Maruti Suzuki India has very high expectations from Vitara Brezza.One of the most ambitious projects ever to be undertaken by Maruti Suzuki India, Vitara Brezza will be launched on Monday, 21st March 2016, reveals Economics Times. Interestingly, Maruti has not confirmed the date yet.

Ambitious because Maruti Vitara Brezza is the company’s first ever car to be designed, researched and developed in India. This car is the first home-grown project of India’s largest car maker which started operations in the early 80s.
