We informed you earlier that Maruti Suzuki will launch 8 new SUVs in the country before the end of this decade. The company will adopt multi-powertrain strategy, and will introduce new cars with petrol, CNG, hybrid and flex-fuel engines. Moreover, MSIL has already announced to introduce 4 new electric vehicles by 2030.

Maruti Suzuki is yet to reveal the fine details on its upcoming SUV range. Interestingly, the company is not giving up on small cars and is preparing an all-new micro SUV. Likely to be launched in 2026-27, the new Maruti micro SUV will slot below the Brezza and will rival the Tata Punch and Hyundai Exter.

The new micro SUV is likely to be offered with petrol and CNG fuel options. Moreover, Maruti Suzuki is developing an all-new affordable hybrid powertrain for its mass-market cars. The Fronx facelift will be the first model to get the new hybrid engine, which will use the 1.2L 3-cylinder NA petrol engine. The same powertrain could be offered with upcoming micro SUV.

Maruti Suzuki is also looking at a premium SUV segment to achieve its ambitious target of 50% market share. The company is likely to launch a premium midsize SUV and an all-new 7-seater SUV. The new 7-seater SUV will rival the likes of the Mahindra XUV700 and Tata Safari.
