The Tata Nexon is the highest selling compact SUV and also the highest selling SUV in the country. The Tata Nexon has a starting price of Rs 7.54 lakh (ex-showroom) for the XE variant while the top spec variant is priced at Rs 13.69 lakh (Ex-showroom) for the diesel AT variant. The Tata Nexon will be the biggest competition to the new Maruti Suzuki Brezza.

The Mahindra XUV300 is priced at Rs 8.41 lakh (Ex-showroom) for the base variant and goes upto Rs 13.92 lakh (ex-showroom) for the top-spec variant. However, it doesn't get as extensive features list as the new Brezza. 

Maruti Suzuki Brezza vs Toyota Urban Cruiser

The most expensive compact SUV in India is the Toyota Urban Cruiser, which is based on the Maruti Suzuki Brezza. The Toyota Urban Cruiser is priced at Rs 9.02 lakh (ex-showroom), while the top spec variant is priced at Rs 11.73 lakh (ex-showroom). Since it's based on Brezza, there's no diesel engine option available for the buyers.
