New Delhi. Maruti Brezza is counted among the most popular compact SUV cars of India. Earlier this car was sold under the name Vitara Brezza. Then the company launched another car named Grand Vitara and now it is sold only under the name Brezza. Now the company is going to launch this car in a new avatar. This car is already quite popular in the market. Now to capitalize on its popularity and attract new buyers, the company is going to update it.
Spot occurred during testing
A heavily camouflaged test mule of Maruti Brezza has been caught on camera, which is believed to be a facelifted variant coming in 2026. There is a CNG sticker on the rear windshield of the prototype, which confirms that the model being tested will be equipped with CNG.
Underbody CNG Fuel Tank
According to media reports, the new 2026 Maruti Brezza facelift is likely to have the underbody CNG tank layout, which was recently introduced in the Maruti Victoris. This setup frees up boot space.
Level 2 ADAS
Interestingly, the new 2026 Maruti Brezza facelift is likely to get a major safety upgrade in the form of a Level 2 ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) suite. Existing safety features will also be upgraded which include 6 airbags, hill hold assist, electronic stability program, ABS with EBD, brake assist, traction control system, ISOFIX child seat anchors, three-point seatbelts for all seats, seatbelt reminder, rear parking sensors, impact sensing door unlock, adjustable rear headrests and three-point ELR rear center seatbelt.
what else is new?
The new Maruti Brezza 2026 facelift may see minor design changes such as redesigned alloy wheels and new LED taillamps borrowed from the Victoris. Inside, the SUV may get updated trims and upholstery, a new cabin theme and a new Victoris-like steering wheel.
Engine and Gearbox
No change is expected in Brezza in this matter. The 2026 Maruti Brezza may have a 1.5L naturally aspirated petrol engine, which produces 103bhp power and 137Nm torque. Transmission options also remain unchanged – i.e. 5-speed manual and 6-speed torque converter automatic.
Vitara Brezza 2016
Maruti Brezza was first introduced as the Vitara Brezza in 2016, and became an instant hit due to its SUV-design, great powertrains and aggressive pricing. The subcompact SUV got a major facelift in 2020, followed by a generational upgrade in 2022, when it dropped the “Vitara” prefix. The second-gen model brought significantly improved styling, several new features and a new 1.5L K15C DualJet petrol engine with mild hybrid technology.
