Maruti Suzuki has launched a compact SUV, which can hardly match the premium aura of a Range Rover, at an exceedingly affordable price of just ₹6 lakh. The idea behind this offering is to bring some proverbial luxury SUV styling to the average Indian car buyer. With daring looks and good mileage, this Mini Range Rover-inspired model is going to grab the attention of much of the urban and semi-urban populace.
Styling from a more Expensive Partner at an Entry Price
From the muscular stance, through to the chunky grille, LED DRLs, and bumper designs that shout high-end luxury. Compact it may be, but the design reflects an expensive ambiance and therefore comes across as a stylish choice in the budget segment. The wide stance with high ground clearance also makes it a tall presence on the road and makes it appear much more expensive than it actually is.
Comfortable Cabin with Modern Amenities
Inside, Maruti has provided this mini SUV with a full complement of gadgets required in this sector: a touchscreen infotainment system, steering-mounted controls, and a digital instrument cluster, plus dual-tone interiors. It really is quite a small vehicle with limited dimensions, yet while sitting in it there is enough head and legroom present, especially in the front-row seats. Rear seats would be sufficient for rather short family trips, making it a great daily driver.
Efficiency Makes a Difference
With a practical approach, Maruti has outfitted this SUV with a petrol engine capable of giving an impressive mileage of 24 kmpl. The rating tests it among the most fuel-efficient options in the small SUV category with offsetting cost of running. The engine is a city drive-oriented one, meaning performance is responsive, and maneuvering is easy.
Making Waves in the Budget SUV Segment
With the launch price of just ₹6 lakh and with styling cues taken from that of a much expensive SUV, Maruti’s compact offering is about to redefine value in the Indian car market. Being fuel-efficient and modern in features and aggressive in design, this Mini Range Rover-inspired SUV is all set to attract the budget-luxury seekers.
