The vehicle is going to compete with the likes of Renault Duster and Ford EcoSport, both being well established models in the segment. The company has not disclosed about the pricing, but it is being speculated that YBA could be offered at the retail price of INR 8 to 10 Lacs.

For transmission, there will be a 5-speed manual gearbox along with an optional CVT unit. It is also speculated that the SHVS (Smart Hybrid Vehicle System) technology could make its way to the YBA much like the recently introduced Ciaz and Ertiga Facelift.
