Maruti Suzuki Wagon R EV: Global automaker Suzuki, located in Japan, has disclosed its ambitions for electrification in important markets like India, Europe, and Japan. The automaker is developing six electric cars just for the Indian market. It has published outlines of the vehicles, and the Wagon R EV is one of them.

Maruti has imported a number of Suzuki Wagon R EV models over the years to serve as test beds for its electric vehicle technologies. Even though the electric hatchback has repeatedly been seen testing on Indian roads, the automaker has never officially verified it until now.

What to expect from the Maruti Suzuki Wagon R EV

The Wagon R EV's specifications and features are unknown to us at this time. We do, however, know that it will be a mass-market model to compete with the Tata Tiago EV, Citroen eC3, and incoming MG Air EV.

The Wagon R EV should have a range of about 250 km and should be as roomy as the ICE Wagon R hatchback has always been. However, battery technology is developing swiftly, so by the time the production-spec Wagon R EV emerges, the precise numbers may vary from our estimation.

Expect the Wagon R EV to be priced competitively in its segment, providing a useful, cost-effective substitute for Maruti's first EV.

eVX Concept SUV

In India, the first Maruti auto with an all-electric powertrain will debut in 2025. The Grand Vitara-sized crossover SUV will compete in the same sector as the MG ZS EV, Hyundai Kona Electric, and the future Tata Curvv and Sierra EVs, as previewed by the eVX concept SUV at Auto Expo 2023. Being a Maruti, it ought to provide excellent value, but it will be expensive.

The upcoming Wagon R EV has a great chance of becoming the nation's most popular EV. Given that it won't be here any time soon, Maruti has the opportunity to develop a practical and affordable production-spec EV. The Wagon R EV electric hatchback will be offered in areas outside of India, including Japan and Europe.
