Maruti Suzuki has announced a price hike for its premium MPV, the XL6. With immediate effect, all variants of the XL6 are now more expensive by Rs. 12,500. This update follows the brand’s earlier announcement regarding a general price revision for April 2025.
Despite the small bump, the XL6 continues to remain a strong value-for-money proposition in the premium MPV segment, directly competing with models like the Kia Carens.
Overview
Here’s a quick summary of the updated pricing:
| Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| Price Hike | Rs. 12,500 |
| New Price Range | Rs. 11.83 lakh to Rs. 14.99 lakh (ex-showroom) |
| Variants | Zeta, Alpha, Alpha+ |
| Engine | 1.5-litre NA petrol |

| Sales Channel | Nexa dealerships |
Variants and Pricing
The price hike of Rs. 12,500 is uniform across all three variants of the XL6:
- Zeta
- Alpha
- Alpha+
This means no matter which variant you choose, you will now have to shell out an additional Rs. 12,500 compared to the previous pricing. After the revision, the XL6 now starts at Rs. 11.83 lakh and goes up to Rs. 14.99 lakh, all prices being ex-showroom.
Engine and Gearbox
Under the hood, the XL6 continues with the same 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine. This motor is known for its smoothness and reliability, producing adequate power for both city driving and highway cruising.
Transmission choices remain unchanged as well, offering:
- A five-speed manual gearbox
- A six-speed torque converter automatic gearbox
Both options cater to different types of buyers, whether you prefer the involvement of a manual or the ease of an automatic.
Sales Channel
The XL6 is sold exclusively through Maruti’s Nexa chain of premium dealerships. Nexa focuses on offering a more upmarket buying and ownership experience compared to Maruti Suzuki’s Arena outlets.
Market Context
Interestingly, this price revision comes just weeks before Kia is set to reveal the updated 2025 Carens, which is one of the XL6’s closest competitors. It will be interesting to see how Maruti positions the XL6 against the refreshed Carens when it arrives.
Although the Rs. 12,500 price hike might pinch a little, the XL6 still offers a strong mix of premium features, reliable performance, and spacious comfort, keeping it firmly in the minds of family MPV buyers.
