Read on for more information about upcoming cars in India under 20 lakhs and what launches you can look forward to for the remaining year.

Mahindra Scorpio

The Mahindra Scorpio has been one of the most popular SUVs on sale in India for a long time running. And fans may rejoice since it's slated for a massive update this year. Expect not just mechanical and visual updates in the new upcoming Scorpio in India, but also a whole new design and underpinnings. Powering the Scorpio will most likely be a 2.0 -litre turbo petrol and a 2.2-litre turbo diesel engine option similar to the engine units previously seen in the current-gen Scorpio. However, the rest of the upcoming car is slated to be an all-new platform from the ground up. The new Scorpio may be priced beginning at ₹12 lakhs (Ex-Showroom).

Maruti Suzuki Brezza

Maruti Suzuki is slated to launch the Brezza this year, a much-needed update of the outgoing Vitara Brezza. The sub-four-meter compact SUV is rumoured to hit showrooms middle of 2022 and will most likely share underpinnings with Maruti Suzuki's S-Cross. The new Brezza will get a long list of creature comforts, improved safety tech and better build and high tensile material for additional safety benefits. Powering it will most likely be the same 1.5-litre, four-cylinder petrol engine with mild-hybrid technology that does duties in the ongoing variant, of course, updated for current emission norms in the upcoming car. It'll most likely also boast updated power figures and better efficiency and the upcoming car may also be Maruti Suzuki's first offering to get its own, factory-fitted sunroof. The new Brezza may be priced around the ₹8-12 lakhs (Ex-Showroom) mark.

Volkswagen Virtus

Volkswagen recently revealed its mid-sized sedan, Virtus, which aims to be a replacement for the ageing Vento while also reviving the mid-sized sedan segment in India. While the Vento has long been discontinued now, the Virtus is yet to launch in mid-2022. Much like its cousin the Skoda Slavia, the Volkswagen Virtus is based on the MQB A0 IN underpinnings that do duties in other Skoda/Volkswagen platforms and will feature two engine units. On offer will be a 1.0-litre TSI engine and a 1.5-litre TSI turbo petrol unit, with the latter doing duties in a sportier GT line trim of the car. The upcoming car Volkswagen Virtus is expected to be priced around the ₹9-12 lakhs (Ex-Showroom) mark.
