Maruti Suzuki e Vitara Launched in India at ₹10.99 Lakh
Maruti Suzuki has launched the e-Vitara at Rs. 10.99 lakh (ex-showroom), exclusive of battery. The customer will be paying an additional Rs. 3.99 per kilometre driven, as the battery is provided on a rental basis. The starting price for the e-Vitara is that of a 49kWh battery pack in the Delta trim, with bookings open for a sum of Rs. 21,000 and deliveries underway. Maruti is yet to reveal the full price list of its first EV.
The carmaker has joined the EV race much later than most of its rivals. Despite that, it has not yet revealed the full price list of the car, which was first showcased over a year ago, nor even BaaS prices for the higher trims or finance partners of the BaaS scheme.
Maruti is also providing the 8-year/1,60,00 km warranty on the battery pack and a 3-year warranty on the vehicle. The 5-year extended warranty on the vehicle can be availed at an additional cost.
The e-Vitara is also available with the assured buyback plan, with the 60 per cent buyback value on the 3-year/45,000 km plan, and 50 per cent buyback value on the 4-year/60,000 km plan. The carmaker is offering a complimentary 7.4kW AC charger with free installation. The owners can also avail the free charging for 1,000 units or one year via chargers at Maruti Suzuki dealerships accessible through the ‘e for me’ app.
Maruti claims that a top-up from 10 to 80 per cent uses a 7.4 kW charger, takes 6.5 hours for the 49kWh variant, and 9 hours for the 61 kWh battery pack version. The same can be achieved in 45 minutes when using the fast DC charger with support for speeds of up to 70 kW.
The e-Vitara rivals models such as the Hyundai Creta Electric, Vinfast VF6, MG ZS EV, Mahindra BE 6, Toyota Ebella, and Tata Curvv EV.
