With years of automobile knowledge, we have integrated sophisticated electric innovation with a customer-first method to deliver something genuinely transformative. At Maruti Suzuki, we have constantly believed that to promote EV adoption, we need to develop a holistic ecosystem that streamlines clients' battery electric automobile ownership journey.".
He further included, "A crucial barrier to the adoption of EVs is the lack of available charging. To tackle this issue, we are devoted to introduce a reliable and thorough EV ecosystem along with the e VITARA. This will include home charging options in addition to an across the country network of fast battery chargers available at Maruti Suzuki car dealerships and service touchpoints. Our goal is to make EVs available, convenient, and attracting a broader set of clients, and this is exactly what we have set out to attain with the e VITARA".
Global and Domestic Ambitions.
While the eVitara is customized for the Indian market, it will also be introduced internationally in regions like the European Union and Japan. In India, the SUV will be retailed through Nexa car dealerships, offering special color alternatives and cosmetic variations to differentiate it from its European equivalent.
