Maruti Suzuki eVitara Price, Features & Specifications in India

Maruti Suzuki has started exports of its first-ever electric SUV – the Maruti e Vitara (eVitara) – to more than 100 countries, including Japan and Europe. The company is prioritizing global markets before introducing the electric SUV in India. However, exports also faced delays due to external challenges such as the supply shortage of rare earth magnets. Despite this, Maruti Suzuki has confirmed that the e Vitara India launch will take place before the end of the current financial year.

Competition and Price Prediction

In India, the Maruti e Vitara will compete with the Hyundai Creta Electric, MG ZS EV, Tata Curvv EV, and Mahindra BE 6. While the official price will be announced closer to the launch, market estimates suggest that the e Vitara price will start from around ₹20 lakh onwards. The EV will be produced at Suzuki’s Gujarat manufacturing facility, which serves as the global hub for this electric model.

Battery Options and Driving Range

Built on the Heartect-e platform, the Maruti eVitara will come with two battery choices – 49kWh and 61kWh – both featuring advanced LFP (Lithium Iron-Phosphate) blade cells supplied by BYD.

• The 49kWh battery will power a single motor that delivers 144bhp and 189Nm torque.

• The 61kWh single-motor variant will generate 174bhp with the same 189Nm torque.

• The dual-motor AWD (AllGrip-e) setup, available only with the 61kWh version, will include an additional 65bhp motor, resulting in a combined output of 184bhp and 300Nm torque.

The Maruti e Vitara range will exceed 500 km per charge (most likely with the larger 61kWh AWD variant). In Trail Mode, the All Grip-e AWD system automatically applies brakes to wheels losing traction and redistributes power to those with grip, mimicking the effect of a limited-slip differential.

Market Impact and Outlook

With its strong performance, premium features, and competitive positioning, the Maruti e Vitara is set to become one of the most awaited Maruti electric cars in India. As the company continues to dominate the domestic market, the arrival of the eVitara could also positively impact Maruti Suzuki share price and strengthen Suzuki’s EV strategy globally.

The official Maruti e Vitara launch date in India will be announced soon, but the brand has already confirmed its debut before March 2026.
