Maruti Suzuki has officially launched the XL7 in the Indian market, bringing a stylish 7-seater MPV that looks like an SUV and offers top-class comfort and features. The vehicle targets families looking for premium space and design, and it’s built on the successful Ertiga platform with a sportier twist.

The Maruti XL7 is powered by a 1.5-litre K15B Smart Hybrid petrol engine. This engine delivers a maximum power of 103 bhp and 138 Nm of torque. It is paired with either a 5-speed manual gearbox or a 4-speed automatic transmission. The hybrid system provides smoother performance and better fuel efficiency in city and highway conditions. The vehicle is tuned for both performance and practicality, making it suitable for urban as well as long-distance drives.
Mileage Efficiency
The XL7 offers a mileage of up to 19.01 kmpl with the manual variant and around 17.99 kmpl with the automatic version. Thanks to Maruti’s Smart Hybrid technology, it manages better fuel savings and optimized performance. The idle start-stop and brake energy regeneration features contribute to its fuel economy, especially in daily traffic conditions.

In terms of dimensions, the XL7 is longer than the standard Ertiga and gets a bold SUV-like front grille, LED DRLs, roof rails, and black alloy wheels. The car comes with a 7-seater layout in a 2-3-2 configuration. Key features include a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, automatic climate control, steering-mounted controls, reverse parking camera, and dual airbags. It also includes ABS with EBD, ISOFIX child seat mounts, and a high-speed alert system as standard.
