Maruti Vitara Brezza Petrol MT could get mild-hybrid tech

According to a transport department document, the manual transmission variant of the Vitara Brezza could also get a 1.5-litre petrol engine with mild-hybrid technology.

The Vitara Brezza facelift was launched last month with a 1.5-litre petrol engine producing 104 BHP and 138 Nm. It is paired with either a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission. At present, only the 4-speed AT variant comes with the mild-hybrid technology.

The Vitara Brezza MT Smart Hybrid is expected to be offered in three variants - VXi, ZXi and ZXi+.
