India’s most popular family hatchback has returned stronger than ever. Maruti Suzuki has officially launched the 2025 WagonR in India, bringing major upgrades in safety, fuel efficiency, and design, all while maintaining its reputation as the ultimate value-for-money car.
Priced from ₹3.75 lakh (ex-showroom), the new WagonR 2025 delivers segment-best mileage of up to 38 KMPL (CNG) and introduces dual airbags as standard, reinforcing its appeal as a safe and economical city car.
A Familiar Favorite with a Fresh Look
The 2025 Maruti WagonR retains its signature tallboy design but now wears a more modern and premium appearance. The front fascia has been updated with sleeker headlamps featuring LED DRLs, a redesigned bumper, and a reworked front grille for a bolder stance.
At the rear, subtle styling tweaks — including new tail lamps and a revised tailgate — complete the refreshed look. The new WagonR continues to strike a balance between familiarity and modern flair, making it equally appealing to long-time Maruti fans and new-age buyers.
Mileage Champion: Up to 38 KMPL on CNG
Maruti has once again raised the bar for fuel efficiency. The CNG variant of the WagonR 2025 boasts an impressive 38 KMPL, positioning it among the most fuel-efficient hatchbacks available in India.
Even the petrol variants offer competitive mileage, delivering up to 25 KMPL under standard conditions. With rising fuel prices, these figures make the WagonR one of the most economical daily commuters in the country — ideal for city users, professionals, and small families.
Safety Gets a Major Boost
Maruti Suzuki has placed a stronger emphasis on passenger safety this year. The new WagonR 2025 now comes with dual front airbags as standard across all variants, marking a significant step up from previous models.
Additional safety enhancements include:
- ABS with EBD
- Rear parking sensors
- Speed alert system
- Seatbelt reminders
- High-strength HEARTECT platform
Higher trims go even further, adding reverse parking camera, hill hold assist (AMT variants), and ISOFIX child seat mounts, ensuring greater safety for families and first-time buyers alike.
Modern Cabin with Smart Features
Step inside the WagonR 2025, and you’ll find a refreshed cabin that balances functionality and modern comfort. The dashboard now features a 7-inch SmartPlay infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay support.
The dual-tone interior design gives the cabin a more spacious and airy feel, while steering-mounted controls, rear parcel tray, and power windows on all doors enhance convenience.
Electrically adjustable ORVMs and practical storage options add to the car’s ease of use, making it perfect for everyday driving and family use.
Engine Lineup: Proven and Reliable
Maruti continues to offer two petrol engine options for the WagonR 2025 — both tried and tested for Indian conditions:
- 1.0L K10C Petrol: Efficient and city-friendly, ideal for daily commutes.
- 1.2L K12N Petrol: Offers more power for highway and long-distance drives.
Both engines come paired with 5-speed manual and AMT (Auto Gear Shift) options, catering to different driving preferences.
The CNG variant, as always, remains a top choice for those prioritizing running cost and mileage efficiency without sacrificing reliability.
Verdict: India’s “Budget King” Gets Smarter
With its new design, enhanced safety, and class-leading mileage, the Maruti WagonR 2025 strengthens its hold on India’s small car market. The addition of dual airbags across all variants and fuel efficiency of up to 38 KMPL make it one of the safest and most economical hatchbacks in its segment.
