The e Vitara will be Maruti’s first EV in India and first impressions are that the interior is a big upgrade from any of Maruti’s existing products. The design is contemporary, with a floating dual-screen infotainment and instrumentation console, the shelf-like horizontally stacked dashboard and the floating centre console finished in gloss black. Interesting details are the twin-spoke flat-bottom steering wheel, the rectangular AC vents with their brushed silver surrounds, the rotary drive state selector and the part fabric, part leatherette upholstery.
Equipment highlights include dual 10-inch screens, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, single-zone auto climate control, wireless phone charger, keyless entry, a 360-degree camera, a sunroof, a powered driver’s seat and an Infinity-branded audio system.
