Top 5 Upcoming Midsize SUVs in India 2025–2026: New Launches from Top Brands
Here we have explained Top 5 Upcoming Midsize SUVs from Top Brands like Maruti Suzuki, Tata, Hyundai and more
The midsize SUV market in India is about to see big changes. Over the next year and a half, several car companies will launch new models or update existing ones. Brands like Maruti Suzuki, Hyundai, Mahindra, Tata, and Kia are getting ready to bring their latest SUVs to Indian roads. Some will be new versions of well-known cars, while others will be completely new names. Here’s a look at five of these upcoming SUVs that are expected to make a mark.
1. Maruti Suzuki e Vitara: An Electric Entry
Maruti Suzuki is getting ready to launch its first all-electric car, the e-Vitara. This five-seat SUV is expected to hit the market around September. It will use the Heartect-e skateboard platform, a special base for electric cars. The e-Vitara will offer two battery sizes: 49 kWh and 61 kWh. The larger 61 kWh battery is said to give a range of over 500 kilometers on a full charge. Maruti Suzuki will sell this new electric SUV through its Nexa dealerships.
2. New Tata Sierra: A Comeback with a Twist
The well-known Tata Sierra is making a return. The electric version of the Sierra will come out first, later this financial year. The petrol and diesel versions will follow after that. The electric Sierra will share many parts with the Harrier EV. For the petrol and diesel models, Tata plans to use a new 1.5-liter turbo petrol engine and a 2.0-liter diesel engine.
3. New Hyundai Creta: Major Updates Expected
Hyundai is likely to bring the next generation of its popular Creta SUV to India before the end of the next financial year. This new Creta will have many changes, both inside and out, compared to the current model. There is also a chance that a new hybrid engine will be offered. This hybrid engine might be shared with the upcoming Kia Seltos.
4. New Kia Seltos: A Full Makeover
Kia’s second-generation Seltos SUV has been seen testing many times. It is expected to arrive in India sometime next year. This new Seltos will have a completely new look on the outside and inside. The cabin will also get many updates. It is likely to feature a strong hybrid powertrain, a first for the Seltos, possibly using a 1.6-liter hybrid petrol engine.
5. New Mahindra XUV700: Refinements on the Way
Mahindra has started work on an updated XUV700. This refreshed model is expected to arrive early in 2026. The engines currently used in the XUV700—the 2.0-liter turbo petrol and 2.2-liter diesel—will likely stay the same. Most of the changes will be to the outside design and small updates inside the cabin. However, buyers can also expect more features to be added.
The Road Ahead for Indian SUVs
These upcoming midsize SUVs show how car companies are working to meet the changing needs of Indian buyers. With new electric options, hybrid choices, and updated designs, the market will offer more variety than ever before. These new models will likely bring more competition and excitement to the Indian automotive scene.
