Pune, 3 September 2025 — Maruti Suzuki has officially unveiled the much-awaited Maruti Suzuki Victoris, also named as Escudo, a feature-packed midsize SUV designed to dominate India’s most competitive automotive segment. Positioned as the flagship SUV under the Arena dealership network. The Victoris sits between the Brezza and the Grand Vitara, targeting a wide spectrum of buyers from budget-conscious families to tech-savvy urban professionals.

Victoris look Bigger, Bolder, and Smarter, which is built on Suzuki’s Global-C platform. The Victoris comes with a striking new design that balances boldness with familiarity. A large gloss-finished grille, sleek LED projector headlamps, boomerang-shaped DRLs, and sculpted bonnet lines give it a confident stance. At the rear, stylish split LED tail-lamps and a chunky bumper enhance its road presence.

Dimensionally, the Victoris is looking slightly longer than the Grand Vitara, It might result in better cabin space and improved boot capacity, a key advantage for family buyers.

Maruti Suzuki is offering three engine options, making the Victoris one of the most flexible SUVs in its class:

• 1.5L K15C Petrol (Mild-Hybrid)
