Maruti Suzuki is set to officially announce the launch of its first all-electric passenger vehicle, the e-Vitara, in India on December 2, 2025, marking the brand’s entry into the EV segment. The electric SUV is the first of four Maruti BEVs planned for launch by 2030.
Manufactured exclusively at Maruti Suzuki’s Hansalpur plant in Gujarat, the car maker reportedly plans to export e-Vitara as well. Exports to Europe began in August 2025, with shipments to the UK, Germany, France, Norway, Denmark, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Sweden, Hungary, Iceland, Austria, and Belgium. The model is expected to reach over 100 international markets, including Japan.
Maruti has already started production, with the first 6,000 units exported to Europe and the UK. Built on Suzuki’s new Heartect-e EV architecture, the SUV will be retailed via Nexa outlets.
The e-Vitara follows Nexa’s Crafted Futurism theme, featuring Polyhedral Muscular stance, futuristic front fascia, 18-inch alloy wheels, Matrix LED DRLs & LED projector headlamps, and premium detailing.
The cabin sports a dual-screen setup, consisting of a 10.1-inch infotainment screen and a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster. Other interior features include: ambient lighting, ventilated front seats, 10-way powered driver seat, twin-deck centre console, sunroof with fixed glass, and wireless charger.
