Questions you may find useful

•21w

I’m planning to buy the Maruti Suzuki Brezza VXI Automatic and will be taking delivery in the next 3 days. Before proceeding, I would like some advice. Is it worth going ahead with the purchase now, or should I wait for a possible facelift? I have already waited for about a month. Are there any drawbacks I should be aware of apart from the missing turbo punch? I’ve seen some videos where the engine sounds quite loud during hard acceleration-should engine noise be a concern? I could only test drive the manual version of the Brezza and not the automatic. During the test drive, I didn’t notice much difference in terms of weight or overall driving feel. My priority is a peaceful, comfortable, long-term car with low noise levels, decent mileage, and good performance for both city and highway driving. I also test drove the Maruti Suzuki Fronx and Tata Nexon (AMT variants), but I didn’t like the AMT transmission. The DCT variants are more expensive, and I have heard they are not ideal for heavy traffic. The main reason I am considering the Brezza is its torque-converter automatic transmission. Should I go ahead with the Brezza Automatic, consider the Maruti Suzuki Victoris Automatic even if it costs around ₹3 lakh more, or look at another option?

We are not sure of the exact timelines for the launch of the facelifted Maruti Suzuki Brezza. But looking at the spy pictures floating around, we can assume it should be towards the end of next year. What you can expect from the facelift are minor cosmetic changes and some feature enhancements, but no changes to the powertrain.The Brezza’s naturally aspirated petrol engine is fairly refined as long as you don’t rev it too hard. Under hard acceleration, it can sound a bit loud, but in regular driving, it remains smooth and comfortable. You are right in choosing the Brezza for its automatic transmission - it uses a traditional torque converter, which is smoother than both AMTs and DCTs. And yes, DCTs can feel jerky in heavy traffic.The Maruti Suzuki Victoris is a bigger car but comes with the same engine and transmission options. Both the Victoris and Brezza are good in the city but can feel a bit lethargic on the highway. If you don’t need the extra space, the current Brezza is good enough. It’s a proven and reliable product for long-term ownership.
