Maruti is gearing up to launch the e Vitara in the Indian market, using the iconic “Vitara” nameplate yet again, but this time in the form of an all-electric SUV. The new e Vitara slots into the mid-size electric SUV segment but stands out with its rugged styling, feature-loaded cabin, two battery pack options, and a three-variant lineup. While Maruti is yet to announce the starting price, buyers are excited to know everything about it.
Here’s everything you need to know about the Maruti e Vitara:
|

Battery Pack |
|
Delta |
49 kWh |
|
Zeta |
61 kWh |
|
Alpha |

The Maruti e Vitara will be offered in a total of three variants, i.e. Delta, Zeta And Alpha. The full price list of the car is expected to be released on soon and, and then you’ll be able to drive it home starting in 2026.

Delta (49 kWh) |
344 km (WLTP) |
|
Zeta (61 kWh) |
543 km (ARAI) |
|
Alpha (61 kWh) |
543 km (ARAI) |
The Maruti e Vitara will offer a maximum range of 543 km based on the ARAI tests for the bigger battery pack and about 344 km as tested per the WLTP cycle. For reference, the bigger battery pack could do a Delhi to Chandigarh and back trip in a single charge.
The exterior design of the Maruti e Vitara turns heads with its distinctive, modern, yet rugged look. The chunky bumpers and body claddings add to the muscular look of the car. The sharp LED projector headlights, sleek three-point matrix Y-shaped LED DRLs, and wraparound three-point matrix LED taillights with a similar Y-shaped design as the DRLs contribute to giving the car an unnoticeable road presence.
On the inside, the cabin is neatly laid out with a dual-tone colour scheme of black and tan hue; also new is a dual-spoke steering wheel. The dashboard is dominated by a dual-screen setup. At the rear, occupants get a spacious experience, thanks to the large windows, electric sunroof, and a sliding and reclining function that enhances comfort.
The e Vitara comes loaded with features like a dual-screen layout encompassing a 10.1-inch digital instrument cluster and a 10.25-inch touchscreen for infotainment with wireless connectivity, sunroof, a 10-way electrically adjustable driver seat, ventilated front seats, ambient lighting, a PM2.5 cabin air filter, an infinity sound system, ride-by-wire technology, and multiple drive modes.
In terms of safety, the e Vitara has scored a perfect 5-star in the Bharat NCAP crash test and has also scored a respectable 4-star safety rating at Euro-NCAP, and comes equipped with 7 airbags and a Level-2 ADAS suite with front and rear blind-spot alerts. It also gets a 360-degree camera with front and rear sensors, an electronic parking brake with auto hold, ABS with EBD, electronic stability control, and a tyre pressure monitoring system.
The Maruti e Vitara, in India, is offered with two battery pack options, both paired with a single electric motor, and power being sent to the front wheels. The car supports both AC and DC fast charging. Here is a detailed list of the battery, power specifications, range, and charging time:

In the international market, it is offered with a two-motor setup with an AWD system as option.
We expect the e Vitara to start around the Rs 16 lakh mark for the base Delta variant with 49 kWh battery pack and go up till around Rs 22 lakh for the top-end Alpha variant with the bigger 61 kWh battery pack.
The Maruti e Vitara faces fierce competition from established names like the Hyundai Creta Electric, Tata Curvv EV, Mahindra BE 6, VinFast VF6 and VF7, MG Windsor EV, and the MG ZS EV, giving customers a wide range of options to choose from in the highly competitive segment.
The e Vitara has already caught everyone's attention with its unique styling and a modern interior loaded with features. All eyes are on the pricing to see whether the e Vitara can be a big hit for Maruti in establishing its electric portfolio, and whether or not it can establish itself in the mid-size electric SUV segment in India.
