At the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2027, Maruti Suzuki plans to debut two vehicles: an unannounced electric model and a refreshed Fronx. The automaker has verified its second battery-electric vehicle will appear at the February event, though the name remains undisclosed. Meanwhile, the facelifted Fronx, seen undergoing testing, has yet to receive official confirmation for the Expo, leaving its participation as speculation rather than certainty.
Maruti’s second EV is an MPV known internally as YMC, following the e Vitara. Spotted on Indian roads, test units suggest a three-row design. The company is considering both six and seven-seat arrangements, though the layout remains unconfirmed.
Maruti Suzuki YMC Electric MPV
The YMC is expected to use the HEARTECT-e electric platform that underpins the e Vitara. This could allow it to share battery and motor technology with the electric SUV, although the final powertrain specifications have not been announced. Reports suggest that the MPV could get battery options of around 48.8 kWh and 61.1 kWh, with the larger pack potentially offering a claimed range of over 500 km.
This MPV aims to compete with the Kia Carens Clavis EV within a niche segment. Its interior is anticipated to feature a modern tech package, possibly including connected screens and ADAS. The complete list of features is expected to be revealed soon.
Maruti Suzuki Fronx Facelift
The Fronx has been an important model for Maruti Suzuki, and the company is now working on a mid-cycle update. Camouflaged test vehicles have already been spotted, suggesting that the facelift is progressing towards production. The updated model is expected to receive revised front-end styling, including a redesigned grille and bumper.
Spy photos also suggest the facelift will include an ADAS sensor in the grille and rear disc brakes, a step up from the current model’s rear drum setup. Additionally, it may borrow some interior and equipment upgrades from the refreshed Baleno, though the extent of these changes is still unknown.
As the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2027 approaches, more details about both models should emerge. The event is scheduled to take place from February 4 to 9 in New Delhi. With Maruti Suzuki’s second electric car confirmed for the Expo, the company’s display is likely to draw considerable attention. The Fronx facelift could add another important update to the company’s lineup, although its debut timing is not confirmed.
