The gist

Story
  • Maruti's first electric MPV, codenamed YMC, is reported to be a family-focused, possibly three-row vehicle
  • Tata's Safari EV may arrive in early 2027 with 65 kWh and 75 kWh battery options, per GaadiWaadi
  • Mahindra's BE07 is expected on sale in 2027, sharing battery options with the BE 6

What's new

GaadiWaadi reports that several carmakers are readying new electric vehicles for India. Maruti Suzuki is developing its first electric MPV, codenamed YMC, which recent test sightings suggest will have a family-oriented shape and possibly three rows of seats. It is expected to use the platform behind the e Vitara. Honda's first Indian electric SUV is based on the 0 Alpha concept and will be built at its Tapukara plant in Rajasthan. Tata's electrified Safari could arrive in early 2027 with three rows of seats and battery choices of 65 kWh and 75 kWh. Mahindra's BE07 is due next year and uses the INGLO architecture, with a 59 kWh or 79 kWh battery expected.

Why it matters

The report points to a growing range of electric options in larger family and premium SUV segments, where Indian buyers currently have fewer electric choices. Several of these models are expected to compete with existing offerings from rival brands.

What we don't know yet

Most figures, including battery sizes, prices and range, are described by the publication as expected or unconfirmed, and final specifications may differ at launch.
