Maruti Suzuki has now updated the Zeta Plus variant of the brand-new Invicto MPV with a new safety feature. Within a month after its launch on July 5, the Indian arm of the Japanese manufacturer has rolled out a rear seatbelt reminder for the Zeta Plus variant for enhanced safety of the passengers. The rear seatbelt reminder prompts the riders on the rear seats to buckle in at the start of the journey or trip. With this update, the new safety feature is now standard across both the variants - Zeta Plus and Alpha Plus. Earlier, it was offered only with the top-spec Alpha Plus. As a result, prospective buyers will have to shell out Rs 3,000 more than before. 

Besides, the Zeta Plus comes loaded with an 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a rearview camera, all seatbelts (3-point ELR), ABS with EBD, front and rear disc brakes, ISOFIX child seat mount, front side and curtain airbags, dual front airbags (driver and front passenger), etc.
