Maruti Suzuki's 2025 Wagon R prioritizes safety with six airbags standard across all variants, aligning with similar upgrades in other models like Brezza and Celerio.

India's best-selling car gets safer!

Maruti Suzuki has given its popular tall-boy hatchback, the Wagon R, a major safety upgrade for 2025. The updated Wagon R now comes with six airbags as standard across all variants. The addition of six airbags �?which includes dual front airbags, side airbags for front occupants, and curtain airbags �?aligns the Wagon R with a growing list of Maruti Suzuki cars that have adopted this safety enhancement recently. Other models like the Brezza, Grand Vitara, Eeco and Celerio have also been upgraded in a similar manner.

In terms of safety, the model gets features like ABS with EBD, electronic stability program, rear parking sensors, and central locking. Maruti has not made any mechanical changes under the hood.

Both engines are paired with either a 5-speed manual or a 5-speed AMT gearbox. The 1.0-litre engine is also available with a factory-fitted CNG option.
Maruti recently announced a price hike of up to Rs 15,000 for the Wagon R, though detailed variant-wise pricing for the updated model is yet to be revealed.
