BS6 has been the buzzword for most of 2019 automotive news and it is justified. If we look at the current market, like any other manufacturer even Maruti is giving their cars cosmetic as well as a mechanical overhaul for BS6 compliancy. The design changes made to the Brezza have been consistent since the first spy-shots were leaked. Starting up front, the 2020 Maruti Vitara Brezza Facelift gets all-new headlamp design with LED filled DRLs. Moving downwards we notice that facelift secures the chrome grille but the front bumper sees some minor tweaks. These tweaks are done to house larger and better fog lights with a freshly added silver chin.

2020 Maruti Vitara Brezza Facelift side profile retains the original shape and hence the current design is carried over. Similarly, at the rear we don’t see any significant alterations either. However, the Brezza will most likely see some new interior add-ons. Some of those interior changes will include, new accents, revised upholstery, and a revamped instrument cluster. With the tightening competition, Maruti is likely to change the Vitara Brezza’s touchscreen infotainment system and load it with more features to rival the current connectivity benchmark car, the Hyundai Venue.

With no concrete news on Maruti’s exit from the diesel-powered cars, the current BS4 compliant 1.3-litre diesel motor will see retirement from the line-up. That will leave the customers with the only option of petrol-powered, 1.5-litre, naturally aspirated, four-cylinder engine. This is the same motor that powers the Ciaz and Ertiga in the Maruti family. The aforementioned engine is already BS6 compliant and churns out 105 bhp and 138 Nm of torque. Manual returns 17.03 km/l and automatic hybrid returns 18.76 km/l.

Transmission options include a 5-speed manual gearbox and a 4-speed automatic. As said earlier, Maruti hasn’t confirmed its re-entry in diesel cars, so that keeps the 2020 Maruti Vitara Brezza Facelift diesel variant on hold for now. If Maruti decides to go with an in-house developed 1.5-litre diesel motor, then the current FCA sourced 1.3-litre MultiJet motor will see its way out.

It won’t be a surprise if you happen to spot a 2020 Maruti Vitara Brezza Facelift sitting at the dealership as there are high chances of Maruti launching the car before the February Auto Expo. The rivals for the Vitara Brezza remain the same, Hyundai Venue, Ford EcoSport, Mahindra XUV300 and the Tata Nexon.
