Maruti Suzuki is all set to enter the EV market with its first electric SUV, the Maruti e Vitara, which is expected to launch in March 2025.
The SUV has already begun arriving at dealerships across India, giving a glimpse of what’s to come. Additionally, select dealerships have started accepting offline bookings, further confirming its imminent launch.
Design and Features – A Premium Offering
The e Vitara was recently spotted at a dealership finished in Nexa Blue, the same shade showcased at the Bharat Mobility Expo 2025. The electric SUV will also be available in five monotone and four dual-tone color options.
The exterior features a sleek design, with Y-shaped LED DRLs, LED projector headlights, and front fog lamps. The side profile sports 18-inch aerodynamically designed alloy wheels with black cladding, while the rear features a three-piece LED tail light setup connected by a glossy black strip.
Inside, the e Vitara boasts a modern, high-tech cabin. The 2-spoke steering wheel, dual-screen setup, and rectangular AC vents add to its premium appeal.
Other highlights include:
10.25-inch digital driver’s display
10.1-inch touchscreen infotainment system
Wireless phone charging
Electronic parking brake
Auto-dimming IRVM
Semi-leatherette seat upholstery
Maruti has not yet revealed the variant-wise feature list, but the showcased model is believed to be the top-spec Alpha variant.
Electric Powertrain and Expected Range
The e Vitara will be available with two battery pack options:
| Battery Pack | Power | Torque | Claimed Range | Drivetrain |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 49 kWh | 144 PS | 192.5 Nm | TBA | FWD |
| 61 kWh | 174 PS | 192.5 Nm | Over 500 km | FWD |
The larger 61 kWh battery pack is expected to deliver over 500 km of range, making it one of the most efficient EVs in its segment.
Expected Price and Rivals
The Maruti e Vitara is expected to be priced from Rs 17 lakh (ex-showroom, pan-India). It will compete against the Tata Curvv EV, Hyundai Creta Electric, Mahindra BE 6, and MG ZS EV.
With a premium feature set, spacious interior, and competitive pricing, the e Vitara is shaping up to be a strong contender in the growing electric SUV segment. Stay tuned for further updates as Maruti prepares for its much-awaited EV debut in India.
