Maruti Suzuki, India’s largest carmaker, is gearing up to launch its first fully electric vehicle, the E Vitara. The model was first unveiled at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, and anticipation has been building ever since.

Launch Timeline

Production of the Maruti Suzuki E Vitara began in August 2025, with the first unit flagged off by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on 26 August. While the company has confirmed a December launch window, several reports now suggest the electric SUV could debut on 2 December 2025. Maruti Suzuki has yet to officially announce the exact date.

Features

The E Vitara is expected to arrive with a premium feature set, including:

  • Panoramic sunroof
  • Fully automatic climate control
  • Ventilated front seats
  • Seven airbags
  • 360-degree camera
  • Electronic parking brake with auto-hold
  • Level 2 ADAS safety suite

These additions place the E Vitara among the most feature-rich vehicles in Maruti Suzuki’s line-up.

Design

The electric SUV carries a sharp, modern design similar to the prototype showcased earlier this year. The front end is expected to sport:

  • Y-shaped vertically stacked headlamps
  • A slim front grille
  • A charging port concealed beneath the Suzuki logo
  • Low-mounted fog lamps positioned below the number plate

Overall, the styling cues signal a more contemporary look for the brand’s EV range.

Powertrain and Range

The E Vitara is likely to be offered with two battery pack options—49 kWh and 61 kWh—both using BYD’s LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) technology.

Key powertrain expectations include:

  • 2WD and 4WD configurations
  • Up to 500 km claimed range for the larger battery variant
  • Multiple drive modes on AWD trims: Eco, Normal, Sport and Snow

With these specifications, the E Vitara aims to position itself competitively in India’s rapidly expanding EV segment.
