Launch Date and Market Positioning
Maruti is entering the electric SUV segment with e-Vitara, targeting those looking for a feature-rich and efficient EV. Launch has been planned for early September. According to the company, this car will rival premium electric SUVs such as Tata Curvv EV, Hyundai Creta EV, and MG ZS EV in India.
Battery Options and Driving Range
