Suzuki has announced the achievement of 6 lakh sales milestone for the Vitara Brezza in India. Having launched back in India in 2016, the Suzuki Vitara Brezza has taken five years to achieve this milestone. Some quick calculations show that on average, the carmaker has managed to sell more than 13 units of the Brezza every hour since its launch less than 5 years ago. When first launched, the Suzuki Vitara Brezza came equipped with a Fiat-sourced D13A 1.3-litre diesel-burner that produced 90PS and 200Nm.

Last year, however, with the advent of the BS6 norms, the carmaker decided to replace the diesel mill with the K15 1.5-liter naturally-aspirated petrol mill that outputs 105PS and 138Nm. Transmission options include a 5-speed manual and a 4-speed automatic unit. The latter works in tandem with the company’s SHVS mild-hybrid setup, which goes on to enhance the fuel economy to a slight extent. While its popularity has taken a hit with the advent of fresher models, like Hyundai Venue and Kia Sonet, it’s still a regular in the top 2 slots of the monthly sales charts of the entry-level SUV segment.
