In the busy Indian car world, where people need cars with lots of space for their families, Maruti Suzuki is getting ready to make a big difference with the new XL7 coming in 2025. It’s based on their popular XL6 but is expected to be even better for families who want a comfy seven-seat SUV with lots of features. With its strong look, roomy inside, and the dependable name of Maruti Suzuki, the XL7 could really change how families travel in India.

A Powerful and Modern Look

The Maruti Suzuki XL7 will probably look like the XL6 but with some small changes to show it has seven seats. Expect a strong SUV look with a shiny front grill and thin LED headlights, making the front look impressive. The sides will likely have smooth lines, showing its sporty feel, while high ground clearance and tough body parts will highlight its SUV nature, making it good for city driving and occasional trips on rougher roads.

The XL7 might also come in two-tone colors on the outside, making it look more stylish and letting buyers choose what they like. Details like LED taillights and a sporty spoiler at the back will give it a lively look, making sure the XL7 gets noticed. Expect alloy wheels, maybe with a different design than the XL6, to make it look even more premium.

Roomy and Nice Interiors

One of the best things about the Maruti Suzuki XL7 will be how much space and how nice it is inside. Made to fit seven people comfortably, the XL7 will be great for big families and traveling with groups. The way the seats are arranged, with each row a little higher than the one in front, will help everyone see out well.

The inside will likely have good quality seat covers, maybe with some leather-like parts in the better versions, making it feel fancy. The dashboard will probably be easy to use, maybe with some fake carbon fiber or wood to make it look better. A touchscreen for entertainment, likely the SmartPlay Pro+ system, will be a main feature, letting you easily connect your Apple and Android phones.

Comfort and ease will be important, with things like automatic air conditioning, air vents in the back with their own fan control, and lots of places to store things inside. Expect charging spots in all rows to keep phones and tablets powered up. Features like seats that can be adjusted, including the driver’s seat going up and down, headrests that move for everyone, and back seats that fold down will make it even more useful and comfortable for passengers.

How It Drives and How Efficient It Is

Under the hood, the Maruti Suzuki XL7 will likely use the well-known and reliable 1.5-liter K15B petrol engine. This engine with four cylinders and 16 valves is known for being smooth and using fuel well. It will probably produce around 103-105 horsepower and 138 Nm of torque.

The engine will likely come with both a 5-speed manual and a 4-speed or maybe a newer 6-speed automatic transmission, giving smooth gear changes and a comfortable drive in different situations. It’s also very likely to have Maruti Suzuki’s Smart Hybrid Vehicle by Suzuki (SHVS) mild-hybrid system. SHVS helps the engine with a small electric motor and a battery, which helps save fuel, reduce pollution, and give a little extra power when starting. Features like the engine turning off when stopped and using energy from braking, which are part of the SHVS system, will help save even more fuel.

The XL7 is expected to drive smoothly and handle well, like other Maruti Suzuki cars, with a suspension that is set up to absorb bumps and stay stable on both city roads and highways.

Safety and Features

Safety will be very important for the Maruti Suzuki XL7. Expect many safety features, including two airbags in the front, ABS (a system to help you brake without skidding) with EBD (which helps share braking power evenly), and sensors that beep when you’re backing up, all as standard. Better versions might also have more airbags and a camera to help when parking. ISOFIX points for child seats will make sure kids are safe.

Other features likely in the XL7 include power steering that can be adjusted, power windows in the front and back, central locking, keyless entry, and a steering wheel with buttons to control the music and calls. Depending on the version, the XL7 might also have a digital screen with information, a mirror that dims at night, and headlights that stay on for a bit after you lock the car. While it might not have very fancy features like a sunroof, wireless phone charger, or advanced driving aids, the XL7 is expected to offer a good set of useful and wanted features.

Expected Price and Who It Will Compete With

The Maruti Suzuki XL7 is expected to be a more premium 7-seat SUV, likely costing more than the Ertiga and maybe around the same price or a little more than the XL6. Given the expected features, the price might be around ₹12.60 lakh to ₹14.60 lakh (before taxes), but these are just guesses.

In the competitive Indian market, the Maruti Suzuki XL7 will compete with other 7-seat SUVs and MPVs like the Kia Carens, Hyundai Alcazar, Mahindra XUV700, and Tata Safari. The XL7’s strengths will probably be its space, comfortable ride, good fuel efficiency (especially with the mild-hybrid system), Maruti Suzuki’s reliable name and many service centers, and a price that’s not too high.
