The company is preparing to launch the e Vitara in the Indian market today. This marks Maruti Suzuki’s first electric SUV built on a new EV architecture jointly developed with Toyota. Known internally as the 40PL platform, the skateboard-style structure underpins the SUV’s 4,275mm length, 1,800mm width and 1,640mm height. The model includes 18-inch wheels, tri-slash LED lighting elements, a charging port on the front fender and ten exterior colour options, four of which are dual-tone. Suzuki has also incorporated the HEARTECT-e structure as part of its EV system updates.

The e Vitara will be offered with 49kWh and 61kWh battery packs and three power outputs: 144bhp, 171bhp and 181bhp. The 144bhp and 171bhp versions produce 189Nm of torque and operate with a two-wheel-drive layout. The 181bhp variant uses a dual-motor setup, where the additional rear motor generates around 64bhp to create an electric four-wheel-drive system.
