Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza vs Nissan Magnite | Two 4 Stars Battle it out!

The sub-compact SUV has never been this lit. Maruti Suzuki has the Vitara Brezza, Nissan has the Magnite, and other companies, too have cars on offer in this segment. We won’t be naming all of them, or else, that is a long list and would cover half of the article. I have chosen the two on the basis of their NCAP ratings. So, without any further delay, let’s get started.

Which Sub-Compact SUV offers better performance?

  • None of the sub-compact SUVs offers a diesel engine. As for petrol, Magnite has two engines on option, a naturally aspirated and a turbocharged.
  • Magnite’s turbocharged engine is the most powerful in the comparison and comes mated to a CVT. This engine also offers the best fuel mileage.
  • Maruti Suzuki’s Vitara Brezza, the wicked SUV surely has a decent engine and has one of the most refined engines from Maruti.

  • Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza is wider and taller than the Magnite. But, when it comes to ground clearance, Magnite gets ahead of Brezza. This means that, inside the cabin, Brezza offers better headroom.
  • Magnite offers better bootspace, though the difference is not a major one.
