Markets
India
The Victoris in India is available in eight variants across FWD and AWD configurations, which are LXi, VXi, ZXi, ZXi (O), ZXi+, ZXi+ (O), ZXi+ 4WD, and ZXi+(O) AWD.[4]
South Africa
The Across went on sale in South Africa on 11 March 2026, with the two grades: GL and GLX. For powertrains, all variants are powered by the K15C 1.5-litre petrol MHEV paired with either a 5-speed manual (standard on GL) or 6-speed automatic (standard on GLX, optional on GL).[6]
Powertrain
The Victoris shares identical powertrain options with the Grand Vitara. This includes a mild hybrid model, marketed as "Smart Hybrid" by Suzuki, using the 1.5-liter K15C four-cylinder engine. For the strong hybrid model, the Victoris adopted the Toyota Hybrid System (marketed as "Intelligent Electric Hybrid" by Suzuki), which includes Toyota's 1.5-liter M15D-FXE three-cylinder engine.
A CNG-powered model is also available using the 1.5-liter K15C four-cylinder engine. It is equipped with an underbody CNG tank, making it the first passenger car in the world to adopt such CNG tank position.[7]
