Maruti Escudo launch date is set for September 3, 2025. The new Maruti SUV will sit above the Brezza and below the Grand Vitara in Maruti SUV model range for 2025. Maruti Escudo price is expected to start from Rs 8.5 lakh and will go up to Rs 15 lakh (ex-showroom). Maruti Arena dealerships will sell the Escudo to customers from September this year where it will sit alongside the Maruti Ertiga and the Maruti Brezza as most expensive Maruti models sold at Arena outlets. Maruti has registered the name Escudo in India back in March 2024. The name Escudo is used on the Grand Vitara SUV in some markets overseas. The Escudo will come with a 1.5-liter petrol engine and will also get hybrid option. Maruti Escudo CNG is in the works too and is expected to launch a little later. The Escudo will be an affordable take on the Hyundai Creta and the Kia Seltos and Maruti’s own Grand Vitara and Toyota Hyryder. Along with the Escudo, Maruti is also readying the eVitara for its market launch later this year.
