manual transmission | 6-speed manual transmission |
MT – manual transmission, AT – automatic transmission (torque converter)
Notably, the leaked images also show a 6-speed manual transmission, although it is unknown if it will be offered exclusively and with which engine.
