Overview
Suzuki introduced the e Vitara on November 4, 2024 in Milan, Italy. The vehicle was previewed by the Suzuki eVX concept, which was first showcased at the Auto Expo in India in January 2023. The e Vitara will be introduced in India by March 2025, with its arrival in Europe and Japan expected by mid-2025.[4]
The e Vitara is claimed to be developed on the Heartect-e electric vehicle "skateboard" platform, developed to provide increased structural integrity and a lowered centre of gravity. Two battery options are available: a 49 kWh battery pack delivering 106 kW (142 hp; 144 PS) and a 61 kWh battery pack producing 128 kW (172 hp; 174 PS). These battery packs utilize lithium iron phosphate (LFP) blade cells produced by BYD, known for their stability and safety features. The top variant of the e Vitara will come equipped with the AllGrip-e all-wheel-drive system, offering 135 kW (181 hp; 184 PS) and 300 N⋅m (30.6 kg⋅m; 221 lb⋅ft) of torque, with adaptable drive modes tailored for various driving conditions. The eAxle technology, created in collaboration with Toyota, is integrated into the platform.
The e Vitara will be manufactured at Suzuki Motor Gujarat facility in Gujarat, India, with around 50 percent of its production output designated for export to European and other global markets.[2] A Toyota-branded model with modified exterior styling will be introduced in 2025. It was previewed by the Toyota Urban SUV Concept shown in December 2023 in Europe.[5]
