Refreshed Exterior Design
The 2026 Brezza holds on to its familiar boxy silhouette but introduces smart cosmetic tweaks to freshen its visual appeal. The front fascia now sports a mildly redesigned grille with elegant gold accents, complemented by an updated bumper featuring new triangular housings for the fog lamps.
Along the sides, the SUV gets fresh dual body cladding and a completely new design for the 16 inch alloy wheels.The rear profile sees minimal changes but includes a tweaked bumper and updated badges to highlight the new powertrai. Buyers can choose from a wide array of colours, including new shades like Vivacious Orange and Lustrous Beige alongside popular dual tone options.
Interior Upgrades and Features
Stepping inside, the cabin layout feels familiar but noticeably more premium.. The dashboard now rocks a black and brown dual tone theme, ditching the older silver inserts for sleek gloss black trim. Maruti Suzuki also redesigned the leatherette upholstery for a richer and more comfortable feel.
Advanced Tech and Safety
The technology package receives a massive boost, making the SUV highly competitive in its segment.
- A new 10.1 inch SmartPlay Pro X touchscreen infotainment system replaces the older 9 inch unit.
- Ventilated front seats and a powered driver seat have been added for maximum comfort.
- Other highlights include a wireless smartphone charger with active cooling, 64 colour ambient lighting, an air purifier, and an electric sunroof.
On the safety front, the Brezza now packs six standard airbags, electronic stability control, and a 360-degree camera. It also introduces advanced safety features like rear cross traffic alert, safe exit warning, and blind spot monitoring, ensuring complete protection for occupants.
Engine and Performance Upgrades
The biggest talking point of this mid life facelift is under the hood. For the very first time, the Brezza gets a 1.0 litre Boosterjet turbo petrol engine that produces 108 BHP and 170 Nm of torque. This performance focused engine is paired exclusively with a six speed manual transmission.
For buyers focused on reliability and efficiency, the familiar 1.5 litre naturally aspirated petrol engine continues to be offered. It makes 102 BHP and 139 Nm of torque, available with either a six speed manual or a six-speed torque converter automatic gearbox. The CNG variant also sees a major practical update. The CNG tank is now underbody mounted, freeing up valuable boot space for luggage.
