This could help Maruti position the turbo variant more competitively while also enhancing its performance credentials. The existing 1.5-litre petrol engine is expected to remain unchanged and will continue to be the preferred choice for buyers looking for a comfortable driving experience and factory-fitted CNG compatibility.
CNG version may be more practical
The spyshots suggest that Maruti may modify the CNG version with an underbody-mounted cylinder layout similar to the recently launched Victoris.

Underfloor tank arrangements will improve practicality while retaining the benefits of low operating costs.
The facelifted Brezza is expected to get a wider grille with thick chrome elements, revised front bumper design, updated fog lamp housing and a redesigned skid plate. The overall silhouette remains unchanged, but these changes are expected to give the SUV a refreshed and more premium appearance. New alloy wheel designs and updated color options may also be part of the package.
