MG Starlight 560: 7 New 7-Seater SUVs Launching Soon If you’re in the market for a three-row family SUV, waiting a bit longer could unlock nearly seven fresh options from Maruti Suzuki, Toyota, Tata, Mahindra, Kia and MG. These new 6/7-seater SUVs are scheduled to arrive by the end of this year. Key highlights include the MG Starlight 560, a plug-in hybrid that may offer both five and seven-seat configurations, with a combined driving range exceeding 1,000 km.

The upcoming Maruti Suzuki and Toyota 7-seater SUVs are testing longer versions of the Grand Vitara and Urban Cruiser Hyryder, expected to debut in late 2026. They will share design and powertrain with their five-seater counterparts but offer more space. Meanwhile, the Tata Safari EV is confirmed for launch during Diwali 2026, borrowing 63kWh and 75kWh battery packs from the Tata Sierra EV and promising a range of over 500 km.

Mahindra’s Scorpio N facelift arrives near Diwali with minor design tweaks, a larger touchscreen, and a digital driver display. Kia will introduce its first hybrid SUV in India, the Sorento, around September or October 2026, featuring a hybridized 1.5L petrol engine. The MG Starlight 560, based on the Wuling Starlight, uses a 1.5L petrol engine and a 20.5kWh battery for 125 km of electric range.

The next-generation Toyota Fortuner debuts globally by late 2026, with an India launch in early 2027, adding ADAS as a key feature. In conclusion, waiting until late 2026 or early 2027 could give you a much wider selection of three-row family SUVs from major automakers.
