Camouflaged Maruti Suzuki Brezza spotted testing in India

A heavily camouflaged test vehicle of the Maruti Suzuki Brezza has been spotted on Indian roads. This development comes shortly after the company introduced the 2026 facelift of the compact SUV. While the exterior design appears to retain the familiar silhouette and lighting elements of the current model, the presence of the test mule suggests that further updates are in development.

Industry speculation points to potential powertrain enhancements. Maruti Suzuki recently showcased several new technologies at a briefing in Japan, including a 1.2-liter hybrid system and turbocharged petrol engines. The 1.2-liter Z12E hybrid unit features a 0.6 kWh battery and two electric motors, with the engine producing 80 bhp and 108 Nm of torque, while the traction motor adds 87 bhp. Other possibilities include an E85-compatible engine or the integration of an affordable Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) across the lineup.

The Brezza is also positioned below the Suzuki Victoris (Rs 54.99 lakh – Rs 98.29 lakh) and the Suzuki Grand Vitara (Rs 58.99 lakh – Rs 102.29 lakh).

Maruti Suzuki has not confirmed the purpose of this test vehicle or provided a timeline for any future updates to the Brezza. The company has yet to announce if or when these potential technologies will reach the production model.
