    India’s biggest carmaker Maruti Suzuki is now ready to enter the electric car market. The company has confirmed that its first electric SUV, the e-Vitara, will be launched in India by the end of September 2025. This marks a major step for Maruti as it moves into the EV space, competing with brands like Tata, Hyundai, and MG.

    Earlier, the e-Vitara was expected to launch around March 2025, but the plan was delayed due to battery supply and software-related issues. Now, Maruti is fully set to start production at its Gujarat plant. The company has set a target to make 70,000 electric cars in FY26, most of which will be exported to over 100 countries including Europe and Japan.

    Battery Options and Power Variants

    The Maruti e-Vitara will come in two battery options — 49 kWh and 61 kWh. These batteries will offer different driving ranges and power outputs:

    • The 49 kWh version comes with a single motor delivering 142 bhp power and 189 Nm torque.
    • The 61 kWh version is also a single-motor setup, but produces 172 bhp.
    • The top variant will feature a dual motor setup with Suzuki’s AllGrip all-wheel drive system, offering 181 bhp and 300 Nm torque.

    This model is expected to deliver a maximum range of around 500 km on a full charge, especially with the larger battery. Maruti will also offer up to 10 years or 1.6 lakh km battery warranty, giving customers long-term assurance.

    Fast Charging and Design

    Charging the e-Vitara will be quick and convenient. It will support 7 kW AC home charging and up to 70 kW DC fast charging, allowing the battery to charge quickly on the go.

    In terms of design, the e-Vitara gets a bold look with LED projector headlamps, Y-shaped LED daytime running lights (DRLs), and 18-inch aerodynamic alloy wheels. The SUV was first showcased at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, where it gained a lot of attention for its futuristic design and practical features.

    Strong Export Plans but Worries in Indian Market

    While Maruti is focusing on global exports, the Indian car market is going through a tough phase, especially for small cars. Maruti chairman RC Bhargava recently said that small car sales in India are dropping because prices have gone up due to stricter rules. He also pointed out that most Indians still cannot afford cars priced above ₹10 lakh. That’s why two-wheelers are becoming more popular.

    Even though the e-Vitara is not a budget vehicle, Maruti hopes that this electric SUV will help the company build a strong image in the electric space, both in India and abroad. After its September launch, the e-Vitara will directly compete with models like Tata Curvv EV, Hyundai Creta EV, MG ZS EV, and Mahindra BE.6.
