Maruti Suzuki’s much-awaited India-made electric SUV eVitara is about to face the most trusted global safety check—the Euro NCAP crash test for EVs. This is big news because it’s the first India-made Maruti model to be evaluated by this globally respected body, and the results will be announced on September 10, 2025. A strong score here could make the eVitara one of the safest Indian electric SUVs in the market, giving buyers more confidence in Made-in-India EV quality and opening doors for the model in global markets where safety ratings matter as much as performance.
Euro NCAP is known for its rigorous testing by simulating real-life accident scenarios to assess how well a car protects its passengers. Passing with high marks here is like getting an international seal of trust. For Indian EV makers, this is a rare opportunity to showcase that homegrown engineering can stand tall alongside established global players.
The eVitara has been built with modern safety in mind. It features a sturdy body structure and a battery-in-floor design for better stability, something often seen in globally tested EVs like those from Hyundai and Kia. It also shares its platform with Toyota’s Urban Cruiser EV, which means a positive Euro NCAP score could boost both models. More than just a crash test, this is a chance for Indian manufacturing to prove it can match international safety standards.
With the announcement just weeks away, all eyes are on September 10. If the eVitara delivers an impressive score, it could set a new benchmark for electric SUVs made in India and push the country further into the spotlight of the global EV industry, inspiring more automakers to follow suit.
