Maruti Suzuki Clean Energy Vehicle Leadership Strengthens With New Brezza

Maruti Suzuki Strengthens Position In India's Clean Mobility Segment

Maruti Suzuki India continues to strengthen its Maruti Suzuki Clean Energy Vehicle Leadership as the country's largest passenger vehicle manufacturer maintains a 54% market share in clean energy vehicles, including CNG, hybrid and electric vehicles. Partho Banerjee, Senior Executive Officer, Marketing & Sales, Maruti Suzuki India, stated that the company remains the market leader in clean and green vehicles across India. The automaker expects the refreshed Brezza to further improve its position through expanded cleaner powertrain offerings.

The updated Brezza has been developed around three major customer requirements, including improved low-end torque for urban driving, enhanced power for highway performance and an underbody CNG option for customers seeking cleaner mobility without compromising driving capability. Maruti Suzuki India has focused on practical customer expectations rather than only technical specifications, as research indicates buyers are increasingly evaluating vehicles based on real-world performance, comfort and everyday usability.

Refreshed Brezza Targets Growing Compact SUV Demand

Customer feedback collected by the company showed that buyers were less focused on figures such as horsepower and torque and more interested in how vehicles perform during daily usage. The introduction of an underbody CNG variant is expected to support Maruti Suzuki India's leadership in clean energy vehicles, supported by its broad CNG portfolio. The company believes this approach will help attract customers looking for affordable and efficient mobility solutions while maintaining performance standards across different driving conditions.

The compact SUV segment remains a major growth opportunity for Maruti Suzuki India, with SUVs contributing around 57-58% of the passenger vehicle market in India. Compact SUVs represent approximately 30% of the overall SUV segment, creating significant potential for the refreshed Brezza. The company expects improved production availability and additional manufacturing support from its new Kharkhoda facility to help address supply limitations affecting multiple models.

Production Capacity And New Powertrain Options Support Growth

Brezza sales have remained broadly stable at around 15,000 units per month, although production constraints previously limited the company's ability to fully meet market demand. With increased manufacturing capacity and the introduction of turbo-petrol and underbody CNG variants, Maruti Suzuki India expects the refreshed Brezza to strengthen its position in the compact SUV category. The company also aims to consolidate its broader clean mobility leadership as demand for efficient powertrain technologies continues to grow among Indian vehicle buyers.
