This Range Rover Evoque Was Once A Maruti Vitara Brezza

Maruti Brezza is one of the top-selling cars offered by the largest automaker in the Indian market. Maruti has recently launched the facelift model of the compact SUV with subtle cosmetic updates outside and inside along with a new petrol engine. We are not going to talk about the new Maruti Brezza because today, we have a video of the pre-facelift model of the car which has been customized into Land Rover Evoque. The sub-4-meter SUV costs around Rs 10 lakh (mid-spec trim) and the overall customization cost to turn the Brezza into the Evoque-inspired model is around Rs 6 lakh. The modifications are only limited to cosmetics as no upgrades have been made to the frame, engine or other internal components of the SUV. Up front, the Brezza-specific grille has been replaced by Range Rover Evoque-inspired blacked-out grille.

Moreover, the headlamps are from Evoque and even now the bumper gets similar LED DRLs. Moreover, the front skid plate is inspired by Range Rover Evoque. The side profile of the SUV features sporty looking alloy wheels along with red-painted brake callipers. Furthermore, the rear profile of the car has also been redesigned as it gets Evoque-like taillights and a sport-looking spoiler. The roof, along with all three pillars of the car, has been painted black whereas the lower part of the bumper gets faux skid plate and dual exhaust tips. The customizations are not limited to the exterior as the interior of the compact SUV gets silver-coloured highlights on door handles, air vents and steering wheel.

The modifier has also added red inserts on dashboard, seats and door pads. Mechanically, the SUV remains the same. The pre-facelift Maruti Brezza is powered by a 1.3-litre four-pot oil-burner, which puts out 90bhp of peak power and 200 Nm of twisting force. The engine comes coupled to a 5-speed MT. The carmaker has stopped offering this powertrain options with the SUV. It rubs shoulders with the likes of Hyundai Venue, Tata Nexon, Mahindra XUV300 and Ford EcoSport.
