The country’s leading automaker, Maruti Suzuki, is getting ready for its big festive launch for the year 2025. It is now confirmed that the brand is going to launch yet another SUV in the market, which will also be the first electric vehicle in its range. The E Vitara, which was revealed first at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo earlier this year, will go on sale in India on September 3, just at the onset of the festive season. 

The SUV gets angular headlamp clusters with Y-shaped DRLs, while also featuring extensive use of cladding around the wheel arches, front and rear bumpers, and on the lower side of the doors. Connected tail lamps have also been provided, which resemble the ones seen on the EVX concept, on which the SUV is based. 

The list of features offered in the E Vitara will include ambient lighting, Harman sound system, ventilated seats, and a 10-way power-adjustable driver seat. Safety features include seven airbags as standard and Level 2 advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). The ADAS suite includes features such as a 360-degree camera, lane keep assist, and adaptive cruise control.

The E Vitara will be offered with two lithium-ferro-phosphate (LFP) battery options – 49 kWh and 61 kWh. Claimed WLTP range on the former is 346 km while the bigger pack promises up to 428 km in one charge. In terms of performance, the single-motor, 49 kWh E Vitara has a peak power output of 142 bhp, while the 61 kWh E Vitara develops a peak 172 bhp, with the peak torque output being the same for both models, at 192.5 Nm.  

Other Upcoming Maruti Suzuki Models are the Wagon R Electric and eVX
