Suzuki’s first global production EV has already been previewed by two concepts but the final version won’t arrive before 2025

Suzuki is set to unveil an evolved iteration of its eVX Concept at the Japan Mobility Show 2023. However, independent digital artist Theottle has taken a leap into the future, offering a glimpse of his vision for the ultimate production version slated to hit the roads in 2025.
The original Suzuki eVX concept made its debut in January 2023, with the commitment to transform into a fully electric production SUV by 2025. Although the refreshed study set to premiere on October 25 remains in concept form, the digital artist was inspired by recent spy shots of a heavily camouflaged prototype to envision a more production-ready SUV.

The speculative illustration preserves the fundamental styling elements of the latest Suzuki eVX Concept, such as the sculpted fenders, plastic cladding, and robust bumper design. However, it incorporates several subdued elements, with the most notable revision being the slimmer headlights, which exhibit a more conventional appearance compared to the Y-shaped LEDs featured in the concept.
Other changes include the production alloy wheels taken from Suzuki’s current catalog, the larger mirror caps, and the addition of roof rails. Theottle also kept the original bi-tone treatment of the exterior, as well as the aluminum-style accents on the lower portion of the body. Interestingly, his renderings were based on photos of the totally unrelated Skoda Kushaq, although all of the body panels came from the Suzuki eVX concept.
According to Suzuki, the eVX concept measures 4,300 mm (169.3 inches) long, 1,800 mm (70.9 inches) wide, and 1,600 mm (63 inches) tall. This means that the production model will likely have a similar footprint to the SX4 S-Cross, being slightly longer than the Vitara. The eVX plays a very important role for Suzuki as it will be its first global battery electric model. The automaker promises a targeted range of 500 km (311 miles) from a 60 kWh battery pack and great off-road credentials thanks to an electronically controlled 4×4 system.
