Maruti Suzuki has launched the 2026 Brezza at Rs 7.40 lakh (ex-showroom), marking the compact SUV’s first comprehensive update in four years and finally adding a turbo-petrol engine to a lineup that previously only offered naturally aspirated power. The new 1.0-litre Boosterjet turbo makes 110hp and 170Nm, while the existing 1.5-litre petrol carries on with an underbody-mounted CNG kit borrowed from the Victoris, freeing up boot space compared to before. This matters because the Brezza goes up against the Hyundai Venue, Tata Nexon, Mahindra XUV 3XO, Kia Sonet and Syros with a genuinely stronger engine option than it had before. Here’s what your money actually gets across powertrain, design and features.
