The All-New 7-Seater Grand Vitara (Y17)
Later this year, Maruti is set to introduce a seven-seater version of its Grand Vitara, internally designated Y17. This flagship SUV is probably going to have a strong and mild hybrid version that can be derived from Toyota and will probably have several of its functions shared with its Toyota sibling.

It is anticipated that the seven-seater version of the next Grand Vitara (codenamed Y17) will have an aggressive and eye-catching front and rear bumper. This vehicle will probably get larger sets of alloy wheels in addition to newly designed connecting taillights at the back, along with freshly designed bumpers and a new set of LED setups up front. Its amazing road presence and outstanding appearance set it apart from other SUVs in the class. As with the current Grand Vitara on sale, the interior should be more opulent and have a number of connected car technologies, ADAS technology, and a panoramic sunroof.
