Maruti Suzuki has given its flagship SUV a refresh for 2025, and the new Grand Vitara now starts at Rs. 11.42 lakh (ex-showroom). With this update, the company has rolled out significant safety and feature upgrades across the board, while also introducing a new variant – the Delta+ in strong hybrid form, priced at Rs. 16.99 lakh (ex-showroom).
Let’s take a closer look at what’s new in the updated Grand Vitara and how it stacks up in its segment.
Variants
The 2025 Grand Vitara is available in four primary variants – Sigma, Delta, Zeta, and Alpha. The newly launched Delta+ variant is available with the strong hybrid powertrain, bridging the gap between affordability and hybrid efficiency.
This revised variant lineup now gives buyers more flexibility, especially those considering a hybrid without jumping straight to the top-spec models.
Safety
Perhaps the most notable change is the enhanced safety package. Maruti Suzuki has made six airbags standard across all variants of the Grand Vitara. In addition, every trim now comes with a host of other safety technologies such as:
- Electronic Stability Program (ESP)
- Hill Hold Assist
- Front and Rear Disc Brakes
- Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD)
- Three-point Seatbelts for all passengers
- ISOFIX child seat anchors
This move brings the Grand Vitara closer in line with global safety expectations, which has been a growing concern among Indian car buyers.
Features
Apart from the safety boost, the 2025 Grand Vitara also gets several new comfort and convenience features across the range. Some of the notable additions include:
| Feature | Availability Highlights |
|---|---|
| Eight-way Powered Driver Seat | Likely in top variants |
| Electronic Parking Brake | For automatic versions |
| Air Purifier with PM 2.5 Display | New addition for better in-cabin air quality |
| LED Cabin Lamps | Improved cabin ambience |
| Rear Sun Blinds | Added passenger comfort |
| New 17-inch Alloy Wheels | Sportier and refreshed exterior look |
These additions make the Grand Vitara feel more premium and practical, especially for those eyeing it as a family SUV with both city and highway duties in mind.
Powertrain
There are no changes to the existing engine options. The Grand Vitara continues with:
- A 1.5-litre mild-hybrid petrol engine (paired with manual and automatic gearboxes)
- A 1.5-litre strong hybrid petrol engine (for better fuel economy and smoother performance)
With the launch of the Delta+ hybrid variant, Maruti Suzuki has made hybrid tech more accessible. This should help further strengthen the appeal of the Grand Vitara in the mid-size SUV segment, especially among buyers looking for better mileage and lower emissions.
Brand Vision
Speaking about the update, Partho Banerjee, Senior Executive Officer, Marketing and Sales at Maruti Suzuki, said that the company is committed to listening to customers and evolving its offerings. He highlighted that by making safety a priority and adding new features, Maruti is not only refreshing its lineup but also staying true to its customer-first approach.
The 2025 Grand Vitara packs more value than before, especially with its upgraded safety package and added creature comforts. The introduction of the Delta+ hybrid also means buyers now have a wider hybrid range to choose from, without going all the way to the top-end variants.
If you’re looking for a mid-size SUV that balances affordability, comfort, efficiency, and safety, the updated Grand Vitara makes a compelling case.
