- Invictois a rebadged version of the Toyota Innova Hycross

- To get Nexa signature headlights and tail lights

Maruti Suzuki recently confirmed the debut date of its upcoming Invicto MPV in India. It is set to be revealed on 5 July followed by its price reveal in the coming months. Ahead of its unveiling, the production-ready mule was spied testing at night on Indian roads.

Spy images and exterior styling of the Maruti Invicto

The Maruti Invicto is a rebadged version of Toyota’s MPV offering, the Innova Hycross. Just like other products under this joint venture, the Invicto will share most of its design elements, features, and interior layout with the Toyota cousin. However, as seen in the spy images, the Invicto will get revised Nexa signature three-block LED wrap-around tail lights.

Recently, the image of the front grille of the Invicto MPV surfaced online revealing the changes. The Innova-based Invicto will likely get redesigned three-pod LED DRLs, a hexagonal-mesh patterned grille, a new set of headlamps, and alloy wheels. Other bits and pieces like the front fenders, door panels, and rear tailgate design will likely remain identical to the Innova Hycross.

Maruti Invicto MPV’s expected features

In terms of features, the Invicto MPV will offer if not more, the same set of features as available with the Innova Hycross. The feature list will include a large free-standing touchscreen infotainment system, a digital instrument cluster, climate control, cruise control, and powered ottoman seats. It could also get a panoramic sunroof, a 360-degree surround camera, and ADAS tech.

Engine specifications of the Maruti Invicto

Under the hood, the Invicto MPV will likely be powered by a 2.0-litre petrol engine paired with a hybrid motor. This motor will be mated to an e-CVT unit. Whether it will get the standard petrol engine is yet to be revealed.

Rivals of the Maruti Invicto MPV

Upon arrival, the Maruti Invicto will compete alongside the Toyota Innova Hycross, Kia Carens, Tata Safari, Mahindra XUV700, Hyundai Alcazar, MG Hector Plus, and Jeep Meridian in the Indian market.
