At the 2018 Auto Expo, Maruti Suzuki gave us a
glimpse of the design direction its future compact cars will follow via the
Maruti Future-S Concept. IAB’s automotive illustrator’s rendering below
imagines the Future-S in its production form.
The concept form features complex LED lighting,
oversized tyres, and other bits that are unlikely to make to the production.
Our rendering retains the overall crossover profile of the car while infusing
it with more production-ready bits like halogen headlamps, a simpler bumper design,
and smaller, fuel efficiency-friendly wheels. The Maruti Future-S render
retains the flat, high set bonnet, upright A-pillars, and body cladding
characteristic of crossovers. The rear suicide doors have been replaced by more
conventional ones.
The Maruti Future-S concept is still more than a
year away from reaching the production stage. If reports are to be believed,
the concept will spawn a sub-4 m crossover positioned below the Vitara Brezza.
