Maruti S-Cross spied testing

Maruti Suzuki’s upcoming crossover was caught testing again this time on the NH8 near the company’s production facility in Manesar, Haryana. The Maruti S-Cross hatchback-SUV crossover is expected to hit showrooms early next year at an estimated price of Rs. 13-14 lakhs (ex-showroom).

The Maruti S-Cross pictured looks to be in its final stage of testing. Based on the SX4 hatchback, this crossover is already on sale in Europe where it replaced the SX4 hatchback but the Indian version will be a little different in terms of certain design features and engines.

Newly leaked pictures and graphics of the Maruti Suzuki S-Cross for India clearly show that the top of the line variants of the S-Cross will get DRLs (daytime running lamps) as well as projector Xenon headlamps which give it an upmarket look.

The interiors will mostly be similar to the ones seen on earlier spy shots and the car is expected to be waymore spacious than the Ford EcoSport which it should be if it plans to take on the Renault Duster and Mahindra XUV500. The car might also get Suzuki’s All Grip all wheel drive system which will lend the car good off roading capabilities although, most customers might not factor that in while making a decision and might opt for proper SUVs like the Duster and XUV500 instead of a hatchback-SUV crossover such as the Maruti S-Cross.
