Maruti Suzuki has officially started accepting bookings for the upcoming XL6 premium MPV for an amount of Rs. 11,000. The company has also started taking online bookings for the XL6 and buyers can book it at Maruti Nexa's official website or through the Nexa app. The Maruti XL6 is a crossover MPV based on the Ertiga and it is underpinned by the same Heartect platform.

Updates include a heavily revised front end sporting new grille, several crossover-inspired styling bits along with bold claddings, larger air dam and skid plates at both ends while retaining the premium cues of the new-gen Ertiga.
