Maruti Suzuki has launched the Brezza CNG SUV in India at INR 9.14 lakh (ex-showroom, India). This is the first time the new Brezza gets two fuel options since the diesel-powered Vitara Brezza was discontinued in 2020. The Brezza is so far the only compact SUV in India to offer a CNG powertrain.
Below are the ex-showroom prices for Maruti Suzuki Brezza S-CNG:
LXi – INR 9.14 lakh
VXi – INR 10.49 lakh
ZXi – INR 11.89 lakh
ZXi dual-tone – INR 12.05 lakh
The Brezza CNG is powered by the same 1.5-litre K15C DualJet engine and is only offered with a 5-speed manual gearbox. It produces 101hp and 136Nm in petrol-only mode, however the output dips to 88hp and 121.5Nm in CNG mode. Maruti claims that the Brezza CNG can offer a fuel economy of 25.51km/kg.
Cosmetically, there is no change on the outside and inside the cabin. However, the boot space has been compromised compared to the petrol counterpart to accommodate the CNG tank.
The Brezza CNG comes equipped with a dual-tone dashboard with a 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system and features such as Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, wireless charging, automatic climate control, cruise control and a head-up display to name a few.
