Is the Brezza's 1.5L naturally aspirated engine old hat in the age of turbo-petrol engines or does it still have its place?
In India, the compact SUV segment has been transitioning quickly towards turbocharged petrol engines. Most of the Brezza's competitors now have 1.0L or 1.2L turbo-petrol engines that offer a reasonable mix of performance and efficiency. On the other hand, the Brezza keeps a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine. The debate is on among the car enthusiasts and the potential buyers. Others claim that the Brezza’s engine seems old fashioned and underpowered, compared to turbocharged modern engines in overtaking and highway situations. But others say it is more reliable, easier to maintain, and gives a smoother drive in city conditions. Long term reliability and fuel efficiency in the real world is also a question. Is Maruti playing it safe with this engine or are they falling behind the competition?
Like that old Nokia phone, the 1.5L NA engine in the Brezza just works. It’s not as flashy as the turbo engines, but it’s reliable, easy to maintain and gets the job done. You don't really need all that turbo jazz for most city driving anyway.
