One of Maruti’s best-selling SUVs, the Brezza, is due for an update, and its facelift has been spotted multiple times.

Toyota’s best-selling SUV, the Urban Cruiser Hyryder, has been a very successful product thanks to impressive fuel economy figures and reliability.

It will likely get the underbody CNG tech from the Victoris, allowing for a more practical and usable boot even with CNG.
