Another big update is that the electric Vitara could be introduced as the Maruti Suzuki e Escudo. It could be launched on September 3, 2025.

The e Vitara has been spotted testing multiple times on the Indian roads. A new set of spy images reveal that the electric SUV could be launched with a new nameplate. The spotted model was seen wearing ‘e Escudo’ badge on the tailgate. This suggests that the new electric SUV could be launched as the Maruti Suzuki e Escudo. For people not in the know, the Vitara SUV on sale in the Japanese market is called the Suzuki Escudo.

It is also expected that Suzuki could be testing the export version of the electric SUV. The electric SUV is likely to carry the e Escudo nameplate for select export markets, and the e Vitara name for India as well as select international markets.
