Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza is the likely name that next new car from the brand will carry. Vitara Brezza, codenamed as YBA, is a sub 4 meter offering from the brand and will be directly pitted against the Ford EcoSport challenging it on every front. The return of Vitara badge will help this car to carry a premium image and will qualify it to be retailed through NEXA dealerships. The fresh round of spy shots shows many new details of the car and hints towards impending launch date. This time the car was spotted with palace in the backdrop and that gives rise to a possibility of company shooting its first teaser video.
The photographer has managed to capture YBA from every possible angle. The front fascia is dominated by prominent bumper which houses dual slat honey comb grill and turn indicators sitting above the fog lamps. Front lip spoiler can also be seen here. Headlight assembly takes the least carpet area and manages with projector lamp and secondary halogen unit besides it. One interesting bit revealed in one of the pictures is what is appears to be the air scoop on bonnet. Either company might have added a faux insert in camouflage to mislead and to hide the sculpted hood or we can get to see air scoop in production version too. Side profile is highly dominated by angular lines everywhere and slanting C pillar looks nice. But huge wheel wells spoil the show. But aggressive front face, sharp body lines and proportionate dimensions make Vitara Brezza an aggressive looking new compact SUV.
Tail end is not so clearly visible in the pic, but what we could make out of it is slanting rear windshield and neat and clean tail lamps. On the inside, Vitara Brezza gets painted in all black theme and uses different textures of plastics to add some flare. Expect majority of electronics to be lifted from Baleno or S-cross’ cabin. Summing it up, company has a good package at their disposal in the hottest segment of Indian car market but which needs to placed well. However premium the whole NEXA concept may be for Maruti Suzuki, company has to play well on price front. We expect Vitara Brezza’s price to undercut the EcoSport’s price across the variant lineup. Let’s wait and watch till Auto Expo 2016 for more details.
Cabin with black finishing looks nice. But overall layout look pretty plain and simple.
Slanting C pillar looks nice.
Front is sharp and aggressive – a typical need of any SUV.
