Black has always stood for elegance, power, and timeless style. Maruti Suzuki is now bringing that appeal to life with the launch of the Grand Vitara PHANTOM BLAQ Edition. This is not just a special paint. it’s a lifestyle statement of quiet luxury, designed for those who prefer sophistication over flash.
Celebrating 10 Years of NEXA
The PHANTOM BLAQ Edition was introduced to mark 10 years of Maruti’s NEXA premium retail network. Launched in August 2025, this version comes in an exclusive matte-black finish the first of its kind directly from the factory. It is offered only in the Strong Hybrid Alpha+ variant, highlighting a blend of performance, efficiency, and style.
A Bold Look Outside

On the road, the SUV makes an immediate impression. The matte-black bodywork creates a stealthy yet refined look, while gloss-black elements replace chrome on the grille, alloys, and trims. The sharp NEXTre LED DRLs, sculpted sides, and sleek tail lamps add to its premium presence. It doesn’t need to be flashy it naturally draws attention.
Stylish Cabin in Black
Inside, the dark theme continues with all-black upholstery highlighted by Champagne Gold accents. The result is a cabin that feels modern and elegant at the same time. Comfort features include ventilated front seats, an 8-way powered driver’s seat, and a panoramic sunroof that opens up the space and brings in light.
Modern Tech Features
The SUV comes with a 9-inch SmartPlay Pro+ infotainment screen supporting wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Music is powered by a Clarion premium sound system, while a 360° camera, Head-Up Display, and wireless charging add convenience for everyday use. With Suzuki Connect, drivers also get connected car technology for safety alerts and remote access.
Hybrid Power and Safety

The PHANTOM BLAQ runs on a 1.5L strong-hybrid petrol engine paired with an electric motor. This setup offers smooth performance, fuel efficiency of nearly 28 kmpl, and a refined driving experience. For protection, it comes with the complete NEXA Safety Shield six airbags, ABS with EBD, ESP, Hill Hold Assist, and parking sensors.
Why This Edition Stands Out
While many carmakers offer black editions, Maruti Suzuki has given it a different meaning here. The PHANTOM BLAQ isn’t about aggression it’s about quiet luxury. The Grand Vitara has already sold over 300,000 units in India, proving its popularity. This new edition adds an extra layer of style and exclusivity, making it one of the most desirable SUVs of the year. The PHANTOM BLAQ Edition is more than just a car it’s a statement of taste, class, and individuality.
