- The entry-level LXI variant of the new 2022 Maruti Brezza is quite expensive than the segment-leading Hyundai Venue, Tata Nexon, and Kia Sonet.
- Thanks to the smaller displacement 1.0-liter, 3-cylinder, naturally aspirated petrol engine, the Nissan Magnite and Renault Kiger are the most affordable SUVs of the lot.
- The most expensive entry-level variant is that of the Toyota Urban Cruiser. However, it is worth noting that it is quite feature-rich compared to other cars (almost on par with their mid-spec trims).
- Talking about the automatic variants, the pricing of Brezza’s VXI AT trim is on par with the Venue’s S(O) Turbo DCT variant, which offers more power and a sportier transmission. Renault Kiger’s RTX AMT trim is the most affordable automatic variant of all.
- The Kia Sonet is the most expensive car in the segment; however, you get a lot of premium features in return for the high price.
- Talking about the engine options, the new Brezza comes with a 1.5-litre petrol engine (103PS/137Nm), whereas the Kia Sonet and Hyundai Venue get two engine options: 1.2-liter naturally aspirated petrol (83PS/114Nm) and 1.0-liter turbo-petrol (120PS/172Nm).
