Maruti New Bus 2025 – A great gift for small businessmen and school transport
Whenever someone in India mentions the name “Maruti Suzuki”, the first three things that come to mind are reliable vehicles, easy on the pocket and long-lasting performance. Be it the Maruti 800, which fulfilled every common family’s dream of owning a car, or the Omni and today’s Eco Van, Maruti has always made vehicles by understanding the needs of Indian customers.
Now in 2025, Maruti is taking a new step. This time it is the turn of “Maruti New Bus 2025”. This vehicle is being specially designed for commercial and semi-private transport. That is, if you are thinking of running a school bus, starting a shuttle for office staff, or doing a business of carrying passengers between small cities, then this mini bus can be useful for you.
Maruti’s return – a new chapter in India’s transport sector
For a long time, Maruti did not focus much on light commercial vehicles (LCVs). Yes, Omni and Eeco sold well and people still like them, but there was always a lack – a small bus that gives comfort to the passengers, consumes less fuel and whose price can be afforded by the common man.
Now Maruti has decided to fill that gap. According to auto industry sources, Maruti New Bus 2025 can be launched between October to December 2025. The company has not yet announced the official date, but preparations are in full swing.
Design – New style of mini bus
The design of this vehicle will be neither too big nor too small. It is being made in such a way that it can fit in all three places – school, office and local transport.
Possible design features:
- High roof – so that no one has to bend their head while sitting inside.
- Wide doors and strong handle bars – Allows easy boarding and deboarding for children and the elderly.
- Clean front look – Appears reliable at first glance.
- Side sliding doors – Makes it easy to park even in tight spaces.
Imagine how comfortable this bus will be when it passes through crowded lanes or narrow roads of small towns.
Features – Comfortable for both driver and passenger
Not all features have been confirmed before the launch, but going by past experiences and reports, it is expected to have the following features:
- Manual and power steering options
- AC and non-AC variants
- Side parking sensors
- Adjustable seat for driver
- Comfortable semi-reclining seats for passengers
- USB charging ports on every seat or in the last two rows
- Rear luggage space
- Digital instrument panel and basic music system
- Dashboard design like the Eeco van but more modern
For example:
Suppose a school buys it. While going to drop the children in the morning, there will be a facility to keep each child’s bag, while the driver will also feel comfortable during long duty.
Safety – Complete safety of children and staff
Safety is the most important aspect in any vehicle in today’s time. Maruti will pay full attention to safety in this mini bus as well.
Possible safety features:
- Dual front airbags
- ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) + EBD (Electronic Brakeforce Distribution)
- Engine immobilizer – reduced risk of theft
- Rear view camera (in higher models)
- Strong monocoque body
If it comes in school bus edition, then these features are sure to be there:
- Emergency exit door
- Speed governor (to prevent high speed)
- Space to keep first-aid kit
Boot space – Ideal for both travel and business
Maruti New Bus 2025 is expected to have a boot space of 400 to 600 liters. It can vary according to the seating arrangement.
Useful for:
- Schools: Facility to keep children’s bags.
- Travel operators: To keep suitcases and trolleys.
- Small traders: To keep delivery packages or luggage.
If the rear seats can be folded, then even more luggage can be kept.
Fuel options and mileage – light on the pocket, powerful to drive
Maruti has always been known for its mileage. This identity will be seen in this new bus as well. Both petrol and CNG options will be available in it.
Possible variants and mileage:

| AC variant | Petrol | 7 seater | 18-19 kmpl |

Especially the CNG variant can be very beneficial for schools and small businessmen, because its cost will be very low.
