Maruti Suzuki's Upcoming Cars in India

With competition heating up in the Indian automobile industry, the country's largest carmaker, Maruti Suzuki India, is planning to bring in several new and facelifted products in the market in next 12 months. Along with a couple of facelifts, we'll see MSI entering some new segments including sub-compact SUV, compact crossover and premium hatchback. So if you are planning to buy a Maruti in near future, here's the list of the cars that MSI will launch.

Maruti Swift Dzire Facelift

After launching the updated Swift hatchback, Maruti Suzuki is contemplating the facelifted Swift Dzire. Though, there will be no major exterior or interior changes. Of all the changes the Dzire will receive, the most notable ones will be a single chrome slat on the grille, chrome fog lamp inserts, revised bumper and redesigned headlamps.

Expected Launch - December 2014
Expected Price: Rs. 5 lakh - Rs. 8 Lakh

Maruti XA Alpha

Ever since its unveiling at the 2012 Delhi Auto Expo, the XA Alpha has been one of the most-anticipated Maruti Suzuki vehicles that will finally be rolled out in 2015. In last couple of years, we have seen the kind of response received by Ford EcoSport, Renault Duster and Nissan Terano, and we know how Maruti can change the game with a really capable product in the segment.

Expected Launch - Second Half of 2015
Expected Price: Rs. 6.50 lakh- Rs. 10 lakh

Maruti SX4 S-Cross

This is yet another product that Maruti Suzuki is betting big on, though the segment it will enter isn't as big in numbers as others. Cars that we currently have in the hatchback-based crossover segment are VW Cross Polo, Toyota Etios Cross and Fiat Avventura. However, carmakers like Maruti and Hyundai with some good products can generate volumes in newly formed segments as well.

Expected Launch - Early 2015
Expected Price: Rs. 6 lakh - Rs. 8 lakh
