Maruti Grand Vitara CNG to go on sale in December 2022

The Grand Vitara CNG will be mechanically identical to the Urban Cruiser Hyryder CNG.

Maruti Suzuki is said to be planning to launch CNG variants of the Grand Vitara in December 2022. The prices for the mid-size SUV will be announced after the launch of the Urban Cruiser Hyryder CNG.

The Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara CNG will be powered by a 1.5-litre petrol engine. The same engine powers the recently launched XL6 CNG. It puts out 87 BHP when running on CNG and like the Hyryder, it could be offered with a 5-speed manual transmission.

The Grand Vitara CNG will be mechanically identical to the Urban Cruiser Hyryder CNG and therefore, we can expect a similar fuel efficiency figure of 26.10 km/kg.

Toyota announced the launch of the Glanza CNG and Urban Cruiser Hyryder CNG recently. While dealerships have started taking bookings, the carmaker is yet to reveal the pricing for the latter.
