Maruti Suzuki is planning to launch an EV along with three hybrid vehicles as it expands its hybrid vehicle range in the country.
Maruti Invicto
The premium MPV, the Invicto, is set to arrive in the Indian market on July 5.
It is based on the outgoing Toyota Innova Hycross with design elements borrowed from the Grand Vitara.
The front fascia will resemble the Grand Vitara, while the rest of the vehicle will be similar to the Innova Hycross.
The latter gets two engine options – a 2.0L NA petrol engine with mild-hybrid tech, and a 2.0L strong-hybrid petrol engine, and Maruti is expected to offer the same.
New-Generation Maruti Swift
The next-generation model will likely be unveiled early next year.
It will be built on the HEARTECT platform, which also underpins the Baleno and Fronx.
It will also undergo design changes with enhanced build quality, and a host of new features.
It will run on a new 1.2L petrol engine with strong hybrid technology, which should offer good fuel efficiency.
New-Generation Maruti Dzire
The sub-4 meter sedan is set to launch in the near future.
It will share the same HEARTECT platform as the Swift which promises improved safety and dynamics.
The new model will also feature refreshed styling, upgraded interiors, and better equipment.
It will be powered by a 1.2L strong-hybrid petrol engine the same as the next-gen Swift.
Maruti Suzuki eVX
With this, the company will make its much-anticipated entry into the electric vehicle segment.
It will come equipped with a 60kWh battery pack and built on a born-EV platform.
The automaker promises an impressive range of 550km on a single charge.
The eVX is expected to rival popular electric SUVs like Tata Nexon, Mahindra XUV400, and even MG ZS EV.
