Maruti Suzuki eVX Electric SUV Spied Testing Once Again in India, Shows New Alloy Wheels and More

Maruti Suzuki is testing its first electric vehicle, the eVX, on Indian roads as it prepares to launch in the country's expanding electric vehicle market. In the most recent sighting, the eVX was spotted near Gurugram carrying roughly six passengers and other fresh details on the forthcoming EV. The company previously showcased the compact eVX at several auto shows in India and overseas. It is anticipated that the eVX will arrive on our market next year.

The most recent spy photo of the Maruti Suzuki eVX indicates that the electric vehicle will probably receive different alloy wheels than the ones previously unveiled by the manufacturer. In contrast to the 10-spoke alloy wheels seen with previous test units, the latest test mule had five spokes on its alloy wheels. It is anticipated that the wheels will measure 16 inches or bigger. The spy photos also show that the eVX's rear door handles will likely be located on the C-pillar, just like the previous-gen Swift.
