2025 Maruti e Vitara Expected Price Range — With Logic | V3Cars

In this article, we’ll estimate the ex-showroom price range of the upcoming e Vitara — Maruti’s first electric SUV to compete in the C-segment electric SUVs like the Hyundai Creta Electric, Tata Curvv EV, MG ZS EV, MG Windsor EV, Mahindra BE6 and the BYD Atto3. We’ll explain the logic behind the calculations along with the reasons to support our conclusions in the EVitara expected price table. As and when we get more information affecting our estimations about the¸ Vitara electric price, we’ll update this article to accommodate new findings.

2025 Maruti E Vitara Price Expectation: With Logic

Note: These estimates are without the knowledge of the e Vitara variant lineup and variant-wise features. Hence, we expect to be a little off with respect to variant wise pricing. However, we expect the car to operate more or less in the price range we project in this article.

Maruti Vitara Electric Variants

The e Vitara from Maruti will come with 2 battery options:

  • 49kWh (420km*)
  • 61kWh (500km+)

*Estimated

The Hyundai Creta EV gets 5 main variants, which may be a bit too many while the Mahindra BE 6 gets only 3 variants. We expect Maruti to remain in the middle with 4 trim options. The lower 3 variants may get the smaller battery pack option while the larger battery pack may remain available only in the top 2 variants. The ZS EV also gets 4 main variants while the Curvv EV gets 5. Moreover, Maruti Suzuki also normally keep the variant count to 4 for their Nexa cars.

We have recently seen Hyundai limit the larger battery pack to only 2 out of 5 variants of the Creta Electric while Mahindra are also limiting the larger battery pack option to only the top trim of the BE 6 and XEV 9e.

So, we also expect Maruti to play by the industry practices and limit the access to larger battery pack to the higher trims. This will help them rake in larger revenue from buyers interested in a car with longer range.

Regarding the variant names, we expect them to follow the similar naming convention as the standard petrol Grand Vitara which also gets an affordable, but fairly loaded, Sigma variant. Since Hyundai Creta Electric and MG ZS EV also get a basic Executive variant, we can expect Maruti to follow similar industry practices.

Maruti E Vitara 2025 — Starting Price Expectation

To get an idea about the starting price of the Maruti e Vitara, we will first have to look at the price bands of its closest rivals.

Hyundai Creta EV (Ex-Sh Price Range Rs. 18.0 - 23.50 lakh)

The Creta Electric is available in the Rs. 18.0 - 23.50 lakh price range. This is the prime challenger to the E Vitara as Hyundai’s sales and service centre reach is comparable to Maruti’s, if not better. Moreover, the Creta is a stronger brand than the Vitara among the C-segment SUVs.

The Creta also offers a smaller, air-cooled battery pack of just 42kWh while the Vitara will bring a 49kWh battery pack. The e Vitara may also offer a few extra standard features such as sliding and reclining rear seats and a driver knee airbag.

MG ZS EV (Approx Ex-Sh Price Range Rs. 19.0 - 26.50 lakh)

The MG ZS EV is a tough challenger to the e Vitara and it has been around for a good while now. It’s starting to age — in terms of battery chemistry. So much so, that MG aren’t willing to offer lifetime battery warranty with ZS while they do with the Windsor and probably plan to offer it with the Comet EV too. We expect the next-gen ZS EV to bring these improvements along with an EV-spec platform. Whether the new generation ZS will remain on sale along with the current ZS or replace it, that is not clear right now. MG showcased the new-gen ZS as the S5 at the mobility expo 2025.

The ZS EV currently starts around Rs. 19.0 lakh but it’s also available with some discounts, which suggests that the price at which it might sell in decent numbers is around Rs. 18.0 lakh or lower. Here too, you don’t get a barebones base variant although the ZS EV is now lacking severely in the infotainment department.

On the upper limit, the ZS EV’s prices go as high as ~Rs. 26.50 lakh.

MG Windsor EV (Approx Ex-Sh Price Range Rs. 14.0 - 16.0 lakh)

The Windsor EV’s launch price was nice at Rs. 13.50 lakh. When you factor in 1-year worth of free public charging and lifetime battery warranty, it comes across a good deal. It is about as long as the Creta Electric but wider than all C-segment SUVs. The only thing you might find weird is its bubbly looks.

