At present, Maruti Suzuki's presence in the SUV market is at sub-optimal levels, the company's executive director, Shashank Srivastava, told Livemint. With the new Brezza on the wings, the automaker hopes SUVs will help it recapture lost market share. At the end of March 2022, the company's market share was 43% as compared to nearly 47% in the year-ago period. “We have only two out of the 47 SUV models in the industry. We need to do better here to get to 50% market share," he said.

Speaking about the new Brezza, Srivastava said that the company is expecting the model to fare well in the market. “This model is the first offering in our upcoming vibrant SUV portfolio", Hisashi Takeuchi, managing director and CEO of Maruti Suzuki, said.
