5 Best SUVs With a 360-Degree Camera Under Rs 12 Lakh (2026)
A 360-degree camera no longer needs a range-topping trim, but it is still set at trim level rather than model level. Across these five the camera appears between Rs 7.59 lakh and Rs 11.66 lakh, and only the Mahindra XUV 3XO bundles it with genuine Level 2 ADAS. The Maruti Brezza is the instructive exception: it sells turbo trims well under Rs 12 lakh and it does offer a 360 View Camera, but not on the same car, because the brochure reserves the camera for ZXi+.
Five SUVs on sale in India put a 360-degree camera on a trim priced under ₹12 lakh, starting with the Tata Punch Adventure at ₹7.59 lakh and topping out with the Mahindra XUV 3XO AX7 at ₹11.66 lakh. The XUV 3XO is the only one of the five that pairs the camera with genuine Level 2 ADAS on the same trim.
A 360-degree camera used to mean paying for a fully loaded, range-topping variant. That is no longer true across the board: several SUVs now put the feature on a mid-pack trim well under ₹12 lakh, though exactly which trim unlocks it, and what else comes with it, varies from one brand to the next.
This list covers five SUVs where a 360-degree camera is confirmed on a specific trim priced under ₹12 lakh ex-showroom, ranked by that trim's price rather than the model's overall starting price.
Key takeaways
- Tata Punch: the cheapest way onto this list at ₹7.59 lakh, on the mid-range Adventure trim.
- Nissan Magnite: pairs its camera with a 2025 5-star Global NCAP result built on standard six airbags, at ₹8.39 lakh.
- Tata Nexon: bundles the camera with twin 10.25-inch screens and a sunroof on the same Pure+ trim.
- Maruti Fronx: the only Maruti under this ceiling with the feature, and the camera is locked to a single trim, Alpha, across the whole range.
- Mahindra XUV 3XO: the most fully loaded entry here, pairing the camera with a panoramic sunroof and Level 2 ADAS on the same AX7 trim.
The five SUVs compared
| Model | Price | Camera system | Trim |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tata Punch | ₹7.59 lakh | 360-degree camera | Adventure |
| Nissan Magnite | ₹8.39 lakh | 360 Around View Monitor | Tekna |
| Tata Nexon | ₹10.12 lakh | 360-degree camera | Pure+ |
| Maruti Fronx | ₹10.75 lakh | 360 View Camera | Alpha |
| Mahindra XUV 3XO | ₹11.66 lakh | 360 View Camera | AX7 |
| A note on sources and on one car that did not make the cut. The Fronx figures come from Maruti's own current brochure and the NEXA price page. Tata, Nissan and Mahindra do not publish comparable brochure specification tables in the same form, so their figures are the best available published numbers rather than manufacturer spec-sheet entries. Boot capacities throughout are third-party figures. |
The Maruti Brezza is the obvious omission. It does offer a 360 View Camera (HD), and its 1.0-litre Turbo Boosterjet trims start well under ₹12 lakh, but the brochure's own feature grid puts the camera on the ZXi+ trim alone. The cheaper ZXi Turbo gets blind-spot warning, rear cross-traffic alert and front parking sensors, but no 360-degree camera. The ZXi+ automatic is ₹13.70 lakh, above this list's ceiling, so the Brezza does not qualify on a trim under ₹12 lakh.
1. Tata Punch
Price: ₹7.59 lakh, ex-showroom, for the Adventure petrol manual trim.
The Punch is the cheapest way onto this list by a comfortable margin, and it does not need the range-topping trim to get there. The camera arrives on the mid-pack Adventure variant, below the two trims above it, alongside a blind view monitor and auto headlamps that most budget SUVs still reserve for pricier trims.
360-camera and parking tech:
- 360-degree camera from the Adventure trim
- Blind View Monitor, bundled from the same trim
Premium features:
- Automatic climate control, push-button start-stop
- Auto headlamps, rain-sensing wipers
Engine: 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol, 88 PS and 115 Nm.
Mileage: 20.09 km/l, ARAI certified, on the manual petrol variant.
Transmission: 5-speed manual on this trim. AMT and a turbo-petrol manual sit on pricier trims.
Warranty: 3 years or 100,000 km.
Safety: 6 airbags standard, with ESP, hill-hold and descent control, and TPMS. Carries a 5-star Bharat NCAP rating.
Where it falls short: 88 PS is the least powerful engine here, and the turbo-petrol that changes that is not offered on this camera-equipped trim.
2. Nissan Magnite
Price: ₹8.39 lakh, ex-showroom, for the Tekna petrol manual trim.
Nissan calls its system a 360 Around View Monitor, and the Tekna trim is the first in the range to get it, arriving with cruise control and glovebox cooling on the same variant. It is also the only car here backed by a Global NCAP result from 2025 rather than an older, less representative test.
