Celebrate this Diwali by saving up to ₹1.8 lakh on the Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara

As the holidays approach, Maruti Suzuki is introducing alluring deals for its Nexa lineup. Leading this wave is the Grand Vitara, a mid-size SUV with discounts of up to ₹1.80 lakh on the strong-hybrid model and up to ₹1.50 lakh on basic petrol trims.

Benefits for CNG versions are less substantial, at about ₹40,000.

Offer Breakdown

  • Grand Vitara, a strong hybrid: up to ₹1.80 lakh discount.

  • Petrol versions: Up to ₹1.50 lakh, including extended warranty and accessories.

  • CNG version: Savings of about ₹40,000.

  • In addition to the discounts, some models come with accessory packages (like the Dominion Edition) and a 5-year extended warranty plan, which can cost up to ₹57,900.

Cost Context

Depending on the model and powertrain, the Grand Vitara typically costs between ₹10.76 lakh and ₹19.57 lakh (ex-showroom) in India.

Therefore, these discounts offer potential customers a large percentage of savings.

Why the timing?

These offers are strategically timed:

  • Traditionally, India's car-buying season peaks during the holiday season (Diwali, Dhanteras).

  • Additionally, the business benefits from recent tax and GST rationalisations (the introduction of "GST 2.0") that allowed base price reductions. For instance, pre-Diwali price reductions of up to ₹1.07 lakh were observed for certain Grand Vitara models.

  • Offerings become more alluring when OEMs combine cash reductions, exchange bonuses, and warranty/accessory packages in an effort to reduce inventory and boost demand.

Considerations for Buyers

  • Verify your eligibility: Verify the eligibility for the best savings, which are only available on a limited number of hybrid models and may necessitate the exchange or scrapping of older cars.

  • Verify the validity period: These deals may differ by dealership and location and are time-bound for the holiday season.

  • Recognize real savings against cost: Although offers may seem alluring, evaluate how they compare to competitors' final on-road prices (including insurance, registration, etc.).

  • Assess powertrain suitability: A less expensive version with a discount can make more sense if you intend to commute in the city and do not require hybrid benefits.

The Grand Vitara's current Diwali-season sale, which includes up to ₹1.80 lakh off plus extended warranty and accessories, is particularly appealing if you've been eyeing a high-end SUV. This is one of the biggest discounts we've seen on a Nexa product this year, especially when combined with the recent price reduction brought on by tax adjustments.

As always, though, make sure the variation, local scheme, and dealership terms meet your expectations before making a purchase.
