Maruti Suzuki has begun producing its first all-electric SUV, the e Vitara, at its Gujarat-based Hansalpur plant. This is a major move for India’s largest automaker, as it finally joins the electric vehicle arena. Unveiled at the Auto Expo 2025, the e Vitara will roll out on Indian roads in the near future and will also be shipped overseas, as Maruti makes its global drive in the EV segment.
How Far Can it Travel on a Single Charge?
The e Vitara will have two battery pack choices a 61.1kWh and a 48.8kWh option. Both are paired with a single electric motor and can go up to 500km on one charge. That’s sufficient to put many of the world’s electric SUVs to shame. It will not be a bother to charge too with a DC fast charger, the SUV will charge from zero to 80 percent in only 50 minutes, making it convenient for everyday driving as well as extended road trips.
Pick What Suits You Best
Maruti will offer the e Vitara in three trims Delta, Zeta, and Alpha so customers can choose what works for them. On top of that, the car is available in 10 fashionable colours, including snazzy colours like Opulent Red, Arctic White, and Nexa Blue, along with cool dual-tone versions featuring a black roof. Maruti evidently desires the e Vitara to attract younger, technology-oriented customers looking for both style and performance.
Smart Additions You’ll Love
Step inside the e Vitara, and it’s loaded with modern features. There are dual 10-inch screens for infotainment and driving data, ventilated front seats for comfort, a 360-degree camera for easy parking, and an electric sunroof to add a premium touch. Safety hasn’t been left behind either, with seven airbags, ADAS features, and a wireless charger making the SUV a complete package. From its projector LED headlamps to alloy wheels measuring 18 inches, it’s an electric SUV that appears every inch modern.
Made in India, designed for the World
Although India will be the primary market, Maruti Suzuki has also reaffirmed that the e Vitara will be exported to some other countries. This indicates the company’s international push in the EV market. By manufacturing the SUV in Gujarat, Maruti isn’t only catering to India’s demand but also making the nation a base for the export of low-cost, high-quality EVs.
For decades, Maruti Suzuki has been the go-to brand in India for fuel-efficient cars. Now, the e Vitara marks the beginning of a new chapter. It’s Maruti’s first serious push into electric mobility, and experts believe it could reshape the EV market in India. With its strong service network, competitive pricing, and trusted brand name, Maruti is looking to make EVs accessible to a wider audience.
The official launch and pricing details are expected soon, and buyers can keep an eye on updates through Maruti Suzuki’s official site. The e Vitara could very well be the SUV that gets more Indians to finally make the switch to electric.
