Tell us about your experience

The Maruti Suzuki Victoris offers three powertrain options to suit different priorities: a 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine, a factory-fitted CNG version and a 1.5-litre strong hybrid. The petrol engine produces 103hp and 139Nm of torque and comes with a 5-speed manual or a 6-speed torque-converter automatic. The strong hybrid pairs a 1.5-litre petrol engine with an electric motor and an e-CVT automatic, prioritising fuel efficiency over outright performance.

Key facts for the Victoris:

  • Gearboxes across the range include a 5-speed manual, a 6-speed torque-converter automatic and an e-CVT automatic. Selected petrol automatic variants also get the AllGrip all-wheel-drive system.
  • The 1.5-litre petrol engine produces 103hp and 139Nm, while the CNG version produces 87.8hp and 121.5Nm in CNG mode. The strong-hybrid petrol engine produces 92.45hp and 122Nm, with additional assistance from its electric motor.
  • The SUV measures 4,360mm long, 1,795mm wide and 1,655mm tall, with a 2,600mm wheelbase.
  • The Victoris seats five. The underbody CNG tank preserves the boot space available in the petrol version, while the strong hybrid has a raised boot floor that reduces luggage capacity.
  • Six airbags are standard, along with ABS and electronic stability control. Higher variants add Level 2 ADAS, and the SUV has a five-star Bharat NCAP safety rating.
  • A 10.1-inch touchscreen, a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, a panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats and a powered tailgate are available on selected higher variants.
  • ARAI-claimed mileage ranges from 19.07kpl for the petrol automatic with all-wheel drive to 28.65kpl for the strong hybrid. The petrol manual is rated at 21.18kpl, the front-wheel-drive petrol automatic at 21.06kpl and the CNG version at 27.02km/kg.
  • Our experts at Autocar India found the naturally aspirated petrol engine adequate for everyday use during road tests but short on performance when quick acceleration is needed, particularly with the all-wheel-drive automatic. The strong hybrid is better suited to buyers prioritising efficiency over outright pace.

I recently bought this car, and I wish I had known about the Victoris earlier. The styling and features are outstanding, and it scored 5 stars in safety ratings.

This is a good Maruti Suzuki car in 2025. Its performance and mileage are great, even in city conditions.

I am very happy with my ZXI CNG variant. The car is beautiful and practical, with excellent fuel efficiency. The only downside is the lack of a 360-degree camera and sunroof option in the CNG variant.

Mere pass bhi yahi car hai. This is the best in comfort and for family also. Better in mileage then other car and I have another car Mahindra Thar. That one is not that comfortable but this car is comfortable and maintenance cost is also very low. I used everywhere and thank you very much to Maruti.

The buying experience was good. I bought this car for mileage, and it delivers. If you drive carefully, you can get over 900 km for 3000 bucks. Everything is good except the touch screen is a bit small.

The buying experience and test drive were excellent. The ride is smooth and very comfortable. The looks of the car, both inside and out, appeal to me. I'm getting 16 kmpl with mixed driving, and the parking assist is fantastic.

Really got it all in low budget. We buy LXI based model, all are asking is it 7 seater car, where satisfy in Victoris base model. Maintainence cost also better for us. Servicing cost, and in servicing center people also taking good and doing better servicing. Full sufficient inside the car, interior also good.

The car has a muscular appearance and offers good mileage of 17.6 kmpl. Acceleration is decent, not fast, but overall, it provides comfort. Features like automatic boot opening and hill hold assist are great.

Hi, I am keen on buying a petrol AWD. In case, the vehicle will be used for trips to mountains where there are kaccha roads with unmetalled surface and loose stones. Which would be a better choice between Victoris and Grand Vitara?

Verified
•4h

The Victoris and Grand Vitara are essentially the same vehicle with the only differentiation being their body style, and interior colour and design. The Victoris feels more modern, and its light grey and black coloured interiors look airier and more inviting than the Grand Vitara. It is also better-equipped, but that makes it around Rs 50,000 more expensive than the equivalent Grand Vitara. Overall, if you're not limited by budget, the Victoris AWD AT would be the one we'd recommend.

I currently own a 2018 Maruti Suzuki Baleno petrol and am planning to buy a new car. After a lot of research, I’ve narrowed it down to the Maruti Suzuki Victoris ZXi(O), which comes under Rs 15 lakh with Bharat Series (BH) registration. The dealer is offering a big discount: Rs 2.30 lakh for my Baleno, an exchange bonus of Rs 50,000 and an additional discount of up to Rs 2.50 lakh. I drive about 7,000-8,000 km a year. I’m a smooth, relaxed driver who values long-term reliability and takes occasional trips to the hills. Should I go ahead with the Victoris, or should I consider other options?

The Victoris is a good fit for your needs and will feel like a substantial upgrade over your Baleno. Since your running is fairly minimal, the mild-hybrid version you are considering makes more sense than the strong hybrid. It will offer decent fuel efficiency around town and enough power for occasional hill trips.If you are looking for alternatives, consider the Honda Elevate. It also offers a smooth 1.5-litre naturally aspirated engine, but has a bit more performance on tap than the Victoris. The Kia Seltos is another strong contender, with a premium, roomy cabin, although it may exceed your budget.Overall, the Victoris is a good choice and offers good value for money.

Hi, I am planning to buy my first car and am looking for an automatic car in the Rs 12-16.5 lakh budget. I am 6ft tall, so seating comfort, particularly headroom and under-thigh support, is an important consideration. My monthly running will be around 1,000km, with approximately 70% in Bangalore city traffic and 30% on highways. I am looking for a car that offers decent mileage, comfortable seating, reliable after-sales service and good long-term reliability, as I plan to keep it for at least 10 years. Features such as a reverse camera, height-adjustable driver seat and rear AC vents are also priorities. I have shortlisted the Mahindra XUV 3XO AT, Maruti Brezza ZXi AT, Maruti Grand Vitara Delta TC and Toyota Urban Cruiser Taisor?

The Maruti Suzuki Brezza ZXI AT would be the one we'd recommend for you. It's got a pleasant 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine that works well with the six-speed torque converter automatic gearbox. It's not a performance-oriented powertrain, in case that's a priority for you, but rather is tuned for comfortable city use and smooth performance. Fuel economy is also good for an automatic. Interestingly, the Brezza offers more headroom than the Grand Vitara and Victoris at the back, making it better suited to your needs. The Brezza ZXI AT gets all the features that you need and is the pick of the contenders.

I have a budget of Rs. 16 lakh and I am getting Victoris ZXI AT and Creta S (O) iVT automatic in petrol. My monthly running is around 1000 km. Please suggest as this will be my first car.

Go for the Maruti Suzuki Victoris ZXI automatic. It is a well-rounded SUV with a reliable naturally aspirated petrol engine, a smooth automatic gearbox and Maruti's extensive service network, which makes ownership stress free. The Creta S Optional IVT is a good car, but at this price point you are getting a lower variant with fewer features, whereas the Victoris ZXI is a higher trim with a better overall value proposition. The Victoris also offers a comfortable ride, good fuel efficiency and a hassle-free ownership experience, which is exactly what you want from your first car.

I took my Victoris for its first service expecting to leave the car there most of the day. Was done much quicker than expected and there wasn't really anything extra.
