Based on Suzuki’s Global C Platform
The new Maruti Suzuki Victoris (Escudo) SUV will be based on Suzuki’s Global C platform that also underpins the Grand Vitara and Brezza. It was initially planned as a 7-seater SUV; however, Maruti tweaked its plans after understanding the rising demand for 5-seater SUVs in market. The new SUV will be longer than the Grand Vitara. It could be based on a slightly longer wheelbase, which translates to bigger boot and improved space in second-row.

The previous spy images suggest that the new SUV will have an all-new dashboard layout and new interior scheme. It will have a larger and vertically placed touchscreen infotainment unit, which is likely to support wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
In terms of features, the SUV could get a panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats, and a digital driver’s display. For safety and security, the SUV is likely to get six airbags, ESC, a 360-degree camera and ADAS tech.
