Maruti YFG Mid-Sized SUV
Maruti Suzuki will also launch the new mid-sized SUV, codenamed YFG before the end of 2022. The new model will be jointly developed by Suzuki and Toyota. The mid-sized SUV will be based on Toyota’s DNGA (Daihatsu New Generation Architecture) platform. This is the same platform that underpins the new Toyota Avanza & the Raize SUV. It will be manufactured at Toyota’s Bidadi based plant.
The Maruti YFG mid-sized SUV will look different from the Toyota’s version of the SUV, codenamed D22.
