According to recent reports, the Toyota-badged Vitara Brezza is expected to be launched by the brand in April 2020. It will be the second rebadged Maruti product that will be launched with the Toyota branding. Toyota Glanza, the rebadged Maruti Baleno was the first-ever product launched after the partnership of the two automobile giants.

The 2020 Maruti Vitara Brezza was revealed at the recently held Auto Expo 2020 while features minor cosmetic changes with new LED headlight and taillight setup. Powering the SUV is a 1.5-litre BS6 petrol engine while the brand has discontinued the last-gen diesel engine since it would not be updated according to the BS6 emission norms. The updated SUV is expected to be launched by the end of February 2020, though the Toyota-badged Vitara Brezza will see the light of the day in April.

Powering the Toyota’s version of Vitara Brezza will be the same 1.5-litre K15B petrol engine that is capable of offering maximum power of 105HP and a peak torque of 138Nm. The engine will be mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox as standard while the 4-speed automatic gearbox will also be available as an option.

The SUV is expected to feature similar designing traits as well as the mechanics when compared to the Maruti Vitara Brezza though one can expect Toyota to offer a better warranty package with the same.

Once launched in Nepal, the Toyota-badged Vitara Brezza will feature a heavier price tag than the ongoing Maruti Suzuki variant which is currently available in the market. The rebadged SUV from Toyota will compete in the market with the likes of Mahindra XUV300, Hyundai Venue, Tata Nexon and more.