360-camera and parking tech:
- 360 Around View Monitor, from the Tekna trim
- Rear parking sensors
Premium features:
- Cruise control, glovebox cooling
- Wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay
Engine: 1.0-litre naturally aspirated petrol, 71 PS and 96 Nm.
Mileage: 19.4 km/l, ARAI certified, on the manual petrol variant.
Transmission: 5-speed manual on this trim. AMT and turbo-petrol options sit on other trims.
Warranty: 2 years or 50,000 km standard, extendable up to 10 years or 200,000 km.
Safety: 6 airbags standard, with ESC, traction control and hill-hold assist. Carries a 5-star Global NCAP rating from 2025, reflecting the current six-airbags-as-standard specification.
Where it falls short: the shortest standard warranty here before an extension is bought, and the least powerful engine of the group.
3. Tata Nexon
Price: ₹10.12 lakh, ex-showroom, for the Pure+ trim.
The Nexon bundles its 360-degree camera with twin 10.25-inch screens, automatic climate control and a sunroof on the same Pure+ trim, making it one of the more feature-dense entries at this price.
360-camera and parking tech:
- 360-degree camera from the Pure+ trim
- Twin 10.25-inch displays for infotainment and instrumentation
Premium features:
- Sunroof, automatic climate control
- Wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay
Engine: 1.2-litre turbo-petrol, 120 PS and 260 Nm between 1,500 and 2,750 rpm.
Mileage: 17.44 km/l, ARAI certified, on the manual petrol variant.
Transmission: 6-speed manual on this trim. AMT and DCT options sit elsewhere in the range.
Warranty: 3 years or 100,000 km, whichever comes first.
Safety: 6 airbags standard, with ESP and hill-hold assist. Carries a 5-star Bharat NCAP rating.
Where it falls short: the lowest ARAI mileage here, and the automatics that would improve on it are reserved for pricier trims.
4. Maruti Fronx
Price: ₹10.75 lakh, ex-showroom, for the Alpha 1.0-litre Turbo manual trim.
The Fronx's 360 View Camera is exclusive to the Alpha trim, the only place in the entire range where it appears. Every other trim, Sigma through Zeta, skips it regardless of what else is fitted.
360-camera and parking tech:
- 360 View Camera, exclusive to the Alpha trim
- Head-Up Display, also Alpha-exclusive
Premium features:
- Suzuki Connect with 40+ connected car features
- Wireless charger
Engine: 1.0-litre Turbo Boosterjet petrol, 73.6 kW (100.06 PS) at 5,500 rpm and 147.6 Nm from 2,000 to 4,500 rpm.
Mileage: 21.5 km/l on this manual, ARAI certified.
Boot space: 308 litres, the one boot figure on this list that comes from a manufacturer brochure.
Transmission: 5-speed manual on this trim. The 6-speed automatic on the same trim is ₹12.03 lakh, above this list's ceiling.
Warranty: 3 years or 100,000 km, extendable up to 6 years or 160,000 km.
Safety: 6 airbags standard, with ESP and hill-hold assist. The Fronx has no published Bharat NCAP or Global NCAP rating as of this writing.
Where it falls short: no Bharat NCAP rating to weigh against the Punch's or Nexon's 5-star results, and the smallest boot here.
5. Mahindra XUV 3XO
Price: ₹11.66 lakh, ex-showroom, for the AX7 petrol manual trim.
The XUV 3XO is the most fully loaded entry at its price, pairing the 360 View Camera with a panoramic sunroof, leather seats and genuine Level 2 ADAS on the same AX7 trim. Nothing else here matches that combination without moving to a pricier trim or a different model.
360-camera and parking tech:
- 360 View Camera
- Blind spot monitor
Premium features:
- Panoramic sunroof, leather seats
- Level 2 ADAS: adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, traffic sign recognition
Engine: 1.2-litre turbo-petrol (mStallion TGDi), 129 PS and 230 Nm.
Mileage: 20 km/l, ARAI certified, on this manual trim.
Transmission: 6-speed manual on this trim. Automatic options sit on other trims of the same engine.
Warranty: 3 years or 100,000 km.
Safety: 6 airbags standard, with electronic stability control and Level 2 ADAS. Carries a 5-star Bharat NCAP rating.
Where it falls short: the priciest entry here, and the only one without an automatic option on this exact camera-equipped trim.
Conclusion
A 360-degree camera under ₹12 lakh no longer means settling for a stripped-down version of the feature. What separates these five is what comes with it: some trims add little beyond the camera and basic comfort kit, while the XUV 3XO bundles it with driver-assistance features that used to be reserved for cars twice the price.
The Brezza's absence is the useful lesson here. A model can offer a 360-degree camera and a sub-₹12 lakh trim without offering both on the same car, and a spec sheet read at model level rather than trim level will get that wrong. Warranty terms, engine character and crash-test currency vary enough within this list that the camera alone should not decide the purchase.
