Maruti Suzuki is gearing up to introduce its first electric vehicle, the e Vitara, to the Indian market in early 2025. The e Vitara, which made its global debut in Milan, Italy, is set to make its Indian debut at the 2025 Bharat Mobility Global Expo in January, followed by a market launch in March 2025.
The e Vitara is more than just an electric version of the eVX concept. It boasts a sleek and futuristic design with sharp lines, muscular fenders, and eye-catching lighting elements. This stylish SUV will compete with a host of electric rivals, including the Hyundai Creta EV, Honda Elevate EV, Citroen Basalt EV, Tata Curvv EV, Mahindra XUV400, and the upcoming Mahindra BE series.
The e Vitara will be manufactured at Suzuki Motor Corporation’s facility in Gujarat, with initial battery supplies sourced from BYD. It will be available in both single-motor and dual-motor configurations, powered by 49 kWh and 61 kWh battery packs, respectively. The larger battery pack is expected to offer a range exceeding 500 km on a single charge, and the e Vitara will support DC fast charging.
The all-wheel-drive variant of the e Vitara will deliver 184 hp and 300 Nm of torque, while the front-wheel-drive version will produce 144 hp and 189 Nm of torque. The interior of the e Vitara is equipped with a tech-laden cabin featuring dual digital screens, advanced driver-assistance systems, automatic climate control, a 360-degree camera, and other modern amenities.
The e Vitara is a significant step for Maruti Suzuki as it ventures into the electric vehicle segment. It showcases the company’s commitment to sustainable mobility and its ability to deliver cutting-edge technology to the Indian market.
