A latest report on the internet suggests that Maruti Suzuki will be reviving the iconic Zen name for an upcoming product based on the indigenous concept showcased at the 2018 Auto Expo in February. It will be a subcompact SUV slotted below the highly successful Vitara Brezza.

The speculation indicates a production version of the Concept Future S, which was developed in India and featured a brand new styling direction. Ever since the cloaks were lifted off the concept, a road-going affordable SUV has been tipped for arrival in the near future.
