Maruti Suzuki has launched the updated 2025 WagonR, bringing a mix of fresh features and trusted practicality to the popular hatchback. Known for its affordability and spacious design, the new model now adds modern tech, improved safety, and subtle style upgrades to stay relevant in today’s competitive market.
The car’s exterior gets a sharper look with a redesigned chrome-detailed front grille, LED daytime running lights (DRLs) for a premium feel, and sporty alloy wheels on higher variants. New color options like “Ocean Blue” and “Mystic Red” aim to attract younger buyers. Inside, the cabin feels more modern thanks to a larger 7-inch touchscreen that supports wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, ambient lighting for nighttime drives, and redesigned storage spaces like door pockets and cup holders for added convenience. Higher variants also offer dual-tone upholstery for a stylish touch.
Tech upgrades take center stage with voice commands for controlling the AC, music, and navigation, along with Maruti’s connected car tech (Maruti Connect) that lets owners track fuel levels, maintenance alerts, and even the car’s location via a smartphone app. A wireless charger has also been added to keep devices powered up without messy cables.
Under the hood, the WagonR sticks to its reliable engine options: the 1.0L petrol engine (67 HP) for city drives and the 1.2L petrol engine (83 HP) for those needing extra power on highways. Both come with manual or AMT gearbox choices, and the fuel-efficient CNG variant remains a budget-friendly option. Maruti claims the petrol engines deliver up to 24-25 km/l mileage, while the CNG version offers 32 km/kg.
Safety sees significant improvements, with dual airbags now standard across all variants. Other features include a rear parking camera, sensors for stress-free reversing, ABS with EBD for better braking control, and a speed alert system to remind drivers to stay within limits.
Priced between ₹5.5 lakh (base 1.0L variant) and ₹7.2 lakh (top 1.2L AMT variant) ex-showroom, the 2025 WagonR remains one of the most affordable hatchbacks in India. It’s ideal for city commuters, small families, or first-time buyers looking for a hassle-free, feature-packed car that’s cheap to maintain.
Bookings are now open, and deliveries are expected to start next month. If you’re in the market for a practical, no-nonsense hatchback with a modern twist, the updated WagonR deserves a test drive.
