2025 Maruti Suzuki e Vitara Platform And Powertrain

Maruti Suzuki’s upcoming e Vitara electric SUV is built on a dedicated EV platform called Heartect-e. The Heartect-e platform is designed to maximise interior space while ensuring optimal battery packaging and structural rigidity. By utilising a skateboard architecture, Maruti Suzuki have been able to minimise overhangs, resulting in a spacious cabin and a more efficient use of interior space. Furthermore, the platform incorporates advanced safety features and high-voltage protection systems to ensure the safety and longevity of the battery pack.

Powering the e Vitara will be a choice of 2 battery pack sizes. A 49kWh battery will be offered for front-wheel-drive models, while a larger 61kWh battery will be available for both front-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive configurations. This flexibility allows customers to choose the powertrain that best suits their needs and driving style.

Check out the powertrain specs of the e Vitara in the table below:

2025 Maruti Suzuki e Vitara Exterior Design And Dimensions

In terms of design, we were surprised to see the carmaker retain most of the design highlights of the eVX concept SUV. Maruti Suzuki have a long history of showcasing concepts with futuristic designs but then end up toning it down for the final production-spec model. Think of concepts like the S Concept and the A Star concept which ended up being the S-Presso and the A-Star. 

Up front, the e Vitara features sleek LED headlights and Y-shaped LED DRLs. Personally, I’m happy that Maruti Suzuki aren’t following the current trend of offering connected LED headlamps. Instead, they have gone for a gloss black trim in between. The bumper is sculpted heavily and features a black lower portion along with an air dam, which is flanked by LED fog lamps.

Around the side, the e Vitara features blacked-out A- and B-pillars, while the C-pillar houses the rear door handles, just like the previous-gen Swift. The rear haunches are quite pronounced and the lower black cladding gives the e Vitara a rugged look. The 2WD variants of the e Vitara will feature 18-inch alloy wheels while the AWD variant pictured here gets 19-inch alloy wheels with aero inserts.

At the rear, the e Vitara gets connected LED tail lights, a roof spoiler, a shark fin antenna, and a rear fog lamp as well. Check out the dimensions of the upcoming Maruti Suzuki e Vitara in the table below:

With the dimensions mentioned above, it is clear that Maruti Suzuki are aiming at C-segment electric SUVs with the upcoming e Vitara. When launched, the e Vitara will not only rival the Tata Curvv EV and the MG ZS EV but also take on the upcoming Mahindra BE 6e and the Hyundai Creta EV.

 2025 Maruti Suzuki e Vitara Interior And Features

On the inside, the 2025 e Vitara gets a dual-tone black-and-tan interior with a 2-spoke steering wheel. While the flat-bottom steering wheel itself isn’t as fancy as the ones offered in Tata’s EVs, it is functional with physical buttons for controlling various aspects of the car. The e Vitara also gets dual integrated screens for infotainment and driver’s display. The AC vents feature brushed aluminium trim around it and the AC settings are accessed by physical buttons on the dashboard.

Below the AC controls lies a wireless phone charger with USB ports and 2 cupholders. The centre console gets a gloss black finish and houses the  rotary drive elector, electronic parking brake, and various other controls, including hill descent control, surround view camera, and more.

Suzuki are yet to reveal the full feature list of the e Vitara. However, based on the images, we can confirm it will offer ADAS. Expected features include 6 airbags, automatic climate control and ventilated front seats, among others.
