Maruti Suzuki is now gearing up for the launch of e Vitara in India. The electric car has been spotted testing around the country, and a few units have also started reaching the dealerships. However, it is now that the brand has patented the design of the e Vitara. It is to be noted that the Maruti Suzuki e Vitara will be manufactured in India and will be up for sale in the global market after its launch in September 2025.

The Maruti Suzuki has added several elements that distinguish it from the Grand Vitara. The e Vitara gets a rugged bumper and sculpted bonnet with prominent grooves as a highlight.

Tesla Finally Lands in India: Is It Too Late?

Back in 2016, Tesla began taking preorders from Indian customers with no timeline for delivery. Now, nine years later, it's officially arrived — but much has changed. The Indian EV space is more competitive, homegrown players like Tata and global brands like BYD have made inroads and import duties remain steep. And in the premium segment that Tesla is targeting, it's not the first mover. German brands like Mercedes, BMW and Audi have been here for years. What took Tesla so long? Why did early adopters like Vishal Gondal cancel their bookings? And is India ready — in terms of infrastructure, pricing and policy — for what Tesla offers? Guest: Vishal Gondal, tech entrepreneur and early Tesla hopeful Host: Anupama Chandrasekaran Produced and edited by Sharmada Venkatasubramanian Listen to more In Focus podcasts:

Maruti Suzuki Ertiga Rivaling Toyota Rumion Gets Price Hike; Check Details

The hike has been implemented on all variants of MPV, and it now comes at a starting price of Rs 10.66 lakh (ex-showroom). This translates to a uniform hike of Rs 12,500 on the MPV. Meanwhile, the most expensive variant now comes at Rs 13.95 lakh (ex-showroom). The Toyota Rumion is a rebranded version of the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga and is part of a range of models that the two manufacturers share, such as the Baleno-Glanza, Fronx-Taisor, and Hyryder-Vitara, among others. While Maruti Suzuki offers numerous variants of the Ertiga, Toyota provides three variants of the Rumion - S, G, and V.

It boasts an updated front grille with a mesh design, which replaces the original projector headlights flanking it. Both the front and rear bumpers have been reworked, and the vehicle also includes newly designed alloy wheels. Additionally, the Rumion is offered in India as a seven-seater model. Inside, the Toyota Rumion showcases a dual-tone black and beige dashboard adorned with faux wood accents. It comes equipped with a range of comfort-oriented features such as cruise control, automatic climate control, and a seven-inch touchscreen infotainment system compatible with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The Toyota Rumion is fueled by a 1.5-litre petrol engine that delivers 102 hp and 138 Nm of torque. This engine is paired with either a five-speed manual or an automatic torque converter transmission that drives the front wheels. Additionally, there is a CNG variant that produces 87 hp and 121 Nm of torque, available with a manual transmission. This family-friendly MPV offers a fuel efficiency of 20.5km/l, which is comparable to its Maruti Suzuki equivalent. On the other hand, the CNG version, equipped with a factory-installed kit, achieves an impressive mileage of 26.11km/kg.
