Maruti Suzuki Invicto

Sure, the ride of the Maruti Suzuki Invicto can be a bit firm for some, but to be honest, I much prefer it over the Innova Crysta.

I know a lot of people regard the Innova Crysta as a car that has the best suspension setup for long-distance travel, but I beg to differ about the same.

I’ve had family visiting, which means that we’ve been able to test the third row of the Maruti Suzuki Invicto and it passed with flying colours as far as space and comfort is concerned.

The Maruti Suzuki Invicto also is quite feature rich with climate control, a full selection of airbags and other safety features, as well as good connectivity features.

Strong hybrids are gaining popularity for their fuel-efficient powertrains, which combine a combustion engine, electric motor, and battery for smooth, eco-friendly performance.

The Maruti Suzuki Invicto is available with attractive discounts of up to Rs 65,000. The MPV is currently priced between Rs 25.21 lakh and Rs 28.92 lakh (ex-showroom).

With the Invicto, Maruti Suzuki is leapfrogging into a new segment, one that it has not competed in ever before. Question is, is the Invicto a nice enough package for customers to accept a premium Maruti Suzuki?

The Invicto is powered by a strong hybrid powertrain that includes a 2.0-litre four-cylinder unit mated to an electric motor. This motor has the potential to churn out 11bhp, while the engine is capable of producing 172bhp and 188Nm of peak torque.

Maruti Suzuki, having been the leader in the mass market segment in India, is now aiming for the premium segment with the Invicto. But, is the Invicto really different from its sibling, the Innova Hycross? And does it offer an attractive enough offer for consumers?
