Maruti To Boost Sales With New Brezza

Mumbai:Maruti Suzuki is betting high on pushing sales volume on its updated compact SUV Brezza priced aggressively affordable at Rs 7.40 lakh in a price conscious world's third biggest car market.

"We have given more torque, more power and underbody CNG kit to give more luggage space to attract young buyers," Partho Banerjee, Senior executive officer, marketing and sales, told Financial Chronicle at the sidelines of the launch on Friday.

He said at present Brezza was selling more than 15,000 units per month with a total market size of 4 lakh units monthly and this compact SUV segment was gaining sales momentum.

In fact, the launch of the 2026 facelifted Brezza marks the major update for this second-generation model introduced in 2022.

"There is a strong demand for compact SUVs in the country," Banerjee noted. About 3.97 lakh units of compact SUVs were sold in India in Q1 2027, growing 24 per cent year on year and Maruti is looking to capitalize on this segment with its new Brezza.

Its competitors are popular Tata Nexon, Tata Punch and Hyundai Creta, among others.
