Maruti Suzuki will retain the current 1.5-litre K15B four-cylinder petrol engine that generates a maximum power of 105 PS. It will come with a new SHVS mild-hybrid system too. The current mild-hybrid system will be upgraded to a new 48V that will make the all-new Vitara Brezza even more fuel-efficient. We can expect to get a five-speed manual and a four-speed automatic transmission with the car as well.

We may also get to see the all-new Vitara Brezza selling through the Toyota channels in India. Since it will be an all-new car, Toyota may step in to design certain elements in their own way to provide a distinctive identity to the car. However, the model sharing is yet to be confirmed by any of the manufacturers. Currently, Maruti Suzuki supplies the Baleno, Ertiga and Vitara Brezza to Toyota.

Maruti Suzuki will launch a slew of cars in the Indian market including the new Baleno facelift, all-new Vitara Brezza, Jimny, new Maruti Suzuki Alto 800 and a new Creta-rivalling SUV too.
