In a world full of cars chasing sleek looks and fancy features, Maruti Wagon R has stayed true to what Indian families actually need—and that’s where the 2025 Wagon R shines. It doesn’t try to be a showstopper. Instead, it shows up where it really matters: space, comfort, efficiency, and practicality.

Think of it as the trusty, no-drama friend who’s been with you through it all—just now dressed a little better, talks smarter, and handles life even more smoothly.

Same Tall-Boy DNA, Now a Bit More Grown Up

The 2025 Wagon R still rocks the iconic tall-boy silhouette we all know and love, but with a few thoughtful updates. The stance feels more planted, and the details more refined.

• The driver seat now drops 30mm lower, making it comfy for all heights
  
• Voice-activated tilt-adjustable steering wheel – no more fiddling while driving
  
• Wider door openings make it super easy for elderly family members to get in and out
  

The design doesn’t scream for attention, but it’s smart and functional—exactly what Wagon R buyers are after.

Two Trusted Engines, Now Even More Efficient

Under the hood, Maruti keeps it simple and effective:

• 1.0L K10C Petrol – 67 PS & 89 Nm
  
• 1.2L K12M Petrol – 83 PS & 113 Nm
  
• Both come with 5-speed manual or AMT options
  
• Mild hybrid tech now standard for better fuel economy
  

Whether you’re commuting through city chaos or cruising on open roads, the Maruti Wagon R delivers smooth, no-nonsense performance.

Inside: Simple, Smart, and Surprisingly Spacious

Step inside, and it’s easy to see why Wagon R remains such a favorite for Indian families:

• Split 60:40 rear seats fold down flat for added flexibility
  
• New SmartPlay Pro+ 17.7cm touchscreen with wireless Android Auto & Apple CarPlay

It’s a cabin that’s been clearly designed around real-world use. It’s not flashy, but it’s just right.

Ride Quality Tuned for India’s Not-So-Perfect Roads

The 2025 Maruti Wagon R gets updated suspension, tuned specifically for our roads:

This is a car that doesn’t complain, even when the road disappears.

Fuel Efficiency That Makes Perfect Sense

Maruti knows Indian buyers love numbers, and the Maruti Wagon R delivers:

• Up to 22.5 km/l on the 1.0L manual
  
• Hybrid tech + light build = low running costs
