Maruti Suzuki is gearing up to introduce its first all-electric SUV, the e Vitara, in India during the first week of December 2025. The model was first previewed at the 2025 Bharat Mobility Expo and marks a significant step in the company’s EV journey. Built on the new HEARTECT-e architecture, the e Vitara is a ground-up electric SUV that will sit at the top of Maruti Suzuki’s lineup, likely becoming its most premium and expensive offering yet. Once launched, it will take on rivals like the Hyundai Creta EV, Tata Curvv EV and Mahindra XUV400.
Expected Price
The e Vitara recently made its debut in the UK with prices starting at £29,999 and going up to £37,799 (approximately Rs 35.05 lakh to Rs 44.16 lakh). The India-spec version is expected to be priced more
competitively, potentially starting around the Rs 30 lakh mark (ex-showroom).
