The iconic Suzuki e-Every Electric Van is all set to hit the roads soon, and the big news is – it’s officially approved for production! 🇯🇵 This electric commercial van is being developed in collaboration with Toyota and Daihatsu, bringing the best of compact design and electric mobility together.
Let’s dive into everything we know about this exciting new electric kei van from Suzuki. 👇
🔧 Based on Petrol Every Van – Now Going Electric
Suzuki already sells the petrol-powered Every van in markets like Japan and Pakistan, which is an evolution of the popular Suzuki Carry series – the same platform that gave us the legendary Maruti Omni in India. 🛻
Now, Suzuki is turning that tried-and-tested platform into a full electric commercial van, ideal for small businesses, deliveries, and urban transport.
🧑🔧 Design & Styling – Compact & Practical
The new Suzuki e-Every electric van will keep the same boxy and practical design as its petrol counterpart. Key highlights:
- Charging port placed smartly in the front bumper
- Tall roof height of around 1815 mm for great headroom
- Compact dimensions: 3395 mm length, 1475 mm width – perfect for tight city roads
- Focus on utility and space for cargo or passengers
This design is perfect for city use, local businesses, and delivery services.
🚙 Features Expected in Suzuki e-Every Van
While official details are still awaited, we can expect the electric version to offer better equipment and more features compared to the petrol version. Likely upgrades include:
- Digital instrument cluster
- Infotainment with basic smartphone connectivity
- Enhanced safety features
- More storage and modular interior design
Being an EV, it may also get regenerative braking, eco driving modes, and better NVH levels (noise, vibration, harshness).
🔋 Battery, Motor & Range – What We Know So Far
While Suzuki hasn’t officially confirmed the battery capacity, reports suggest:
- Range of around 200 km on a full charge ⚡
- Electric motor producing 64 HP
This is similar to the output from the 660cc turbo petrol engine used in current kei cars. Even the naturally aspirated version of this engine makes about 49 HP, so the electric version will offer decent performance for city use.
🤝 Toyota + Suzuki + Daihatsu = Strong Partnership
The Suzuki e-Every is not alone. Its electric siblings will be sold as:
- Toyota Pixis EV
- Daihatsu Hijet EV
All three will be built on the Daihatsu New Global Architecture (DNGA) platform, with shared electric components. This collaboration allows all three automakers to:
- Share R&D and reduce development costs
- Offer reliable and efficient electric vans
- Achieve carbon neutrality targets faster 🚙💨
🌍 Why This Van Matters – Practical EV for the Masses
The Suzuki e-Every commercial electric van is a game-changer for small businesses and eco-conscious transport. With compact dimensions, affordable running costs, and support from major Japanese automakers, it’s a smart solution for:
- Delivery services
- Intra-city logistics
- Shared transportation in narrow lanes
It blends Japanese efficiency, Toyota’s EV tech, and Suzuki’s packaging genius into one practical and planet-friendly vehicle.
