That said, it was unveiled at EICMA 2024 in Milan, Italy, and India saw it for the first time at Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, but it's been quite some time since we heard anything about its launch. Let's explore more details about this e-SUV. In the meantime, do join the 91Wheels WhatsApp Channel to never miss out on automotive updates.

Maruti Suzuki e-Vitara

The Maruti Suzuki eVitara, one of the most anticipated launches of 2025, made its debut in India at Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025 in January. Since then, the whole automotive industry has been waiting for it to hit the roads, but Maruti Suzuki has maintained a pin-drop silence. Surprisingly, its design patent has been filed, and that photo made it to the Internet, and finally now we have something related to this upcoming SUV.

The e-Vitara design patent doesn't showcase any different design than what we saw at Auto Expo 2025. It's exactly the same and looks robustly modern. Moreover, there is a large single-pane sunroof too, and everything is the same as before. Now, this indicates that the launch might be soon. Moreover, this car will be manufactured in the Gujarat Plant and will also be exported from here, so India is the main hub of the all-new e-Vitara.

Maruti e Vitara Battery Pack

Speaking of its battery pack, the e-Vitara will come with two options: 49 kWh and 61 kWh. The first one puts out 144 PS and 189 Nm of torque, sending all power to the front wheels. While the 61 kWh will have a claimed range of 500 km, the power will be 174 PS and 189 Nm of torque. On top of that, there is another iteration of this 61 kWh pack that sends power to all four wheels - but India will not be the market for this, the officials at Maruti informed us during Auto Expo 2025. So, both the single-motor options make this car only FWD.
