Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara will be offered as the flagship model from the brand in India. It is a premium mid-size SUV which will compete with the likes of Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Skoda Kushaq and Volkswagen Taigun. By now we all know that, this is an SUV which was jointly developed by Toyota and Maruti. Toyota earlier this month unveiled the Urban Cruiser Hyryder SUV and Grand Vitara is actually Maruti’s version of Hyryder.

The teaser video released by Nexa shows a different front-end styling for Grand Vitara when compared with Hyryder. It looks like the Grand Vitara will get a much more aggressive or muscular styling at the front. Front grille gets a plastic panel which is similar to the one seen on the new Brezza. Below that is a wide and deep grille which adds to the overall SUV look of the car. The teaser also shows triple LED headlamps on the SUV. Unlike Toyota Hyryder, Grand Vitara is not getting a twin sleek LED DRL unit. The design of the LED DRL unit looks familiar to the one seen in the new generation Baleno.

The projector LED headlamp is placed on the bumper. A large Suzuki logo is placed in the centre of the grille. The front grille is expected to get a gloss black finish for a premium and sporty look. The front bumper of the Grand Vitara also gets a muscular look. The side profile of the SUV will looks similar to Hyryder but the the rear design will be slightly different. Grand Vitara will get LED tail lamps and LED reflector lamps extending to the tail gate. The reverse parking lamps and turn indicators will be placed on the bumper like Hyryder.

Both Toyota Hyryder and Maruti Grand Vitara will be manufactured by Toyota at their Bidadi plant in Karanataka. The SUV will offer features like ventilated seats, leather upholstery, premium looking cabin, touchscreen infotainment system, HUD, wireless phone charging, digital instrument cluster, panoramic sunroof and so on. The Grand Vitara will be offered with two petrol engine options. One of them would offer a strong hybrid system while the other would get a mild hybrid system. The strong hybrid version will come with a 1.5 litre TNGA Atkinson Cycle engine (92 Ps & 122 Nm). This engine is paired with an electric motor (79 Ps & 141 Nm ). The mild hybrid version of Grand Vitara will be powered by a 1.5 litre K15C petrol engine from Suzuki which generates 103 Ps and 137 Nm of peak torque.
