2026 Maruti Grand Vitara & Toyota Hyryder Facelifts: ADAS, Underbody CNG, and More

Maruti Grand Vitara and Hyryder facelifts launch in 2026 To get LEVEL 2 ADAS and powered tailgate Underbody CNG tank for bigger boot

After introducing the Victoris, Maruti Suzuki is now preparing to launch the Brezza facelift which will get an underbody CNG tank. The company will also give a mid-life update to its NEXA-only Grand Vitara, which will have all the premium features accessible in the Maruti Victoris. Similarly, the Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder will also receive a mid-life update. Both SUVs are likely to be launched before the end of this year.

Top Changes

The new Toyota Hyryder and Maruti Grand Vitara misses out on some key features such as ADAS, premium audio system and others. Both models are likely to be equipped with LEVEL-2 ADAS tech with features like adaptive cruise control, autonomous emergency braking, lane assist, auto high beam and others.

Other big change will be the addition of a powered tailgate with gesture control, which is also available in the Maruti Victoris and the newly launched Tata Sierra. The Grand Vitara and Hyryder facelifts will receive major changes inside the cabin. The dashboard layout will be updated with a bigger 10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment unit and a 10.25-inch digital driver’s display.

The updated models are also likely to get an 8-speaker INIFINITY sound system with Dolby Atmos tech for immersive audio experience. Other features could include an 8-way powered driver’s seat, panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats, and Auto Purify with PM 2.5 display.

The CNG version will come with the underbody CNG tank, which will free up space in the Grand Vitara and Hyryder’s boot. The existing model is criticised for its segment-lowest boot. The petrol-only model has 373-litres of luggage space, which further drops to 265-litres with a hybrid engine. The CNG version offers a space of around 150-litres, which can only carry your small bag packs. Maruti Suzuki has solved this problem with Victoris that has underbody CNG tank and a boot space of around 330-litres.

No Mechanical Changes

The Hyryder and Grand Vitara facelifts will continue to be offered with the existing 1.5L petrol and 1.5L hybrid engine. The petrol version is paired to either a 5-speed manual or a 6-speed torque converter automatic; latter also gets an AWD drivetrain.
