Maruti e-Vitara Crash Test: Maruti Suzuki is set to introduce its inaugural all-electric SUV, the e-Vitara, to the Indian market shortly. This vehicle was unveiled at the Bharat Mobility Expo 2025 earlier this year and has recently undergone crash testing prior to its official launch.

Successfully completed various crash tests

As reported by the media, the Maruti e-Vitara has successfully completed various crash tests. However, it is important to note that these tests were not conducted by Bharat NCAP or Global NCAP; rather, they are believed to be internal assessments carried out by Maruti Suzuki.

e-Vitara is equipped with seven airbags

The Maruti e-Vitara is poised to be available not only in India but also in numerous international markets, including Europe. Consequently, it is anticipated that the vehicle will achieve commendable ratings in crash tests. To ensure the safety of both the driver and passengers, the e-Vitara is equipped with seven airbags. Additionally, it features a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) to monitor tyre pressure, and an ABS with EBD system to enhance braking performance. An Electronic Parking Brake (EPB) has also been incorporated for improved parking ease and control.

Features

To enhance pedestrian safety, the vehicle includes an Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS). Furthermore, it is fitted with a 360-degree camera and front and rear parking sensors. Notably, this model will be the first from Maruti to incorporate advanced driving safety features such as Level 2 Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS). While the e-Vitara marks Maruti Suzuki’s entry into the electric SUV segment, the company plans to launch five additional electric vehicles over the next five years. It will compete with models such as the Tata Nexon EV, Mahindra XUV400, and MG ZS EV, with a launch expected in the coming months.

Maruti vehicles are already recognized for their fuel efficiency and dependability, and the company is now placing a greater emphasis on safety and technology within the electric vehicle sector. Should the Maruti e-Vitara perform well in crash tests, it could emerge as a formidable player in the Indian electric car market.
