Key features and specs

49 kWh and 61 kWh battery pack options are anticipated.

Features
It has a dual-screen configuration with a 10.1-inch infotainment and a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, among other contemporary technology and safety features.
Level-2 ADAS, 7 airbags, a 360-degree camera, and other high-end features are anticipated for safety and driver assistance.
Market positioning and pricing
In India, the estimated ex-showroom price range is between ₹20 lakh and ₹25 lakh.
Distribution aimed at the mid-size electric SUV market through the Nexa dealer network.

Maruti's Electric Leap: The Bigger Picture
This introduction is a significant step for Maruti Suzuki into India's rapidly expanding EV market, where the company has previously relied on its bastion of gasoline and CNG.
In addition to supporting the "Make in India" campaign, producing the e-Vitara in Gujarat establishes the plant as a major export hub, with shipments currently in progress.
The e-Vitara's cheap pricing and stated range of more than 500 kilometers could be crucial in increasing the widespread adoption of EVs in India.
