Maruti Suzuki has officially launched the highly anticipated 2025 Grand Vitara, introducing a wave of updates that significantly enhance safety, performance, and convenience. With a starting ex-showroom price of ₹11.42 lakh, the new Grand Vitara reaffirms its position in the mid-size SUV segment, offering more value, technology, and choice for Indian consumers.
From standard six-airbag safety to an expanded hybrid variant lineup, here’s a detailed look at everything new in the 2025 Grand Vitara.
Standard Safety Upgrades Across the Range
Maruti Suzuki has taken a major leap in safety by offering six airbags as standard across all variants of the Grand Vitara. This includes front, side, and curtain airbags—significantly improving passenger protection, especially in top-impact scenarios.
Along with this, several additional safety features are also now standard:
- Electronic Stability Program (ESP) for better control during emergency maneuvers
- Hill Hold Assist to prevent rollback on steep inclines
- ABS with EBD and disc brakes on all four wheels
- Three-point seatbelts for all passengers
- ISOFIX mounts for securing child seats safely
These improvements bring the Grand Vitara in line with global safety expectations and set a new benchmark in the segment.
New Variant: Delta+ Strong Hybrid
A significant addition to the lineup is the introduction of the Delta+ Strong Hybrid variant, priced at ₹16.99 lakh (ex-showroom). This variant makes the benefits of hybrid technology more accessible to a larger audience and positions itself as a more affordable entry point into electrified mobility.
Powered by a 1.5-litre petrol engine paired with an electric motor, the strong hybrid system delivers a combined output of 116 horsepower and promises excellent fuel economy. Mated to an e-CVT transmission, it offers seamless power delivery and low emissions—ideal for city driving and daily commutes.
AWD Now with Automatic Transmission
The Grand Vitara’s All-Wheel Drive (AWD) variant is no longer limited to manual transmission. Maruti Suzuki has now introduced a 6-speed automatic gearbox for the AWD trims, catering to those who want the confidence of all-terrain capability with the ease of automatic driving.
This upgrade significantly improves the Grand Vitara’s appeal among SUV buyers who frequently travel through hilly or uneven terrain, where AWD capability combined with an automatic gearbox adds both performance and comfort.
Upgraded Cabin Features and Premium Comfort
The 2025 Grand Vitara receives several new additions aimed at elevating the in-cabin experience. Some of the notable upgrades include:
- Panoramic Sunroof: Now available as an optional feature on select trims (Zeta (O), Zeta+ (O), Alpha (O), and Alpha+ (O)), offering a premium, open-cabin feel.
- 8-Way Power Adjustable Driver’s Seat: Allows drivers to find their perfect seating position for long journeys.
- Electronic Parking Brake: Offered in automatic variants, enhancing convenience during city driving and parking.
- Air Purifier with PM2.5 Filter and Display: Ensures a cleaner, healthier environment inside the cabin.
- Rear Door Sunshades and LED Cabin Lights: Add a touch of practicality and luxury for rear passengers.
These features show Maruti Suzuki’s intent to make the Grand Vitara a more comfortable and tech-forward offering in the SUV space.
Engine Options: Petrol and Hybrid
The Grand Vitara continues to offer two primary powertrain options:
- 1.5-Litre Petrol Engine
- Output: 103 hp and 137 Nm torque
- Transmission: 5-speed manual or 6-speed automatic
- Suitable for buyers prioritizing simplicity, proven reliability, and lower upfront costs.
- 1.5-Litre Strong Hybrid
- Combined Output: 116 hp
- Transmission: e-CVT
- Offers best-in-class fuel efficiency, reduced tailpipe emissions, and a smoother driving experience.
This dual-engine strategy enables Maruti Suzuki to cater to both traditional buyers and those looking to transition into low-emission mobility.
