Maruti Suzuki has launched a new premium SUV for 2025 that combines the bold, upmarket design cues of luxury SUVs like the Range Rover with the efficiency and practicality the brand is known for. While not a direct Range Rover model, the vehicle aims to deliver a refined driving experience at a price point accessible to a wider range of buyers in India.
Premium-Inspired Design
The 2025 SUV stands out with a muscular front fascia featuring a wide grille, LED daytime running lights, sharp headlamps, and a high bonnet line. These elements create a strong road presence, reminiscent of higher-end luxury models.
From the side, blacked-out pillars, sculpted body lines, and large alloy wheels give the SUV a sporty yet sophisticated profile. At the rear, sleek tail lamps, a clean boot design, and a neatly integrated spoiler complete the look. New dual-tone paint options and metallic shades further enhance the premium appeal.
Balanced Performance for City and Highway
Under the hood, the SUV is powered by a 1.5-litre petrol engine producing approximately 102 bhp and 135 Nm of torque. The setup offers smooth acceleration, making it well-suited for city commutes. Maruti’s mild hybrid technology with auto start-stop helps conserve fuel in traffic, while transmission options include a 5-speed manual and an automatic variant.
Although not designed for serious off-road use, the suspension and handling deliver comfort on both urban roads and longer highway journeys.
Modern Features and Connectivity
Maruti Suzuki has equipped the SUV with a 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system supporting Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and voice commands. Additional features include connected car technology, wireless charging, automatic climate control, and push-button start.
Impressive Fuel Efficiency
Despite its SUV size and bold styling, the 2025 model offers competitive fuel economy. The manual version delivers around 20–21 km/l in real-world driving, while the automatic achieves close to 18 km/l, depending on conditions.
Pricing and Variants
The new SUV is available in multiple trims, catering to different budget levels. Prices start at approximately ₹10.5 lakh (ex-showroom) for the base variant, with the fully loaded hybrid model priced around ₹14.5 lakh.
With its blend of premium styling, strong features, and efficient performance, Maruti Suzuki’s latest SUV positions itself as an attractive option for buyers seeking a taste of luxury without stretching to luxury-segment prices.