After the Jan 2025 price hike of Rs. 50,000, it’s not looking as attractive any more. Especially since MG also discontinued the free public charging offer, the value proposition is severely ruined.

Regardless, it comes across as a tough challenger for the e Vitara and MG’s efforts towards containing the demand for Windsor will take some pressure off the e Vitara. Thus, making it easier for Maruti to find a sweeter pricing spot.

Tata Curvv EV (Ex-Sh Price Range Rs. 17.50 - 22.0 lakh)

The Tata Curvv EV has the brand’s 5 years experience selling the Nexon EV. While the buyers’ experience with their Tata EV has been anything but consistent, that time and experience certain counts for something.

Tata also offer a larger battery pack than the eVitara in the base model but their larger battery pack is smaller. So, Maruti have the right to ask for more than what Tata are asking for the Curvv EV top model.

BYD Atto3 (Approx Ex-Sh Price Range Rs. 25.0 - 34.0 lakh)

The BYD Atto3 technically is a challenger for the Creta electric and eVitara. But, since BYD plan to establish themselves as a luxury carmaker in India, they will continue to sell it at a higher-than-segment prices. They are not chasing volumes with their cars and are currently prioritising brand positioning and perception building.

Mahindra BE6 (Approx Ex-Sh Price Range Rs. 18.90 - 26.90 lakh)

Another big problem for the eVitara is the Mahindra BE6. It not only offers a larger battery as standard, it also gets flashy styling and a host of tech features deserving of a conversation. Thankfully, its top model price will give the eVitara some breathing room.

On a positive side, the industry expectation that Mahindra may not be able to deliver reliability with such a revolutionary and tech-laden product is also valid. So, the Vitara EV can breathe relax knowing that they have a challenge in the BE 6 but it doesn’t have the same overlapping set of buyers who want a smooth and predictable ownership experience.

2025 Maruti e Vitara EV — Expected Price Summary

Let’s go through the logic for each eVitara 2025 variants starting with understanding of the starting price.

Maruti eVitara 2025 49kWh Variants Expected Price

Here’s our logic behind the expected price of each of the 3 E Vitara variants with the smaller 49kWh battery pack:

  • Sigma — Rs. 18.0 lakh: On the lower end, we expect the eVitara 49kWh base model to cost Rs. 18.0 lakh, which is the same as the starting price of the Creta EV. While the Creta EV offers a smaller battery pack and doesn’t get battery heating, its NMC battery chemistry also makes it more expensive. Maruti use LFP battery in the E Vitara. Moreover, Maruti Suzuki also derive material cost efficiencies from using an EV-specific platform. There is a higher initial R&D cost but it pays off as demand and volumes scale up. This starting price positions it a bit above the Curvv EV while making the Creta Electric appear overpriced because of lower range and smaller battery pack.
  • Delta — Rs. 19.50 lakh: At this price, the Delta variant maintains a healthy price gap over the base model but still comes across as cheaper than the ZS EV, which starts at Rs. 19.0 lakh for an under-equipped base model. The Rs. 50,000 gap to the Rs. 20 lakh price barrier also allows Maruti some leeway to hike the prices should the demand exceed the supply. And if the demand is weak, they can just manage it with some discounts.
  • Zeta — Rs. 21.0 lakh: The Zeta variant will help Maruti breach the Rs. 20.0 lakh price point while making another Rs. 1.50 lakh price gap over the lower Delta trim. But the point of this pricing is to make the Zeta 61kWh more attractive option to upgrade.

Maruti eVitara 2025 61kWh Variants Expected Price

  • Zeta — Rs. 22.50 lakh: At this price, the e Vitara Zeta 61kWh is only Rs. 1.0 lakh pricier than the Creta Electric Smart (O) 51.4kWh. Since it has a 61kWh battery pack, the Rs. 1.0 lakh price premium is completely justifiable.
  • Alpha — Rs. 24.0 lakh: Finally, the Rs. 24.0 lakh price of the eVitara top model makes it Rs. 50,000 more expensive than the Creta EV top model. That gap will come across as completely justifiable since the e Vitara will offer better cabin space (skateboard EV platform), larger battery and bigger alloy wheels. Hence, it will manage to come across as a better deal while also allowing Maruti to position the Vitara EV above the Creta Electric brand.
