Nearly four years after its second-generation debut, Maruti Suzuki has rolled out the first mid-life facelift of the Brezza, and it’s a bigger update than it looks on the surface. Under the skin, the SUV gets a punchier turbo-petrol engine option, a longer features list, and a sharper starting price. Launched on July 24, 2026 at Rs 7.40 lakh (ex-showroom), here’s a complete breakdown of everything that’s new.

Variants & Pricing
The new Brezza continues in four trims — LXi, VXi, ZXi, and ZXi+ — with prices starting from Rs 7.40 lakh. Maruti is yet to release the full variant-wise price breakup at the time of launch, but this starting price is nearly a lakh lower than before, largely thanks to the new turbo engine attracting a lower GST slab.
Exterior: Subtle but Sharper
Maruti Suzuki hasn’t reinvented the Brezza’s design language — it’s kept the boxy, practical silhouette and simply sharpened a few details:
- Reprofiled chrome grille up front
- Reworked bumper with triangular fog lamp surrounds, a silver garnish on the lower air dam, and a new silver skid plate
- Same boxy side profile with thick body cladding, silver roof rails, and blacked-out pillars for the “floating roof” look
- Sharper-designed 16-inch alloy wheels
- Rear is nearly unchanged, save for a larger silver skid plate on the bumper
Dimensions: 3,995mm (L) x 1,790mm (W) x 1,685mm (H, with roof rails), 2,500mm wheelbase
Colour Options
Seven shades are on offer, including two new additions:
- Pearl Arctic White
- Sizzling Red
- Bluish Black
- Vivacious Orange (New)
- Magma Grey
- Lustrous Beige (New)
- Splendid Silver
Red, Beige, and White also get an optional dual-tone roof (black) on select variants for a sportier look.
Interior: Small Details, Bigger Feel
The layout stays familiar — upright dashboard, brown insert, slim AC vents, three-spoke steering wheel — but a few upgrades lift the cabin’s premium feel:
- New brown leatherette seat upholstery
- Redesigned climate control panel
- Gloss-black steering wheel insert (was silver earlier)
- Sliding front centre armrest with storage
- Cooled glovebox
- Winged headrests for rear passengers
- Bigger touchscreen, though the analogue instrument cluster with MID carries over
What's New on the Features List
- Ventilated front seats
- Larger 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system
- 64-colour ambient lighting
- PM2.5 cabin air filter with AQI display
These join existing kit like a single-pane sunroof, wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, a wireless phone charger, automatic climate control, a head-up display, a 6-speaker ARKAMYS sound system, cruise control, and connected car tech.
What’s still missing: A panoramic sunroof, digital instrument cluster, a more premium audio setup, and a power-adjustable driver seat — features that several rivals in this segment already offer.
Safety: A Meaningful Upgrade
The existing safety kit continues — 6 airbags, hill hold assist, ESC, ISOFIX anchors, a 360-degree camera, and rear parking sensors. The real upgrade is in what’s been added:
- Front parking sensors
- Level 1 ADAS features: blind spot warning, rear cross-traffic alert, emergency stop signal, safe exit warning
- Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
The new Brezza has also earned a 5-star Bharat NCAP rating for both adult and child occupant protection, putting it alongside rivals like the Nexon, Venue, Kylaq, and Syros on safety credentials.
Powertrain: The Real Headline
This facelift’s biggest talking point is under the hood — three engine options, including an all-new turbo-petrol unit, plus an upgraded 6-speed manual and a smarter underbody CNG setup.

The CNG version now uses an underbody dual-cylinder kit (shared with the Victoris) instead of a boot-mounted tank, freeing up cargo space — a genuinely useful practical upgrade for CNG buyers.
Rivals
The Brezza continues to fight in one of India’s most competitive segments, going up against the Hyundai Venue, Tata Nexon, Kia Sonet, Kia Syros, Mahindra XUV 3XO, Skoda Kylaq, Maruti Fronx, Toyota Taisor, Renault Kiger, and Nissan Magnite. With the new turbo engine, added ADAS features, and a lower starting price, Maruti has clearly aimed this update at closing the gap with its more feature-rich Korean and European rivals.
What This Means for Existing Brezza Owners
With over 14 lakh units sold since 2016, the Brezza has one of the largest ownership bases in India’s compact SUV segment — and that population only grows with this facelift. Whether it’s the outgoing K15B-powered version or the new turbo-petrol Brezza, genuine OEM spare parts remain essential for keeping these SUVs running reliably for years.
At Assurer, we export genuine OEM Maruti Suzuki spare parts — from body panels to engine and suspension components — to distributors and workshops across the Middle East, Africa, and Southeast Asia, covering both current and previous-generation Brezza models.
