Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara Gets Discount of up to Rs 75,000 in February

It is a great time to buy the Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, as the car is eligible for a discount of up to Rs 75,000 in February. Both the strong-hybrid and mild-hybrid versions of the mid-size SUV benefit from this offer. Buyers interested in purchasing mild-hybrid variants can save up to Rs 50,000 this month. The benefits include a cash discount worth up to Rs 15,000 and an exchange incentive of up to Rs 35,000. Meanwhile, the strong-hybrid models get the biggest advantages comprising a monetary offer of up to Rs 25,000 and an exchange incentive of up to Rs 50,000. For reference, the car's starting price in our market is Rs 10.80 lakh (ex-showroom). It's important to take into account that all of the discounts mentioned above come to an end on February 29.

There isn't any official word, but Maruti Suzuki is speculated to upgrade the Grand Vitara's feature list with an ADAS package. Right now, practically all of the compact SUV's main competitors—aside from the Skoda Kushaq, the Volkswagen Taigun, and the Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder—have level-2 ADAS. While there is no confirmation, there's a high chance that the price of the SUV will go up significantly when ADAS is included.
