Maruti Suzuki has improved the safety of its most popular SUV, the Brezza, by making six airbags standard across all variants. With this update, the compact SUV offers better protection for occupants. However, this update comes at a cost, as Maruti Suzuki has also introduced a price hike of up to Rs 20,000, making the SUV cost between Rs 8.54 lakh and Rs 14.14 lakh (ex-showroom). Until now, six airbags were limited to Brezza’s top-end ZXi+ variant.

Furthermore, the higher-spec trims also features a 360-degree camera setup, reverse camera, and auto day/night IRVM.

Powering the Brezza is a 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine (103PS/137Nm), which can also be had with a factory-fitted CNG kit. Here’s a look at their specifications: –
| Engine | 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol | 1.5-litre petrol+CNG |
| Max Power | 103 PS | 88 PS |
| Peak Torque | 137 Nm | 121.5 Nm |
| Gearbox Options | 5-speed Manual, 6-speed torque converter automatic | Engine |
| Claimed Mileage | 19.18kmpl (Manual) / 20.15kmpl (Auto) | 25.51 km/kg |
Before the new-gen Dzire underwent crash testing, the Brezza was regarded as Maruti’s safest model, earning a 4-star safety rating from Global NCAP in 2018 (based on older testing parameters). With the latest safety upgrade, the Brezza now stands a strong chance of securing a 5-star safety rating. Currently, the Tata Nexon, Mahindra XUV 3XO and Skoda Kylaq are the only 5-star-rated cars in the segment.
