Under the hood, the XL6 is expected to be available with the 1.5-litre BS6 petrol engine which was introduced with the second-gen Ertiga. It makes 95PS of power and 138Nm of peak torque. This engine will be offered with either a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic gearbox. Maruti is not expected to offer the 1.5-litre diesel engine available on the Ertiga with the XL6 since the carmaker plans to discontinue all diesel models by April 2020.

The XL6 is scheduled to go on sale on 21 August 2019. It is likely to be priced at a premium over the standard Ertiga petrol (Rs 7.55 lakh to Rs 10.05 lakh, ex-showroom pan-India). Once launched, it will take on the 7-seater Mahindra Marazzo.
