Offered in four trims- Alpha, Zeta, Delta and Sigma, prices for the SUV currently range from Rs 11.42 lakh to Rs 20.52 lakh (ex-showroom).
Commenting on this milestone, Partho Banerjee, Senior Executive Officer, Marketing and Sales, Maruti Suzuki India Limited, said, “We thank our 3 lakh strong Grand Vitara family for their trust in Maruti Suzuki. The Grand Vitara has been a catalyst in strengthening Maruti Suzuki’s position in the mid-SUV market, and achieving this monumental milestone in such a short period of time is a new benchmark for the industry.
