Maruti Suzuki Escudo is all set to launch its next big product – the Maruti Escudo – in India on September 3, 2025.
This new mid-size SUV is expected to sit above the Brezza and below the Grand Vitara, positioning itself as the flagship SUV under the Arena dealership network.
The Maruti Suzuki Escudo is likely to be positioned between the Brezza and the Grand Vitara in the brand’s SUV lineup and could be retailed through the Arena network, and will complement the Grand Vitara, which continues to be sold via Maruti’s premium Nexa channel. While official details are yet to be confirmed, early indications suggest the Escudo might be slightly longer than the Grand Vitara.
Maruti Suzuki Escudo : Expected Features
Although official specifications are still secret, the new Escudo should provide:
- Engine Choices: 1.5L mildhybrid petrol, maybe a robust hybrid
- Transmissions: six-speed automatic; five-speed manual
Characteristics:
- LED headlights with linked tail lights
- digital instrument cluster, 360-degree camera
- Wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay on a 9 inch entertainment system
- Panorama sunroof, ventilated seats, and wireless charger
- Top versions have six airbags, ESC, and perhaps ADAS.
Reasons Maruti Suzuki Escudo Still Matters
Under the Arena brand, this signals Maruti Suzuki’s amazing return to the midsize SUV market. The Grand Vitara aims to appeal to premium buyers via Nexa; the Escudo, however, aims to provide great value, striking design, and a broader service network—something Arena clients have long awaited.
Reservations and Availability
With deliveries possibly beginning during the holiday season about October, prebookings are anticipated to open by the end of August 2025. Immediately after the launch, Maruti might also present the car at dealerships.
Lastly
In the congested SUV market, the Maruti Escudo is developing as a brave, valuepacked option. This upcoming model is well worth the wait if you want a dependable, feature-rich midsize SUV under ₹20 lakh with strong aftersales support.
