Looks like a nasty crash. I hope the occupants are safe, As @anycatd said, it looks more like this was a side collison than a fronal one as the chrome grill is intact. It was either of the LDi or VDi options as there are no alloy wheels, I hope it was the (o) variant in that case which would have passenger airbags as well.
Also, from the first pic, looks like the top has been ripped open to remove the occupants. Looks really nasty in the second pic. Any more details would be appreciated.

They screwed up. Installed a ZDi+ variant windshield instead of ZDi. Now will have to redo it all over again. No leakages were there.

Why redo it? What is that so nasty about having a ZDi+ windscreen? Just asking out of curiosity and nothing to criticize or make fun.

Is there a difference in windshield of ZDi / ZDi+?. If there, what is the difference?

If it's just the 2 sensors just let them be unused. IT's not a big deal.

ZDI+ has rain sensing wipers and auto headlamps. The sensors for these is located in the windshield behind the IRVM.

- Vitara no auto

- Jazz no high end auto (why buy Jazz if no magic seat!)
- Duster horrible rear seat/expensive for the features on offer
- Creta - way too expensive for a 4.5 seater & equipment on offer
- S cross - no auto
- Crysta - auto top end way to expensive/next auto version has nothing exciting

Looks like I need to postpone my buying decision

You have got Ford EcoSport with AT, though I am not a fan of that. I am happy about my decision on Vitara Vrezza; got the ZDI blazing red delivered yesterday. My next change is an AT for sure.

Yes, it comes with a remote for music player. I saw it while doing the PDI before it was gone for registration. But I too forgot to check it while taking the delivery yesterday, need to check that.

Does Maruti Suzuki give dealers one exclusive vehicle for test drive and another one for display in their showroom?
Or is it only one test drive vehicle that they give and for the display they would have to manage with the vehicles that is allocated to someone?
One of my friends got this doubt as he had an experience like this. Please help us here.

Sales executive informed him that the vehicle is available and papers will go for the registration formalities the next day morning. Upon checking where it can be found to do a PDI, they informed it is kept for display in the display area. He was not happy about this as many people may visit the showroom before it is delivered and do all sorts of checking / testing and asked the SE to remove the vehicle immediately from there.

They have no business to put a vehicle allocated to you on display. Please be assured, you have all rights to insist that you prefer a vehicle that is delivered to directly.

I haven't visited the service center. Only conversions through phone. He says there is a box that's connected to the sensors. It doesn't have a place to go in a ZDi. Said it sort of distracts the driver. Don't know exactly what happened but I told them to redo it. Don't want any issues further.

Leave it. There is no distraction of any sort. The ZDI+ has the box whereas the ZDI doesn't. Does that mean all ZDI+ drivers will be distracted?

If anything you can now add the module and enable the 2 features on your car. The biggest expense of windshield and sensors is taken care of!

Too late. Already removed it. I don't need those automatic features. Would have bought the higher variant in that case. He told me there is an empty space on ZDi+ windshield if installed on ZDi. Nothing to obstruct the viewing as told by the other guy from body work department but just not so aesthetic in finish.

Somewhere in the middle, I did see a "GE" which would denote 2016 May, so I guess that should be it.
I'll be driving it home, once the registration formalities are completed - hopefully by Saturday or Monday.

Also, checked out the accessories :
* The MGA armrest hasn't arrived with the dealer yet, so I'll have to wait for it.
* Didn't like the design and quality of the only leather seats (approx 10k) that they had for brezza. Probably will stick with the fabric covers for now.
* I'll be getting 2 tweeters for 1790.
* For gear lock, I'm a little confused. I wanted to get AutoCop, but Maruti folks have got minda. SA mentioned that for AutoCop one has to drill hole into the chasis and this might lead to rusting. Minda, apparently doesn't need any holes to be drilled. Anybody out there, got any experience with minda?

Congratulations on your new Brezza. Getting the tweeters would be good enough as the sound from o.e. speakers is good

Is the armrest now available as a MGA? As it was not there when I got mine delivered. Can you share the part number and cost as well.

Thanks

Rishi

Does the Brezza come with fully synthetic oil from the factory or mineral / semi synthetic oil? Read that Swift is coming with fully synthetic oil from factory. My dealership is using Castrol oils. He said fully synthetic will be offered if customer desires so. Third service is still months away but I just want to be prepared with a good oil to make the engine less noisier and efficiency higher.

Vitara Brezza booking surges ahead, demand exceeds forecast. Waiting period extends at many dealerships! 50% bookings are for the top end.

Production ramped up to cater to 8.5k units/month, but demand increases further creating a mismatch in the supply chain.

Enquiries at some of the carmaker’s dealerships in New Delhi have revealed that the top-end variants – ZDi (O) and ZDi Plus – already have a waiting period of up to 9 months while the LDi, LDi (O), VDi and VDi (O) will see owners get delivery only in December 2016 or January 2017

Current bookings for the Vitara Brezza are understood to be in the region of 70,000 units with about 20,000 wholesales reported by the carmaker. While March 2016 sales comprised 5,563 units, April 2016 sales numbers rose to 7,832 units
