Speaking about the latest achievement, R S Kalsi, senior executive director, marketing and sales, Maruti Suzuki said that they are thankful to their customers for the love and positive response. S-Cross has clocked over a 16 per cent market share in its segment and has helped them delight customers looking for a premium offering from Maruti Suzuki. The company has created a highly engaging ownership experience of the S-Cross by introducing many best in segment features which are further complimented by its bold design and premium interiors.

The S Cross is powered by a 1.3-litre diesel motor producing 90PS/200Nm. This is mated to a Smart Hybrid Vehicle System that's already in use on the pre-facelift Maruti Ciaz and Ertiga.

Maruti Suzuki recently updated the S-Cross. It now gets rear parking sensors, a speed warning system and a passenger seatbelt warning function as standard across all of its four trims. Additionally, the lower-mid spec Delta trim now gets a smart key with push-button start. Other features on this variant include cruise control, automatic climate control, rear windscreen washer and wiper and auto-folding outer rear view mirrors.

The S-Cross sells around 4,000 units monthly. The base S-Cross in its Sigma trim costs Rs 8.85 lakh while the top-spec Alpha variant now goes for Rs 11.45 lakh. Variant-wise prices have increased anywhere from Rs 13,000 to Rs 55,000. All prices are ex-showroom Delhi.
