Maruti Suzuki has introduced the updated Grand Vitara CNG, expanding its popular SUV’s appeal with enhanced safety, comfort features, and a cleaner fuel option. This update follows the recent refresh of the petrol and hybrid variants and brings several new additions to the CNG trims.
All about 2025 Grand Vitara CNG
Two Variants on Offer: Delta & Zeta
The updated Grand Vitara CNG is available in two trims — Delta and Zeta — with prices ranging from ₹13.48 lakh to ₹15.62 lakh (ex-showroom). While the Delta variant serves as the entry-level CNG option, the Zeta variant adds a layer of premium features to the mix.
Key Feature Upgrades: Safety & Comfort First
The most notable upgrade across both variants is the inclusion of six airbags as standard, marking a significant step forward in safety. Additional features include:
- Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
- PM 2.5 filter (with a display in Zeta)
- Rear door sunshades
- Wireless phone charger (Zeta only)
- Ventilated front seats (Zeta only)
- 17-inch alloy wheels (Zeta)
- Clarion-sourced audio system (Zeta)
However, it’s worth noting that the Zeta CNG trim skips the panoramic sunroof, unlike its petrol counterpart.
Engine and Performance: Bi-Fuel Efficiency
Under the hood, the 1.5-litre, four-cylinder bi-fuel engine remains unchanged. The engine delivers:
- 87 bhp and 121.5 Nm of torque in CNG mode
- Mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox
- Claimed fuel efficiency of 26.6 km/kg
This setup continues to deliver reliable performance while keeping running costs in check, especially in urban driving conditions.
Unique Positioning in the Segment
With this update, the Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara becomes the only compact SUV in India with a factory-fitted CNG kit. While Honda’s Elevate offers a CNG option, it’s only available via dealer-level installations, giving Maruti a definitive edge in terms of factory-backed quality and warranty assurance.
Closing Thoughts on Grand Vitara CNG
The updated Grand Vitara CNG brings together Maruti Suzuki’s commitment to safety, sustainability, and value. With factory-fitted CNG convenience, six airbags, and added comfort features, it’s a compelling choice for buyers looking for an eco-friendly, feature-rich SUV without stretching the budget.
