Maruti Suzuki e Vitara delivers two battery pack choices including 48.8 kWh and 61.1 kWh capacity that provides up to 500 km range.
During Auto Expo 2025 Maruti Suzuki officially introduced the e Vitara as their first electric vehicle while entering the EV market segment. As Maruti Suzuki’s inaugural EV model, the e Vitara serves the rising market need in India for eco-friendly transportation options. This SUV mirrors the international design of its model but lacks the all-wheel drivetrain option that the original has. The e Vitara electric model provides customers with a battery pack selection between Delta, Zeta, and Alpha variants through its three available options. Each variant of this EV offers a specific battery pack package. This article provides complete information about which combinations are available.
Battery Options
The e Vitara showcases its main selling point through a selection of battery packs available for customers. Two versions of batteries are available in the SUV: a smaller 48.8 KWh capacity unit and a larger 61.1 KWh option. The product variants present various performance specifications that can satisfy diverse customer specifications. Delta trim provides the 48.8-kWh battery but Zeta and Alpha trims feature the 61.1-kWh battery.
Performance Specs
Performance output reaches 144 PS from the smaller battery pack until the larger pack reaches 174 PS. The large and smaller battery systems deliver equivalent torque power output of 192.5 Nm which guarantees a comfortable driving experience. A full charge of the bigger battery option should generate over 500 km range which places it at a competitive spot among its peers.
Design Features
The e Vitara design incorporates a distinctive two-box layout which separates it from other Maruti models in the lineup. Three main design points of this model include rectangular LEDs in the front lights, noticeable cladding and attractive wheels. Users typically find a total length of 4,275 mm in their e Vitara along with brief overhangs and an ample interior compartment.
Interior Amenities
The e Vitara cabin contains various up-to-date features that provide passengers with comfort alongside convenience. Users get access to a 10.25-inch touchscreen display which offers both wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity. Users gain essential driving information through the 10.1-inch digital display that appears in front of the driver.
Safety Features
At Maruti Suzuki safety matters the most to customers which the e Vitara fully honors by providing exceptional safety measures. The e Vitara features standard seven airbags for all variants together with safety technology that includes ESC plus ABS with EBD and a 360-degree camera system. This is the first time an Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) has appeared in any Maruti Suzuki vehicle to boost safety measures along all driving routes.
Pricing Expectations
Official pricing information about the e Vitara remains unavailable at present yet analysts predict it should start between the Rs 17 lakh (ex-showroom) mark. When it comes to pricing the model starts from about Rs 17 lakh; this positions it where it can compete with Tata Curvv EV, Hyundai Creta Electric, MG ZS EV along with Mahindra BE 6.
Market Positioning
Maruti Suzuki focuses on obtaining a substantial share of India’s expanding electric vehicle market through its electric vehicle segment launch. The e-Vitara addresses customers interested in environment-friendly SUVs that provide dependable electric performance with a range of features.
Fast Charging Infrastructure
Maruti Suzuki initiated its EV support plan through the “e for Me” program that aims to build quick-charging facilities throughout major Indian cities. The company is working to establish more than 1500 separate EV service facilities that will provide necessary support to EV customers.
The Maruti Suzuki e Vitara introduces an innovative period for Maruti as well as Indian consumers who want sustainable transportation choices. The e Vitara possesses promising market potential as an electric vehicle pick among Indian buyers because of its extended driving distance capability combined with contemporary equipment and budget-friendly pricing.
Public interest remains high about how well this forthcoming electric SUV will strike the market when it launches officially in March 2025.
