Maruti has launched a special edition variant of the S-Cross, called the Premia, at Rs 8.99 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). This new trim is based on the less-popular S-Cross Delta trim equipped with the 1.3-litre diesel engine.
 
The standard S-Cross Delta is priced at Rs 9.15 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) and comes with only a CD player, manual AC and steel wheels. Features such as reverse camera, alloy wheels, height-adjustable driver's seat, keyless go, cruise control and a rear armrest are not part of the Delta trim. However, these features and more are offered on the higher and more popular Zeta variant which is priced at Rs 9.99 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). In an attempt to increase its popularity, the S-Cross 1.3 Delta was already offered at discounts ranging from Rs 50,000 - 80,000 depending on location. Now Maruti has equipped the S-Cross 1.3 Primea with add-ons such as alloy wheels, fog lamps, reverse park assist system and a Garmin navigation package with a 5.0-inch screen with the purpose of boosting sales.
 
The Maruti S-Cross 1.3 and 1.6, as well as the Baleno petrol and diesel are sold via the company's Nexa premium dealerships.
