The new feature list includes the likes of a 360-degree camera, ventilated front seats and new Smartplay infotainment system with 7.0-inch display. The top models are also expected to four airbags as standard.
The Maruti XL6 rivals the likes of the Kia Carens, Mahindra Marrazo, Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Volkswagen Taigun and Jeep Compass.
