Brezza was Maruti’s answer to Hyundai’s Creta, and indeed, the underdog was able to take over a good amount of market share from Creta’s grasp.

However, this will change after the 31st of March 2020 when Maruti Suzuki will only sell petrol cars abiding by the BS6 norms.
A facelift of Brezza is currently in the work and is expected to launch in the first quarter of 2020. The new Brezza will be powered by a 1.5-litre BS-VI petrol engine that currently powers the facelifted Ciaz and Ertiga.
Maruti’s brand name along with good pricing, engine and features makes Brezza is one of top SUV in India under 15 lakhs, and a worthy investment in the long run.
