India Goes electric: Driving the Maruti e Vitara | autoX

Can the Maruti Suzuki e Vitara complete a long highway run without stopping to charge?
In this real-world test, Kingshuk drives Maruti’s first electric SUV from Gurugram to Chandigarh as part of the company’s ‘India Goes Electric’ initiative.

Starting with under 80% battery, navigating NCR traffic, cruising on the highway, and deliberately skipping available chargers along the way, this drive puts the e Vitara’s real-world range, efficiency, and usability to the test. With range anxiety setting in and numbers getting tight, does the e Vitara make it to Chandigarh without plugging in?

This is not a lab test — it’s a genuine Indian highway drive, with real traffic, real speeds, and real decisions.
