      by

      eVitara Vs Urban Cruiser EVWhile most rivals come equipped with a single-motor FWD layout, Suzuki eVitara and Toyota Urban Cruiser EV offer a dual-motor 4WD option
      With electric vehicles getting more and more mainstream, OEMs are lining their offerings to cater for the growing demand. While Suzuki and Toyota are more into the ‘Hybrid vehicle’ school of thought, both companies are jointly launching global electric SUVs. Suzuki’s version is called eVitara. Toyota’s version of this vehicle debuted yesterday, called Urban Cruiser EV.
      Both the eVitara and Urban Cruiser EV are essentially the same vehicle with unique design elements. Design differences between these vehicles are more evident on the outside, while interiors are more-or-less identical. Let’s see a detailed image comparison between eVitara and Urban Cruiser EV.

      eVitara Vs Urban Cruiser EV
      Both vehicles feature a similar silhouette as they are the same vehicles under their skin. Speaking of Skin, Suzuki is going for a contemporary appeal with a more rugged and muscular approach. We can see larger headlights, more muscular bumper with a bull-bar effect, and a more pronounced closed-off grill on eVitara.
      Urban Cruiser EV, on the other hand, has a more sleek and minimalistic design appeal. The headlights are a lot sleeker, with a C-shaped insignia. The front bumper has functional air channels to smoothen airflow. Only eVitara gets fog lights, though. These vehicles have wheel sizes up to 19 inches and feature unique aero covers.

      At the sides, both vehicles get similar ORVMs, body cladding and charging ports in left front quarter panel and rear door handle in C Pillars. At the rear, things are almost identical. Tail lights are connected, but LEDs inside them are not. They both feature a similar roof spoiler, rear unpainted bumper, shark-fin antenna and others.
      Identical Interiors
      On the inside, both eVitara and Urban Cruiser EV from Suzuki and Toyota, are almost identical. The only differences we can see are the change in brand logo and the colour theme. Suzuki has gone for a dual-tone Black and Brown theme, while Toyota has executed a slightly sportier-looking all-black theme.
      Toyota Urban Cruiser EV Above, Suzuki eVitara Below
      Features-wise, both get the new tw0-spoke steering wheel, vertical AC vents, floating centre console, a 10.1-inch infotainment screen, 10.25-inch instrument cluster and a 10-inch HUD, automatic climate control, electronic parking brake, auto-dimming IRVM, 360-degree camera, powered driver seat, rear sliding and reclining seat, among others. Urban Cruiser EV looks like it gets extra tweeters.
      Under the bonnet, both Suzuki eVitara and Toyota Urban Cruiser get the same battery options and are powered by the same powertrains. Battery options are 49 kWh or 61 kWh. 2WD variants get a single motor with up to 172 bhp and 189 Nm performance. Larger pack offers a dual-motor 4WD option with a total system output of 181 bhp and 300 Nm. More

      Headlights with LED DRLs look muscular with a strong presence and bumper includes an opening in the shape of a bull bar along with fog lights. Charging port is positioned at the front left quarter panel. Suzuki seems to be aiming for a slightly sloping roofline, which is in-trend currently in India and major global markets.
      It will measure 4,275 mm in length, 1,800 mm in width, 1,635 mm in width and has a 2,700 mm long wheelbase. Minimum ground clearance is 180 mm and it has a kerb weight between 1,702 kg and 1,899 kg. There’s disc brakes on all four wheels.

      Specs & Features
      Suzuki eVitara and its Toyota counterpart will come equipped with either a 49 kWh or 61 kWh battery pack, with the latter offering dual-motor 4WD option. Based on a born-electric platform, eVitara is primarily a FWD vehicle packing up to a 172 bhp and 189 Nm motor. With 61 kWh variant, 4WD variant brings a rear electric motor with 64 bhp at the rear for a total system output of 181 bhp and 300 Nm.
