Maruti Suzuki is now entering the electric segment in the Indian automobile industry. The company has confirmed that its first electric car, the Maruti e-Vitara, will be launched in December 2025. It was first showcased at the India Mobility Global Expo. Production of this SUV has now begun at the Hansalpur plant in Gujarat. Significantly, the e-Vitara is built on a purpose-built electric platform, meaning it is based on a completely new EV architecture, not an electric version of a petrol model.
