The Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza does not feature a petrol engine but is expected to get one in 2019. The earlier speculations were of this year, but Suzuki is developing an in-house 1.5 Litre Petrol engine, that might come in this petrol variant. So we expect it to launch by mid-2019. However, it is likely to continue with the 1.0 Litre Boosterjet Petrol, which is already available in the Baleno in European markets. There, the engine is compliant with Euro VI Emission norms. Also, the Boosterjet engine produces power figures similar to Ecosport’s 1.2 Litre Dragon Petrol and Nexon’s 1.2 Litre Revotron. The SUV is mated to a 5-speed Manual gearbox and a 5-speed Auto Gear Shift. The mileage recorded of the car is around 24.3 KMPL with a fuel capacity of 48 Litres.
