Curious about Maruti’s next big move in electric mobility? Meet the Suzuki EVX. It’s not just another electric SUV-it’s Maruti Suzuki’s big leap into the future. With a long range, a clean look and modern features, the EVX is ready to give Nexon EV and MG ZS EV a run for their money.
Launch Details
The model version of Suzuki EVX will be showcased at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo from January 17 to 22, 2025. Marked introduction don’t expect until March or September 2025. The EVX will be produced in India at Suzuki Gujarat plant and a large part of it will be exported.
Target Audience
Maruti’s EVX is designed to appeal to more than just hardcore EV fans. It’s for:
- Maruti loyalists upgrading from petrol cars
- Families needing a practical electric SUV
- Urban drivers who want efficiency and range
- Buyers looking for long term value and brand trust
- Environment conscious users looking for lower emissions
In short, it’s for everyday Indian buyers who want to go electric without feeling like guinea pigs.
Impact on the Market
Maruti Suzuki joining the EV space this late might seem like a disadvantage. But they’ve used the wait wisely. With a claimed range of up to 550 km, competitive pricing and a strong dealership network, the EVX could actually speed up India’s EV adoption.
It’ll compete directly with models like the Tata Curvv EV, MG ZS EV, and Hyundai Creta EV, but Suzuki’s wide brand reach, competitive pricing, and trusted service support might give it an edge.
Performance
What’s interesting about the EVX is its foundation. Built on a dedicated EV platform (co-developed with Toyota), it offers design freedom and better balance.
There will be two powertrain options:
- A single-motor 2WD for daily commuting
- A dual-motor AWD for those who want extra grip and performanceInstant electric torque means acceleration should be punchy, especially in city conditions. Low mounted battery also means more stability around corners and on highways.
Pricing
Not entry level but priced smartly between ₹20 to ₹25 lakh (ex-showroom). For 500+ km range and modern features, that’s very competitive.
Many others are priced similarly but offer shorter range or fewer features, the EVX might just be the sweet spot for cost conscious EV buyers.
Riding Experience
Though test drives haven’t started yet, here’s what we can expect based on Suzuki’s comfort-first approach:
- Silent cabin thanks to the electric motor
- Handles potholes and speed bumps with ease, making everyday rides more relaxed
- Its battery placement closer to the floor enhances stability and keeps body roll in check
- Spacious cabin especially at the rear thanks to a flat floor
- Tech loaded interior with big screen, digital dash and wireless connectivity
Maruti is also hinting at features like ventilated seats, reclining rear seats and ADAS all for comfort and safety.
