New Hatchbacks Under ₹10 Lakh: Upcoming Models to Watch Out For

If you’re considering a new hatchback with a budget of under ₹10 Lakh, waiting a few months might be advantageous. Several new models and facelifts are expected to hit the market soon. Maruti Suzuki plans to launch a hybrid version of the Fronx, potentially offering an alternative to CNG models like the Baleno, Fronx, and Swift. Hyundai is also preparing to introduce a compact crossover hybrid model, the Bayon, powered by a new 1.2-litre Kappa engine. Additionally, Maruti Suzuki is planning a new 5-seater SUV, the Escudo, positioned between the Vitara Brezza and Grand Vitara, to compete with models like the Kia Seltos and Hyundai Creta. Renault India is also set to revamp its lineup, with plans for a new Duster and an EV hatchback, the Kwid EV, which resembles the Dacia Spring EV.
