Design and strength
e Vitara has been designed on a special electric platform called Heartect e Skateboard Architecture. A large part of it is made of high-tensile steel, which will make this vehicle not only light but also strong in terms of safety. This SUV will be sold through Nexa’s premium network due to its sporty look and bold design.

Charging and driving setup
This electric SUV will get fast charging support, which will take about 50 minutes to charge it from 0 to 80 percent. Although its international version will come with all-wheel-drive, only the front-wheel-drive version will be brought for the Indian market.
