2026 Maruti Brezza Facelift LAUNCHED: Find ALL DETAILS Including Features, Design, Powertrain Specifications And PRICING Here

Nearly four years after introduction, Maruti has launched the first mid-lifecycle facelift of the second-generation Brezza. While on the surface, changes may seem limited, it is under the skin where the SUV now features a more powerful turbo-petrol engine and a host of new equipment. To go along with these, it gets a few exterior tweaks and revised colour options as well. Let’s take a look at the new Brezza in detail:

Variants & Pricing

The updated Brezza is available in a choice of four variants called LXI, VXI, ZXI and ZXI Plus, with prices starting from Rs 7.40 lakh (ex-showroom). The carmaker has not revealed the full pricing of the SUV yet.

Exterior

• With this facelift, Maruti has decided to not make any major changes to the inoffensive design of the Brezza, and instead focus on minor tweaks for a fresher look.

• It retains the flat fascia with simple elements, instead of jumping on the latest design trends.

• In between sits the reprofiled grille finished in chrome, while the bumper also gets reworked with triangular fog lamp surrounds, silver garnish on the lower air dam and a silver skid plate as well.

• The side profile retains the boxy silhouette, thick cladding, silver roof rails and blacked-out pillars for a ‘floating roof’ effect, although the 16-inch alloy wheels feature a sharper design.

• From the rear-end, it will be tough to distinguish the outgoing and new versions of the SUV, with the only noticeable change being a slightly reworked bumper featuring a larger silver skid plate.

Colour Options

The new Brezza can be configured in seven colour options, as follows:

• Pearl Arctic White

• Sizzling Red

• Bluish Black

• Vivacious Orange (NEW)

• Magma Grey

• Lustrous Beige (NEW)

• Splendid Silver

Out of these, the Red, Beige and White shades also get optional dual-tone colour schemes in select variants, which add a black roof to the mix for a sportier feel.

Interior

• Just like the exterior, changes inside the new Brezza also remain minor.

• It retains the upright dashboard layout with a brown insert, slim central AC vents, and a three-spoke steering wheel.

• However, what uplifts the ambience is the new brown coloured leatherette seat upholstery, a new climate control panel, gloss black steering wheel insert (which was silver on outgoing version), a sliding front centre armrest with storage and a cooled glovebox along with winged headrests for rear occupants for a premium feel.

• You also have a larger infotainment touchscreen, although the analogue instrument cluster with MID is retained.

Features

• Maruti has added some useful equipment to the Brezza facelift such as ventilated front seats, a larger 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system, 64-colour ambient lighting and a PM 2.5 filter with AQI display.

• This is in addition to existing features such as a single-pane sunroof, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, wireless phone charger, automatic climate control, heads-up display, 6-speaker ARKAMYS surround sound system, cruise control and connected car tech.

Safety

• In terms of the safety equipment, the SUV continues with 6 airbags, hill hold assist (HHA), electronic stability control (ESC), ISOFIX child seat anchorages, 360-degree camera and rear parking sensors.

• Additions in this department are a lot more substantial with front parking sensors, some Level 1 ADAS functions such as blind spot warning, rear cross traffic alert, emergency stop signal and safe exit warning alongside a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS).

Powertrain

By far the highlight of this facelift is the new underbody dual-cylinder CNG setup, an upgraded 6-speed manual gearbox and a new turbo-petrol powertrain in the Brezza. Here are the specifications of the facelifted SUV:
