Maruti Wagon R 2025 & Hybrid Model – Full Review with Features and Price
The Maruti Wagon R has been one of the most popular hatchbacks in India for years. Known for its practicality, easy driving, and family-friendly design, it remains a top choice in the budget segment. For 2025, Maruti is adding more updates to the Wagon R lineup, and the big buzz is around the Hybrid Maruti Wagon R.
Design and Styling
The Wagon R continues with its tall-boy design, which has been its signature since launch. The new model has small but noticeable changes: a refreshed grille, sleeker headlamps, and new bumpers. The shape is still boxy, but Maruti has added subtle modern touches that make it look fresh without losing its identity.
Color Options
Buyers will get a choice of solid shades such as white, silver, and grey along with brighter options like blue and red. Dual-tone variants with contrasting roofs are expected, giving younger buyers more style flexibility.
Features and Interiors
Inside, the Wagon R sticks to its strength – space and comfort. The tall design allows more headroom and makes getting in and out easier. The higher trims get a touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, steering-mounted controls, and electrically adjustable mirrors. Practical storage spaces and foldable rear seats add to its daily usability.
Engine Options and Mileage
Currently, the Wagon R offers two petrol engine options: a 1.0-litre three-cylinder and a 1.2-litre four-cylinder. Both engines are tuned for fuel efficiency and are paired with either a 5-speed manual or an AMT gearbox. Mileage remains one of its biggest selling points, delivering around 22–25 km/l depending on the variant.

Safety Features
Maruti has been gradually improving safety across its cars. Standard features include dual airbags, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors, and seat belt reminders. Higher trims could also feature electronic stability control and hill-hold assist, making the Wagon R more dependable for highways and hilly areas.
Luxury & Premium Touches
While the Wagon R has always been budget-focused, Maruti is slowly adding small premium features. Push-button start, LED DRLs, and a better sound system are expected in top trims. These touches bring it closer to what city buyers now look for in an entry-level family car.

Price and Variants
The current Wagon R is priced between ₹5.5 lakh and ₹7.5 lakh (ex-showroom). The Hybrid Maruti Wagon R may come at a slightly higher price, starting around ₹6 lakh. Even with the increase, it would remain one of the most affordable hybrid hatchbacks in India.
Final Review
The Maruti Wagon R 2025 stays true to its roots – spacious, efficient, and reliable. The addition of hybrid technology could make it even more appealing for city buyers who want higher mileage without stretching their budget. For anyone looking for a practical family hatchback with modern updates, the Wagon R remains a strong contender in 2025.
