Maruti Suzuki has made waves in the Indian automobile market with a launch that blends affordability, practicality, and efficiency. The brand’s newest release is an ultra-budget 7-seater priced at just ₹3.25 lakh (ex-showroom). Designed with families and shared mobility in mind, this compact MPV offers impressive space without straining your wallet.
Boasting a mileage of 30 KM/L, it promises big savings for daily commuters, large families, and rideshare operators who want a cost-effective and reliable vehicle.
Compact Outside, Spacious Inside
Built on a compact MPV platform, this 7-seater is easy to handle in traffic while still offering comfortable seating for seven passengers. Despite its small exterior, it manages to provide:
- Three rows of seating
- Foldable third row for extra luggage capacity
- Ample headroom and legroom in the middle row
- Sliding seats for adjustable space
This smart design makes it just as practical for family road trips, school pick-ups, or even small-scale business use.
Mileage That Surprises – 30 KM/L
One of the biggest talking points is its class-leading fuel efficiency. With a mileage of 30 KM/L, it beats many smaller cars and even rivals some motorcycles in running cost savings.
Perfect for budget-focused buyers, especially in smaller towns, the car will be offered in both petrol and CNG variants for even lower fuel expenses.
Engine & Driving Experience
While the focus is on fuel efficiency, Maruti has ensured it has enough power for everyday driving. Buyers can choose between:
- A 1.0L or 1.2L engine (depending on variant)
- 5-speed manual gearbox for traditional driving
- Optional AMT for effortless city commutes
- Good low-end torque for smooth acceleration in traffic
It’s not designed for high-speed thrills but is perfect for daily city drives and occasional highway trips.
Features & Interiors
For its price, this new Maruti packs in a solid list of essentials:
- Power steering and power windows (mid & top trims)
- Dual airbags and ABS with EBD for safety
- Optional touchscreen infotainment in higher variants
- Rear parking sensors
- Air conditioning with rear vents for all passengers
The interiors are simple yet functional, offering multiple storage spaces and cup holders to make every trip more convenient.
Pricing & Variants
With a starting price of ₹3.25 lakh, it ranks among the most affordable 7-seaters in India. Maruti will offer three trims – base, mid, and top – with prices going up to ₹4.99 lakh for the fully loaded model.
Finance options include:
- EMIs starting from ₹3,500/month
- Zero down payment offers for select buyers
- Exchange bonuses for existing Maruti owners
This makes it a perfect upgrade for two-wheeler owners or first-time car buyers who want space and comfort on a budget.
Final Verdict
With its 7-passenger capacity, 30 KM/L mileage, and ultra-low price, Maruti’s latest 7-seater is ready to make a big impact in the entry-level MPV segment.
Whether you’re a growing family, a rideshare driver, or someone in need of an economical people carrier, this new Maruti proves that big space and low costs can come in one compact, affordable package.
