Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza 2016-2020 Review

The Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza is currently the bestselling sub-compact SUV in India. Available only with a 1.3-litre diesel engine with both, 5-speed manual and automated manual transmissions, it is an efficient and easy to drive small SUV that also has good driving dynamics when you want to have some fun.

It’s not the most premium car in term of overall quality, but has a decently loaded features list and a cabin that can seat five quite comfortably with adequate boot space for the family too. As of now, the Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza is a diesel only model, with no word on when the petrol Brezza will be introduced.

Exterior

As far as the looks are concerned, the only difference in the 2018 update are the black alloy wheels, which are now available in the Z and Z+ variants. They replace the older gray ones but the shape and size remains the same. In our opinion, the black ones do look better. Also, this orange colour is a new addition, replacing the older blue. 

Maruti Vitara Brezza

Then there is the chrome strip on top of the license plate, which was earlier available only in the top end variant but is now available across the range. 

Everything else like the boxy SUV shape, LED light guides, floating roof design and the large glass area which made the Brezza a hit in the first place is still the same.

Over to the side, you’d instantly notice the floating roof effect Maruti is trying to pull off. The A, B and C pillars are blacked out, thereby giving the impression that the roof ‘floats’ over the car. There’s a fair bit of part sharing you’ll notice too. For e.g: the outside mirrors and the door handles are the exact same ones found on the Swift / Dzire / Ertiga. 

Maruti Vitara Brezza

Boot space is rated at a respectable 328 litres. Compare that within the Maruti Suzuki stable and you find that the new Wagon R (341 litres), Baleno (339 litres) and S-Cross (353 litres) all offer more but standalone, it’s still adequate room for suitcases and large bags. Compared to its rivals, it’s weaker than the Tata Nexon (350 litres) and Ford EcoSport (346 litres), but better than the XUV300 (260 litres).

%bootComparision%

Interior

Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza

Inside, again, things remain exactly the same. You get a neat looking all-black dashboard with the SmartPlay infotainment system. It supports Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and MirrorLink. You further get bluetooth, AUX and USB connectivity as well. In this top variant, you also get 6 speakers and the audio quality, though a little bass heavy, is impressive.

Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza

You sit in a commanding position, one of the advantages of the Vitara Brezza. But as the advantages stand as they were, so do the niggles. The plastic quality and the textures feels cheap and the overall interior quality does not feel premium. In the AMT variant, you further lose out on cruise control, a feature which is present in the manual variant.

Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza

As a part of the 2018 update, Maruti has removed the ‘optional’ variants from the lineup. You now get safety features like dual airbags, ABS with EBD, ISOFIX child seat mounts, rear parking sensors and seat belts with pretensioners and load limiters as standard in all variants. 

The biggest change in the AMT variants is the AMT gear shifter. It's simple to use and you can push the lever to the left to get into manual mode. 

Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza

Safety

All variants of the Vitara Brezza get dual airbags, anti-lock brakes and electronic brake-force distribution and reverse parking sensors as standard. The range-topping ZDi+ gets reverse parking camera as well. Overall, the SUV does have a good safety package; one that earned it a 4-star rating in the global NCAP crash tests. However, rivals like the XUV300 have upped the game with features like seven airbags, front parking sensors and adjustable headrests for all five occupants, and we hope Maruti Suzuki follows suit.  

Performance

Engine and performance

Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza

No modifications have been made to the 1.3-litre DDiS200 diesel engine. It still makes 90PS of max power and 200Nm of peak torque. It continues to suffer from turbo lag below 2,000rpm and delivers good performance beyond that, till about 4500rpm. What the AMT transmission does is reduce the effect of the turbo lag. 

The gearbox does not shift the gears too often, be it up or down. Also, it hold the revs in lower gears to keep the car in the meat of the powerband. As a result, you get a smooth ride without worrying about getting the revs up. Even for overtakes, the gearbox downshifts only when the throttle action is sudden and strong, otherwise it keeps the car in the same gear to complete the manoeuvre. On highways, the change from 4th to 5th gear can barely be felt, and the car clocks miles happily. 

Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza

The throttle response has been dialed back a little. As a result, you will have to provide more input to get noticeable performance. Gear shifts are smooth, as long as you are gentle with the throttle. If you like to drive fast in traffic, it's better to shift to the manual mode and control the shifts yourself.

But the act of the gearbox holding revs has taken a bit of a toll on the efficiency. Where the manual returned a mileage of 21kmpl in the city in our tests, the AMT returned 17.6kmpl. Even on the highway, the efficiency went down by around 5kmpl, to 20.9kmpl. But even these figures are well ahead of the competition and even on its own, they are nothing short of impressive.

Overall, the AMT has been tuned for city use and because the gearbox keeps you in the powerband for most of the time, driving the AMT feels even better than the manual! 

Ride and handling

Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza

The Vitara Brezza has always had a stiff ride. Though it feels like the stiffness has been reduced a bit now, it still transmits the vibes from broken roads and potholes to inside the cabin. Especially when you are driving slow, the undulations of the surface can be felt inside the cabin quite easily. Going over bumps a little faster does take the sting out a bit.

This ride gets better on the highways and the body roll, especially considering the boxy shape, remains well under control. The ride remains stable even at speeds close to 120kmph. 

The steering is light to turn and it’s a breeze to use in the city. On the highways, it does weigh up but the feel remains a little lacking. Even the brakes are well tuned and the action is progressive and predictable

Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza

Variants

The VDi (o) variant offers you the most bang for your buck! This compact SUV is offered in six variants namely LDi, LDi (O), VDi, VDi (O), ZDi and ZDi +. Going further into the details, the range topper ZDi+ gets best-in-class features like cruise control, SmartPlay infotainment system along with inbuilt- navigation. 

Verdict

The Vitara Brezza is one of the last compact SUVs to get an automatic transmission. But, though Maruti is late to the party, they have done it right. The AMT has been tuned beautifully for city use. It keeps you in the powerband to avoid turbo lag and doesn't change the gears too often to give you a smooth ride experience. Not to forget the conventional SUV looks and the super efficient engine which keep it the best selling SUV of the country.

There are still some drawbacks to the Vitara Brezza though. Maruti could have gone a little softer with the suspension to offer a plusher ride, which would have made it an even better urban package. The stiff ride, tacky plastics and the lack of a petrol variant still hold it back.

Now, though, with the convenience offered by the AMT, the Brezza presents an even stronger case for itself. And because the AMT makes the performance more usable in the city, we'd recommend it over the manual as well.

Pros & Cons of Maruti Vitara Brezza 2016-2020

85

Things We Like

  • Feature loaded: comes with features like Android Auto and CarPlay integration, cruise control, projector headlamps, auto climate control
  • A well proportionate, understated and mature styling makes the Vitara Brezza likeable for the majority of buyers
  • A high ground clearance of 198mm is at par with even bigger SUVs such as the Creta
  • Plenty of customisation options through Maruti's iCreate allows buyers to deck up their SUV in numerous ways
  • Powered by a tried and tested diesel engine that is fuel efficient too
  • Safety features like dual airbags, ABS with EBD, ISOFIX seat mounts and rear parking sensors are now available on all the variants.
  • Despite being a diesel-only offering, the Brezza is priced at par with petrol-powered rivals

Things We Don't Like

  • Maruti Suzuki could have added more features to the Brezza given the fact that the Maruti Suzuki Baleno, which is priced below the Brezza, gets features such as bi-xenon headlamps, auto-dimming inside rearview mirror, and leather-wrapped steering wheel
  • Interior quality does not feel upto the mark as the competition, and the hard plastics hold it back from feeling premium.
  • The absence of a petrol engine is arguably the Vitara Brezza’s biggest drawback and it is heightened further with the fact petrol offerings are getting back in the game
  • The ride of the Vitara Brezza is set up on the stiffer side. Broken roads and potholes are filtered through to the cabin, especially while driving slow.
CarDekho Experts:
Attractive pricing, features and efficiency make the Vitara Brezza a practical compact SUV. There's still no petrol engine but the AMT adds convenience to everyday drives
