2022 Maruti Brezza CNG To Be Offered In Both Manual and Automatic Gearbox
  • Maruti Brezza CNG will be the first CNG compact SUV in the segment
  • It will be offered in four variants - LXI, VXI, ZXI and ZXI+
  • It will also be the first factory-fitted CNG vehicle in India to be offered with a 6-speed AT unit as an option

India's largest car manufacturer, Maruti Suzuki is all set to introduce Brezza CNG in the market. What's interesting is that the CNG-powered Maruti Brezza will be offered in both 5-speed manual as well a 6-speed torque converter automatic transmission. Maruti Brezza is not only the first CNG-powered SUV but also the first CNG SUV to be offered with an automatic transmission as an option.

Under the hood, the Brezza CNG will be powered by the 1.5-litre, four-cylinder, K15C petrol engine. This is the same motor that is seen in the Ertiga CNG as well. There it produces 87 bhp of power with a peak torque of 121.5 Nm.

In petrol form, the ARAI-certified mileage of the Brezza sticks to 20.1 kmpl for the manual and 19.8 kmpl for the 6-speed AT. In CNG form, we expect the certified mileage to be north of 25 km/kg. The power and torque figures are definitely reduced but the mileage will go up thus saving the customer's pocket by a huge margin.

The manual is offered in all four variants while the 6-speed AT is observed in VXI, ZXI and ZXI+ only.

Feature-wise, Brezza is equipped with a 9.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, an electric sunroof, cruise control, auto IRVM, rake and reach adjustment for the steering wheel, LED headlights, LED daytime running lights, LED taillights and more.

Safety features on the Brezza include six airbags, ABS with EBD, electronic stability control, hill hold control, a high-speed alert system, 360-degree camera, reverse parking sensors, speed sensing door locks, front seat-belt reminder and more.

Maruti Brezza petrol is priced from Rs 7.99 lakh to Rs 13.96 lakh, ex-showroom, Delhi. We expect the CNG version to be priced at a premium of Rs 95,000 over the petrol version. We expect the launch to happen later this year or at the 2023 Auto Expo.

Verdict

Maruti Brezza will be the first SUV in the market to be offered with a factory-fitted CNG. Not only this but it will be the first CNG vehicle to be offered with an automatic transmission with CNG. For those customers with high running, this can be a good alternative as it will be cheaper to run.
