The next Hyundai Creta EV will compete with the Maruti e Vitara, which is anticipated to price for about Rs 20 lakh.

Over the years, Maruti has offered a wide range of vehicles and powertrain choices, but it was absent from the electric vehicle market. That is about to change, though, as Maruti’s first electric car will be the much-discussed e Vitara. The Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, which takes place from January 17 to 22, is where the e Vitara will make its premiere. 

Here is everything you need to know about Maruti’s impending electric SUV, including an overview of its features, design, interior, powertrain, and price. 

A Rugged Design

Maruti’s initial teaser for the e Vitara showed off the front end of the electric SUV, including the Y-shaped LED DRLs. In addition to the lighting components stated above, the Suzuki e Vitara, which was recently unveiled worldwide, had a hefty, blacked-out bumper with fog lamps in the lower half of it. We anticipate that the India-spec version’s general design components will resemble those of the global model.

In profile, it should have plenty of body cladding that gives it a macho look, along with 18-inch blacked-out alloy wheels (19-inch with AWD). It has a more contemporary appearance because the rear door handles are fixed to the C-pillar.

The rear features a roof-mounted spoiler, shark fin antenna, and connected LED tail lights.

A Sophisticated Interior With Premium Features

The inside will probably have two screens (one for the infotainment and the other for the driver’s display), similar to the global-spec version. The cockpit has vertically oriented air conditioning vents encircled by chrome accents and a sporty-looking two-spoke steering wheel.

Anticipate amenities like a head-up display, ventilated front seats, a panoramic sunroof, wireless phone charging, automatic climate control, and connected automobile technology.

Safety features such as a 360-degree camera, front and rear parking sensors, electronic stability control, an electronic parking brake with auto-hold, six airbags (as standard), and level-2 ADAS are likely to be included. It will be the first Maruti vehicle to have cutting-edge, high-end safety technology if the India-spec version is equipped with ADAS. 

What Powers It?

We anticipate that Maruti will provide the India-specified e Vitara with the same powertrain choices as the international model. The specifications are as follows: 

Although the precisely stated ranges have not yet been made public, we anticipate a range of up to 600 kilometers.

Rivals And Expected Price

It is anticipated that the Maruti e Vitara will cost approximately Rs 20 lakh (ex-showroom). It will face competition from the Mahindra BE 6, MG ZS EV, Tata Curvv EV, and the soon-to-be Hyundai Creta EV.
