The Indian automotive market has a little too much from just ups and downs. The government has just revised taxation on the sale of used cars. On the flip side, a select few states are offering zero-road-tax schemes for EVs and hybrid vehicles. In summation, the industry has managed to register a positive outlook for the year 2024 with a slew of launches. The year 2025 is also expected to be chart-busting, as it prepares itself for some kickass car entries in the market. While over a dozen new SUVs are coming in India this year in addition to other body styles, here are the top 5 upcoming cars in India in 2025 that are keeping us excited.
The e Vitara is expected to make its India debut at the Bharat Mobility Expo, with its launch sometime later. The car will be sold with two battery pack choices - 49 kWh and 61 kWh. In fact, it will be manufactured in India for export markets as well.
The Creta Electric is to Hyundai what the e Vitara will be to Maruti Suzuki. Both of these SUVs will go against the likes of the Mahindra BE 6, Tata Curvv, and MG ZS EV. Talking of the Creta Electric's specs, it features two battery pack options including a 42 kWh battery pack offering a range of 390 km on a single charge and a long-range version with a 51.4 kWh battery pack offering a range of 473 km on a single charge. The SUV will make its first public presence at the Bharat Mobility Expo.
The all-electric roadster is designed to catch attention and go fast. It also gets the slimmest 77 kWh battery pack. It manages to do a 0-100 kmph sprint in just 3.2 seconds and gets a claimed range of 580 km on a single charge.
The car boasts of a polarizing design, but a super-practical cabin space. The rear bench can slide and recline on the Syros, and it is even ventilated. All of this is a first-in-segment affair. There's a panoramic sunroof too. These bits make us excited about the Syros, and only time will tell - how warmly or coldly the audience will accept the Syros.
The SUV is now expected to make its entry to our shores again in its third-generation form. It is already revealed globally and boasts a robust design language with multiple powertrain choices. Expect the Duster to officially go on sale in India by the end of this year.
Upcoming Cars in 2025 | Maruti e Vitara to MG Cyberster
Maruti Suzuki e Vitara
Maruti Suzuki kept itself at bay when the brand was questioned about its electric car. It was only at the end of 2024 that Suzuki e Vitara broke covers globally as the Japanese marque's first-ever all-electric offering.
The e Vitara is expected to make its India debut at the Bharat Mobility Expo, with its launch sometime later. The car will be sold with two battery pack choices - 49 kWh and 61 kWh. In fact, it will be manufactured in India for export markets as well.
Hyundai Creta Electric
The Creta Electric is to Hyundai what the e Vitara will be to Maruti Suzuki. Both of these SUVs will go against the likes of the Mahindra BE 6, Tata Curvv, and MG ZS EV. Talking of the Creta Electric's specs, it features two battery pack options including a 42 kWh battery pack offering a range of 390 km on a single charge and a long-range version with a 51.4 kWh battery pack offering a range of 473 km on a single charge. The SUV will make its first public presence at the Bharat Mobility Expo.MG Cyberster
The Cyberster's existence on this list is not for the reasons that the Hyundai Creta Electric or the Maruti Suzuki e Vitara possess. Instead, it is the hottest car on this list with a droptop body style.
The all-electric roadster is designed to catch attention and go fast. It also gets the slimmest 77 kWh battery pack. It manages to do a 0-100 kmph sprint in just 3.2 seconds and gets a claimed range of 580 km on a single charge.
Kia Syros
The Kia Syros is an innovative product and a bold step from the South Korean manufacturer. It fits between the Sonet and Seltos, which is quite questionable. The carmaker, however, has managed to aid the Syros with all the good bits of the Seltos and Sonet, and further spice it up with loads of features.
The car boasts of a polarizing design, but a super-practical cabin space. The rear bench can slide and recline on the Syros, and it is even ventilated. All of this is a first-in-segment affair. There's a panoramic sunroof too. These bits make us excited about the Syros, and only time will tell - how warmly or coldly the audience will accept the Syros.
Renault Duster
The Renault Duster kickstarted the mid-size SUV segment, which now sees the fiercest competition. The SUV boosted Renault India's sales and paved the way for other products too. However, Renault India's partial behaviour towards the Duster resulted in its discontinuation.
The SUV is now expected to make its entry to our shores again in its third-generation form. It is already revealed globally and boasts a robust design language with multiple powertrain choices. Expect the Duster to officially go on sale in India by the end of this year.
