Maruti Suzuki India Ltd. has officially commenced the export of Suzuki’s first battery electric vehicle (BEV), the e-Vitara, marking a significant milestone in the company’s global EV journey.
On Monday, over 2,900 units were shipped from Pipavav Port in Gujarat to 12 European nations, including the United Kingdom, Germany, Norway, France, Denmark, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Sweden, Hungary, Iceland, Austria, and Belgium.
The production of the e-Vitara was formally inaugurated on August 26 by Prime Minister Narendra Modi at Suzuki’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Gujarat, further reinforcing the government’s vision for electric mobility and domestic manufacturing.
Hisashi Takeuchi, Managing Director & CEO, MSIL said, “The PM’s recognition of Maruti Suzuki as a brand ambassador of ‘Make in India’ is the highest possible honour we could think of. The start of export of e Vitara to Europe is indeed a proud and defining moment for us.”
Maruti Suzuki India Limited reported total sales of 180,683 units in August 2025, reflecting the company's continued momentum across domestic and international markets. The company sold 134,050 units in the domestic passenger vehicle market, maintaining a strong presence in the Indian automotive sector.
The Made-in-India e-Vitara is set to be exported to over 100 countries worldwide, while also being launched for the Indian domestic market in the near future.
