Boot Space
The boot may not seem large at 328 liters, but its squared-off shape makes it easier to fit bulky luggage. Additionally, there are side pockets to hold little things like a cleaning cloth or a tire repair kit (most tyre inflators won’t fit in here). After you flip the seat base up and lower the backrest, the rear seat splits and folds (60:40) nearly entirely flat for more space.
Ride And Handling
The Brezza provides excellent handling and ride comfort in equal measure. The car feels steady at over 100 mph and the cabin occupants are well-insulated from even sharper bumps. It also maintains composure even over undulating roads.
The ride of the Vitara Brezza is now more balanced, despite its original setup being on the sportier/stiffer side. Additionally, the Brezza provides slightly better noise insulation than the previous model, though wind noise is still audible at 80 to 100 kmph.
Verdict
The Maruti Suzuki Brezza has more safety features, a more robust tech package, and an improved automatic transmission while keeping the core qualities of comfort, space, and practicality. Although the packaging excels in the Z and Z+ versions, it also offers respectable value in the L and V. However, considering that its rivals offer turbo-petrols and diesels for less money, the Brezza ought to have provided better interior quality and more thrilling driving options as well, especially considering the higher price of the top variants.
Conclusion
As the most popular small SUV in India, the Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza is praised for combining utility, style, and performance. Even with its superior safety and technological features, premium models are fiercely competitive because of their high price and lack of turbo-petrol and diesel options compared to competitors.
