Are you ready for the electric revolution? Maruti Suzuki, the powerhouse of the Indian automobile industry, is gearing up to electrify the roads with its latest lineup of electric vehicles (EVs). Under its ambitious ‘Maruti 3.0’ strategy, the company plans to roll out six new electric models by 2030, marking its grand entry into the electric vehicle market. Let’s dive into the details of these upcoming Maruti marvels.
Maruti Suzuki eVX
Leading the charge is the eagerly awaited Maruti Suzuki eVX, a mid-sized SUV that promises to redefine electric mobility in India. Revealed as a concept at the prestigious 2023 Auto Expo, this futuristic SUV is set to hit the market just in time for the festive season in October 2024.
The eVX flaunts a sleek and modern design, featuring a coupe-like silhouette that exudes sophistication on the streets. Although the interior details are still under wraps, enthusiasts can expect a plethora of high-tech features including a spacious touchscreen, digital instrument cluster, and dual-zone AC for maximum comfort.
Under the hood, the eVX packs a punch with its 60 kWh blade battery pack sourced from BYD, offering an impressive driving range of up to 550 km on a single charge. With advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) on the cards, the eVX is poised to take on its rivals, including the upcoming Hyundai Creta EV and Tata Curvv EV.
Electric Hatchback
Next in line is the Maruti Suzuki eWX, a compact yet versatile electric hatchback that promises to revolutionize urban commuting. Revealed at the 2023 Japan Mobility Show, this mini wagon concept is built on Maruti’s proprietary K-EV platform, tailored for cost-effective electric vehicles.
Scheduled for launch in the first half of 2026, the eWX concept boasts a compact footprint and a tall-boy design reminiscent of the iconic WagonR. While powertrain details are still being fine-tuned, industry insiders speculate a 25 kWh battery powering the eWX, offering a respectable range of 230 km. Its potential rivals include the Tata Tiago EV and the MG Comet EV.
Maruti Suzuki Fronx EV
Another exciting addition to Maruti’s electric fleet is the Fronx EV, slated for release in late 2026 or early 2027. Building upon the success of the Fronx lineup, this electric variant is expected to offer a robust range of 400 km, courtesy of its up to 40 kWh battery pack.
While specific details remain scarce, enthusiasts can anticipate a refreshed design with LED accents and a feature-rich cabin boasting amenities like a panoramic sunroof, 360-degree camera, and a futuristic digital instrument cluster.
Electric MPV Concept
Last but not least, Maruti Suzuki is set to unveil an electric MPV, codenamed YMC, in 2026. Developed in collaboration with Toyota, this spacious MPV will share its platform with the eVX SUV, promising a seamless blend of performance and practicality.
Drawing inspiration from the popular Ertiga, the electric MPV will cater to large families with its roomy interior and EV-specific design elements. While details are scarce, Maruti aims to offer a competitive price point without compromising on features or performance.
Future of Maruti EVs
Excitingly, Maruti Suzuki has teased two additional electric models—a sub-compact and compact SUV—hinting at a diverse lineup catering to various segments of the market. With plans to offer electric alternatives to popular models like the Brezza, Maruti is poised to lead India’s electric revolution.
