Launched in mid-September 2025, the Maruti Victoris midsize SUV has already made quite an impression in India’s competitive SUV segment. Now, just weeks after its debut, the SUV has received its first-ever price revision. This price hike, however, applies only to the top-end ZXi+ (O) manual and automatic variants, reflecting growing demand for the fully loaded trims. Both these premium versions have now become costlier by ₹15,000, effective immediately.
When first introduced, the Maruti Victoris lineup included six different trim levels, with introductory prices ranging between ₹10.50 lakh and ₹19.99 lakh (ex-showroom). As expected, these prices were promotional in nature, meant to attract early buyers, and were always slated to increase after the introductory period.

Updated Prices After the Hike
Before the recent price hike, the Victoris ZXi+ (O) variants were priced as follows:
- ₹15.82 lakh for the manual (MT) version
- ₹17.77 lakh for the automatic (AT) version
- ₹19.22 lakh for the automatic AWD variant
- ₹19.99 lakh for the strong hybrid eCVT variant
Now, with the ₹15,000 revision, the ZXi+ (O) trims command a slightly higher price tag, bringing them in line with segment expectations.
For those not looking to purchase outright, Maruti Suzuki also offers the Victoris through a monthly subscription plan starting at ₹27,707. This subscription covers several ownership costs including maintenance, registration, insurance, and roadside assistance, making it an appealing option for customers who prefer convenience and flexibility over traditional ownership.
In its very first month of sale, Maruti Suzuki managed to dispatch 4,261 units of the Victoris across its Arena dealership network, reflecting strong initial demand.
Engine and Gearbox Options
Under the hood, the Maruti Victoris offers a diverse range of powertrain options, catering to different driving needs and budgets. It comes with three distinct engine configurations:
- A 1.5-litre mild-hybrid petrol engine producing 103bhp,
- A 1.5-litre strong hybrid petrol engine delivering 116bhp, and
- A 1.5-litre petrol-CNG engine developing 89bhp.
Transmission choices vary across these versions:
- The mild-hybrid and CNG variants are offered with a 5-speed manual gearbox.
