Maruti Suzuki are all set to launch their brand-new C-SUV in India tomorrow, September 3, 2025. The SUV, which will be retailed through the Arena dealership network, will rival the segment leader Hyundai Creta while offering a more accessible price point compared to the premium Grand Vitara sold via Nexa outlets.

Maruti Arena C-SUV To Launch Tomorrow – All You Need To Know

Maruti Arena C-SUV Expected Price And Positioning

The upcoming Maruti Arena C-SUV is expected to be priced between Rs. 9.99 lakh and Rs. 18.5 lakh (ex-showroom). This will place it above the Brezza (Rs. 8.69 lakh - Rs. 14.14 lakh) and below the Grand Vitara (Rs. 11.42 lakh - Rs. 20.52 lakh).

With a starting price under Rs. 10 lakh, Maruti hope to attract budget-conscious buyers while offering enough variants to take on the Hyundai Creta (Rs. 11.11 lakh - Rs. 20.50 lakh) directly. However, the new SUV could overlap with the Brezza’s top variants.

Expected Powertrain Options

While Maruti Suzuki haven’t revealed engine details yet, the upcoming C-SUV is expected to share its powertrains with the Grand Vitara and Brezza. Likely options include:

2025 MARUTI ARENA C-SUV EXPECTED POWERTRAIN SPECS
Engine	1.5L Normal Petrol	1.5L Mild-Hybrid Petrol	1.5L Strong Hybrid-Petrol	1.5L CNG
Power	101PS @ 6000rpm	103PS @ 6000rpm	116PS @ 5500rpm	88PS @ 5500rpm
Torque	137Nm @ 4300rpm	139Nm @ 4400rpm	141Nm @ 3995rpm	122Nm @ 4200rpm
Transmission	5-speed MT	5-speed MT 6-speed AT	CVT	5-speed MT

Mileage figures are also expected to mirror the Grand Vitara:

Mild-hybrid: 20.58–21.11kmpl
Strong hybrid: 27.97kmpl
CNG: 26.60 km/kg

All-wheel-drive (AWD), which is offered with the top variant of the Grand Vitara, is not expected in the Arena C-SUV lineup.

Expected Features

The upcoming C-SUV is expected to borrow many features from Maruti’s Brezza and Grand Vitara, including:

Panoramic sunroof
Ventilated front seats
Leather upholstery
360-degree surround view camera
Head-up display
Wireless Android Auto & Apple CarPlay
Wireless phone charger
9-inch touchscreen infotainment system
7-inch digital instrument cluster
Arkamys-tuned sound system
Auto-folding ORVMs
LED projector headlamps
Rear wiper and washer

On the safety front, Maruti is expected to offer 6 airbags, all-seat 3-point seatbelts with reminders, and ESP as standard, aligning with their 2025 product updates.
