Most Fuel Efficient Maruti Suzuki Cars 2025

Maruti Suzuki is a carmaker especially known for one thing - fuel efficiency. Even though the carmaker has dropped diesel engines from its lineup and no electric vehicle yet, it continues to offer petrol, hybrids and CNG powertrains in its vehicles. 

We bring to you seven cars from Maruti that pack exceptional value for money and are extremely fuel-efficient at the same time that you can consider. 

List of Most Fuel Efficient Maruti Suzuki Cars

1. Celerio

Slotted above the S Presso, the Maruti Suzuki Celerio is a five-seater hatchback with a best-in-class mileage figure. With the Celerio there are eight variants on offer from LXi to ZXi+. CNG comes with the VXi trim only and has a mileage of 34.43 kilometres. Equipment on offer is decent and automatic transmission (AGS) available which is a segment first, claims Maruti.

With only a 1-litre petrol engine shared across the variants, prices for the Celerio start at Rs. 5.36 lakh. VXi CNG model at Rs. 6.73 lakh is pricier by Rs. 11,000 than the ZXi AGS, while the range-topping ZXi+ comes at Rs. 7.10 lakh, ex-showroom.

2. Wagon R

The Wagon R needs no introduction and is available in 11 variants and two engines, 1-litre and 1.2-litre petrol. Both mills can be paired to a manual or automatic transmission but the smaller engine does not get the ZXi line of trims, unlike its elder sibling. Since CNG is exclusively available with the smaller engine, you can get it with LXi and VXi variants only. 

Prices of the trims coming with the 1-litre motor are from Rs. 5.54 lakh to Rs. 6.89 lakh. For the bigger 1.2-litre engine, you will have to pay Rs. 7.38 lakh (ZXi+ AT dual tone). The top-selling VXi CNG comes at an ex-showroom price of Rs. 6.89 lakh.

3. Alto K10

Maruti’s entry-level hatchback, the Maruti Suzuki Alto K10 is the most affordable offering from the Japanese carmaker. Available with a 1-litre engine (which makes 66 hp, 89 Nm), mileages are 24.39 km/l and 33.85 km/kg for petrol and CNG variants, respectively. 

If fuel efficiency concerns you, go with CNG. The only catch is that you can only buy the CNG car with a manual transmission, prices of which start at Rs. 5.74 lakh. Its VXi S CNG model is available for Rs. 5.96 lakh, an increment of only Rs. 22,000. We recommend that you go with this variant as the premium is justified.

Extremely popular in the commercial sector for its punchy performance and fuel efficiency, the Maruti Suzuki Dzire (earlier Swift DZire) has carved a niche for itself in the sub-compact sedan segment. An update to the sedan has been pending for a long time and we may see a couple of changes, including under the hood. 

Maruti sells the Dzire in petrol (up to 22.61 kmpl) and CNG (31.12 kmpl) variants, prices of which start at Rs. 6.57 lakh and Rs. 8.44 lakh, going all the way up to Rs. 9.39 lakh and Rs. 9.12 lakh, ex-showroom, respectively. Expect an on-road price of Rs. 10.48 lakh for the top-end Dzire in Delhi.

Engine options on this one are limited to a K-Series 1.2-litre petrol engine that has been doing duty in other Maruti cars and makes about 89 hp and 113 Nm mated to either a manual or automatic transmission. 

Price ranges are as follows: Petrol (Rs. 6.66 lakh - Rs. 9.88 lakh) and CNG (Rs. 8.40 lakh - Rs. 9.33 lakh).

6. Grand Vitara

Maruti’s largest SUV on sale, the Grand Vitara comes with three powertrain options, namely Mild Hybrid, Strong Hybrid and CNG. Only the former can be mated to both a manual and automatic transmission while the others only get a manual gearbox. Talking about the engine, there are two 1.5-litre naturally aspirated engines, including one sourced from Toyota which gives out a maximum mileage of 27.97 kilometres in a litre. 

Prices for mild hybrid, strong hybrid and CNG variants are in the ranges of Rs. 10.87 lakh - Rs. 17.13 lakh, Rs. 18.31 lakh to Rs. 19.97 lakh and Rs. 13.11 lakh to 14.92 lakh, respectively.

7. New Swift

Recently launched fourth-generation New Swift has entered the domestic market and comes with a thorough lot of technological upgrades. Unlike its predecessor, it is now powered by a 1.2-litre, three-cylinder engine which makes upwards of 80 hp and nearly 112 Nm torque. Notably, the same block is mated to a mild hybrid system overseas which the India-spec car misses out on.
