Suzuki and Toyota: Departure into the Electric Future

The Japanese automobile manufacturer Suzuki Motor has announced that its Indian subsidiary will deliver its first electric vehicle to Toyota Motor. This is part of the global partnership between the two companies, which was announced in a joint statement on Wednesday. Maruti Suzuki, in which Suzuki Motor holds a majority stake, plans to start production of the electric vehicle in the spring of 2025 at its plant in the western Indian state of Gujarat. The vehicle was developed in collaboration with Suzuki, Toyota, and Daihatsu Motor. This cooperation could initiate a significant step towards electromobility in India and strengthen the partners' position in the global market.
