\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Maruti Suzuki Set To Launch Two New SUVs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scheduled to come first, a five-seater midsize SUV will lead the pack having scheduled launch on September 3 before the arrival of the e Vitara.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This will be placed below the Grand Vitara in Maruti Suzuki\u2019s domestic portfolio and will be packed with features.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moving ahead, <a href=\"https:\/\/gaadiwaadi.com\/soon-launching-maruti-suzuki-escudo-hybrid-to-be-feature-rich\/\">Maruti Suzuki<\/a> will be selling the new midsize SUV through its Arena dealership chain unlike the Grand Vitara which is retailed via the Nexa outlets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We can expect this new SUV to be slightly longer than the Grand Vitara as per the earlier indications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides this, it could come with the ICE-powered model which is expected to be more mass market oriented due to its Arena presence and its prices will reflect that strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The car maker has created a clear sales and segment distinction between the two products.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This strategy would definitely help in avoiding overlap for the brand while parallely targeting a wider customer base.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Maruti Suzuki Escudo Expected Features and Specifications&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It appears that the Maruti Suzuki will use its tried-and-tested powertrain strategy for the Escudo as it will feature the same 1.5-litre mild hybrid and 1.5L strong hybrid petrol engines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is already found in the Grand Vitara while a CNG variant cannot be ruled out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company will bring both manual and automatic transmissions on sale and the pricing is expected to fall in the Rs. 11 lakh to Rs. 16 lakh range (ex-showroom).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Carmakers this approach could ensure both cost efficiency and smoother production ramp up.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is said that the shared mechanicals should also aid in maintaining a familiar ownership and service experience.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This upcoming launch is expected to compete in a tightly contested segment as its sibling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After its launch, the Maruti Suzuki Escudo will take on Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Mahindra Scorpio N, Toyota Hyryder, Honda Elevate, etc.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The SUV will draw design cues from both the e Vitara and the Grand Vitara and the interior will be spacious as well as practical courtesy of a large boot as per the indications from the test mules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to the features, a nine-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, six airbags as standard, wireless smartphone charger, a semi-digital instrument console, a flat-bottom steering wheel, drive modes, etc will be offered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a
