New Delhi: The Maruti Suzuki Brezza proved its dominance as the top-selling SUV in India throughout the calendar year 2023, surpassing competitors such as the Tata Nexon, Tata Punch, Hyundai Creta, Hyundai Venue, and Mahindra Scorpio.
Maruti Suzuki India, the country’s largest car manufacturer, showcased exceptional sales performance by selling an impressive 170,600 units of the Brezza in CY23. It’s worth noting that even the Swift, another Maruti product, held the title of the best-selling car in India for CY23, with 203,500 units sold.
With a price range of Rs 8.29 lakh to Rs 14.14 lakh (ex-showroom), the Brezza offers customers a compelling choice. However, Maruti recently announced an upcoming price hike across its entire product portfolio in January 2024, potentially affecting the Brezza’s pricing.
Under the hood, the Brezza is equipped with the powerful K15C 1.5-litre petrol engine, providing outputs of 103PS of power and 137Nm of torque, available in both 5-speed manual transmission and 6-speed automatic transmission options. Additionally, there is a CNG variant, delivering 88PS of power and 121Nm of torque, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
As Maruti Suzuki aims to secure the top position in India’s SUV market, the Brezza plays a pivotal role as their volume driver in this segment. Alongside the Brezza, Maruti also offers other noteworthy SUVs such as the Fronx, Jimny, and Grand Vitara.
Furthermore, the Brezza, along with the Baleno and Grand Vitara, is one of the three models chosen by Maruti to participate in the Bharat New Car Assessment Program (Bharat NCAP) testing, underscoring the carmaker’s commitment to ensuring optimal safety in their vehicle lineup.
In summary, the Maruti Suzuki Brezza emerged as India’s best-selling SUV in 2023, with Maruti Suzuki India leading the way in terms of sales. With its impressive performance, wide range of features, appealing pricing, and a keen focus on safety, the Brezza continues to dominate the SUV market, solidifying Maruti Suzuki’s position as a leading automotive brand in India.
