The standout feature on the new Maruti eVitara is the second row seat. It allows an easy switch between passenger legroom and boot space. Other outstanding features available in the cabin include soft-touch materials, dual-tone upholstery, ambient lighting, and a flat EV floor for added spaciousness. Other added features that sum up the interiors are ventilated front seats, a 10-way power-adjustable driver's seat, and a fixed glass roof .

The tech area on the eVitara begins with a 10.25-inch touchscreen, wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, and Suzuki Connect for remote monitoring. These features would make  the interface intuitive. Check out the other options like Level 2 ADAS includes adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, and autonomous emergency braking. A few highlights include a 360-degree camera, heads-up display, and wireless charging. 

4. Premium Design and Build

Exterior styling is equivalent to Nexa with the clean lines, flush door handles, and a closed grille. Inside, you will find the asymmetric dashboard with twin screens and physical HVAC controls. These would feel quite quality. We also found the features like a 10-speaker Infinity audio system and multi-color ambient lighting quite innovative. 

5. Strong Safety Standards

The eVitara offers several safety features as part of the standard package. 7 air bags is one of the most unique options that have an excellent high performance in Bharat NCAP and Euro NCAP tests. ADAS suite adds layers like blind-spot detection and traffic sign recognition. The lightweight Heartect-e structure with high-voltage protection ensures robust crash performance.

6. Competitive Range and Efficiency

The vehicle is powered by efficient eAxles. We found the eVitara targets over 500km real-world range, addressing key EV concerns in India. The vast network of Maruti offers you fast chargers at dealerships. Priced around Rs 20-30 lakh through NEXA outlets, it rivals Tata Curvv EV and Hyundai Creta Electric competitively.

7. Efficiency and Ownership Value

You can get a real world efficiency of around 15-18kWh/100km. the eco drive mode and precise energy monitoring make the Maruti eVitara an efficient option. You would typically get the running costs as low as  ~Rs 1-2 per km versus petrol SUVs. You will also get a one year (or 1.6 lakh km) warranty which is one of the best in the industry. 

Couple it with the unmatched service footprint of Maruti and you will get the best possible experience ever in terms of ownership value. 

Stylish Yet Approachable Design

The style and design are another thing that we really love about Maruti eVitara. In many ways, eVitara resembles the Nexa design language. The slim LED headlamps, a seamless closed grille, aerodynamic 17-18 inch alloys, and flush handles are a few salient features we love about the new electric car from Maruti. The rear LED tail-lamps and integrated spoiler give it a premium road presence rivaling pricier imports. That should be a good signal to  Maruti's premium EV ambitions.

Why It Matters for Maruti and India?

The Maruti eVitara is the first mass market electric SUV from the brand. It is looking to leverage the brand trust and service experience to penetrate into the electric vehicle market beyond metros. The eVitara comes with familiar driving dynamics. That should ideally make it much approachable for the first time drivers. 

Maruti is looking enhance the production to over one lakh units annually. It also has plans to introduce more models and variants based on the response received for eVitara. This positions Maruti to capture 20% EV market share by 2030. We definitely look ahead to a great impetus to the national green mobility goals amid tightening emission norms.
