Maruti Vitara Brezza Petrol Variants comes with a 1.5-litre petrol engine which will churn out 105 Ps and 138 Nm of torque paired with a 5-speed manual and 4-speed Automatic.

The launch of the Vitara Brezza Petrol is expected to happen on February 15 2020. The 1.3-diesel powertrain will be discontinued and the remaining stock is being sold at a discounted price. The 1.3-diesel engine has served for more than 12 years now giving duty on mere all the Maruti Suzuki models. We expect the prices to come down a bit thanks to the absence of a diesel engine and also fierce competition from rivals.
