Maruti Suzuki unveils electric SUV eVITARA at auto show

New Delhi, Jan 17 (UNI) Car market leader Maruti Suzuki on Friday unveiled its first electric sports utility vehicle (SUV) e VITARA at Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, the world's second biggest auto show being held in the national capital.
The e VITARA will be showcased through a phased rollout across the company's NEXA dealerships nationwide. Reaffirming its plan to establish India as a global hub for EV manufacturing, the e VITARA will be exported to more than 100 countries, including key markets like Japan and Europe.
"The e VITARA is an SUV built on the all-new platform, called HEARTECT-e, exclusively designed for electric vehicles. It comes with highly efficient battery pack options to deliver more than 500 km for 61kWh on a single charge," said Hisashi Takeuchi, Managing Director & CEO, Maruti Suzuki India.
The battery electric vehicle (BEV) features several premium and advanced features such as Level 2 ADAS (advanced driver assistance system), Integrated Digital Display, and Next-Gen Suzuki Connect.
Elaborating on the steps to increase EV adoption, Takeuchi said that the automaker's goal is to create electric eco-solutions for the customers.
"We call it “e for me”. We will offer smart home chargers along with installation support, leverage our vast network to provide fast charging support in the top 100 cities in the first phase, and then expand further. The idea is that, within these cities, every 5 to 10 km a customer finds a charging point by Maruti Suzuki," he said.
The top Maruti Suzuki executive said that the company is also preparing 1,500 EV enabled service workshops covering over 1,000 cities with specially trained manpower and special equipment to address all EV related support, including charging.
