The electric SUV segment has been quite hot in our market in recent times

In this post, we are comparing the Maruti Suzuki eVitara and Tata Curvv EV on the basis of features, specs, design, etc. The Indian automobile industry is in a transition phase from ICEs to EVs. Granted, the market share of EVs is almost negligible. Still, the growth rate is quite high. Going forward, we are witnessing more and more carmakers introduce new electric car models in our market. For instance, the eVitara is the first EV from Maruti Suzuki. That is a huge step for the Indo-Japanese car marque. In fact, we will also have its Toyota counterpart. On the other hand, Tata Motors is the largest EV maker in the country. Its Curvv EV is a coupe electric SUV which bears a distinct appearance. For now, let us compare the two thoroughly.

Maruti Suzuki eVitara vs Tata Curvv EV – Specs

Let us commence with the Maruti Suzuki eVitara. It uses the new HEARTECT-e platform which comprises of the eAxle (3-in-1 unit including inverter, motor and transmission). The buyers will get the option of choosing between a single-motor 2WD and a dual-motor AWD configuration. The power and torque figures range from 142 hp / 189 Nm to 172 hp / 189 Nm and 181 hp / 300 Nm (AWD), respectively. In the all-wheel-drive guise, the eVitara utilizes Suzuki’s trademark ALLGRIP-e technology by distributing torque where it is needed the most. To glide over most obstacles on the roads, it gets a healthy 180 mm ground clearance. Also, the weight of the electric SUV is from 1,702 kg to 1,899 kg. At the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, Maruti officials said that the EV will have a range of 500 km on a single charge.

On the other hand, the Tata Curvv EV is on sale in two variants – 45 kWh and 55 kWh. These two battery packs offer range figures of 502 km and 585 km on a single charge, respectively. These are some healthy numbers. Apart from that, the power and torque range from 148 hp / 215 Nm to 165 hp / 215 Nm, respectively. It is capable of supporting a 70 kW DC fast charger which allows a 10% to 80% charging time of just 40 minutes. In the most aggressive settings, the acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h comes up in just 8.6 seconds. Also, the ground clearance is a decent 190 mm and the boot capacity is over 500 litres.

Design and Dimensions

This is one aspect where the two electric SUVs differ significantly. The Maruti Suzuki eVitara comes with a rugged exterior styling. This includes Y-shaped LED DRLs integrated inside the main headlamp cluster, a tough fascia with a contoured bumper and sturdy black elements to enhance the adventurous traits. On the sides, I like the prominent fenders with matte black claddings which encapsulate dual-tone alloy wheels, side body claddings on the door panels and a hunched rear fender. At the rear, we see a shark fin antenna, a roof-mounted spoiler, connected LED taillamps and a sporty bumper. All in all, the electric SUV certainly bears an imposing road presence.

On the other hand, the Tata Curvv EV is unlike any other vehicle in this segment. It carries that coupe SUV silhouette rather well. The front fascia is quite modern with elements like a sleek LED light bar which runs the width of the vehicle, the main LED headlamp cluster is located on the sides of the unique bumper which contains attractive patterns and a skid plate under the bumper. On the sides, the EV gets elegant wheel arches with elegant alloy wheels, flush-fitting door handles, side body claddings, black side pillars and a sloping roofline. Completing the design, we get to witness a roofline along with a shark fin antenna, an extended bootlid spoiler and a connected LED strip with reflector lights on the edges of the sporty bumper at the rear. All kinds of buyers will have something unique to think about.

Price Comparison

We are yet to know the price of the Maruti Suzuki eVitara. On the other hand, the Tata Curvv EV retails between Rs 17.49 lakh and Rs 21.99 lakh, ex-showroom. We will need to wait for the launch event to know how much the eVitara will cost.

My View

Both these compelling SUVs are quite enticing in their own right. However, we will need to wait a bit longer for all the details pertaining to the Maruti Suzuku eVitara including the price. In any case, the eVitara is the first EV from the Japanese auto giant. Hence, it will come with all guns blazing and leave no stone unturned to grab customers. On the other hand, the Curvv EV is already quite popular among the masses. Let us keep an eye out for the launch of the eVitara.
