If you have been sitting on the fence about buying a new Maruti Suzuki, May 2026 could be the month to finally make that move. India’s largest carmaker is rolling out attractive discounts and benefits across both its Arena and Nexa dealership channels, with savings ranging from Rs 37,500 on entry-level models to a substantial Rs 2.15 lakh on the premium Invicto MPV.
These benefits typically include a combination of consumer cash discounts, exchange bonuses (if you trade in your old car), scrappage bonuses (for older vehicles being scrapped), and institutional or corporate discounts. The strategy signals Maruti’s effort to clear inventory and maintain volume momentum ahead of the busy festive season later in the year.
Important Note: All offers mentioned are ex-showroom and may vary by city, variant, and dealer. Always confirm exact benefits with your local Arena or Nexa dealership before finalising your purchase. Offers on 2025 stock models may be higher than 2026 models.
Maruti Suzuki Arena — Complete Discount List
Maruti Victoris — Up to Rs 70,000
The Victoris, Maruti’s mid-size SUV competing with the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, and Honda Elevate, is getting the largest discount in the Arena lineup this month.

The total benefit of Rs 55,000 includes a Rs 25,000 consumer cash discount, up to Rs 25,000 in exchange or scrappage bonus, and a Rs 5,000 institutional offer. Priced between Rs 8.26 lakh and Rs 12.86 lakh, the Brezza competes with Tata Nexon, Kia Sonet, and Hyundai Venue.

MotorFocus Buyer’s Tip: The best value play this month is combining the Brezza’s Rs 25,000 cash discount with a trade-in exchange bonus. If you have an older car to exchange, your effective savings can reach Rs 55,000 or more. For premium buyers, the Grand Vitara Strong Hybrid’s road tax exemption in states like Rajasthan and UP is a genuinely significant saving that shouldn’t be overlooked.
