Suzuki e-access Launch :

12, January 2026. By -Kaushik

Suzuki has officially entered the Indian electric vehicle market with the launch of the Suzuki e-Access, an electric version of its best-selling Access 125. Launched on January 9, 2026, the e-Access is designed as a practical, family-oriented urban commuter that prioritizes reliability and build quality over raw, aggressive speed.

Price and Variants
​The Suzuki e-Access is currently available in a single standard variant. 
​Ex-showroom Price: ₹1,88,490 (Delhi). 
​Introductory Offers: Existing Suzuki customers can avail of a loyalty discount of up to ₹10,000, while non-Suzuki customers are eligible for a discount of up to ₹7,000. 
​Ownership Peace of Mind: Suzuki is offering a complimentary 7-year or 80,000 km extended warranty and a buy-back assurance of up to 60% after three years. 

Mileage (Range) and Battery
​Unlike many competitors using NMC (Nickel Manganese Cobalt) chemistry, Suzuki has opted for Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) cells, which are known for their thermal stability and longer life cycles. 
​Claimed IDC Range: 95 km per full charge. 
​Real-world Range: Expected to be between 70–80 km depending on the ride mode and city traffic conditions. 
​Battery Capacity: 3.07 kWh (Fixed battery setup).

Performance Highlights
​The e-Access delivers a refined and linear power delivery, staying true to the smooth nature of its petrol predecessor. 
​Motor: 4.1 kW Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM). 
​Torque: 15 Nm available instantly. 
​Top Speed: 71 km/h. 
​Ride Modes:
​Eco: Limits speed to 55 km/h and maximizes regenerative braking for efficiency. 
​Ride A: Balanced performance with moderate regeneration.
​Ride B: Full power for zippy overtakes and higher speeds.
​Low-Battery Performance: Suzuki claims the scooter maintains consistent throttle response and acceleration even when the battery level drops to 10%, avoiding the “limp home” lag seen in some EVs. 
​Charging Details
​Home/Portable Charging: Takes approximately 6 hours and 20 minutes for a full charge (0–100%) and 4.5 hours to reach 80%.
​DC Fast Charging: Through Suzuki’s expanding network, the battery can go from 0 to 80% in just 1 hour and 12 minutes, with a full charge completed in 2 hours and 12 minutes. 

​Key Features
​Suzuki has packed the e-Access with modern tech while keeping the interface user-friendly:
​4.2-inch TFT Console: A fully digital display with Bluetooth connectivity for turn-by-turn navigation, call/message alerts, and battery health monitoring. 
​Keyless System: Features a key fob for remote ignition, boot release, and steering lock. 
​Practical Storage: Includes a 17-liter under-seat storage space and a front “carry hook” for bags. 
​Safety & Handling: Equipped with a front disc brake (Combi-Brake System), a 160 mm ground clearance, and a “Tip Over Sensor” that cuts the motor if the scooter falls. 
​Reverse Mode: Helpful for navigating tight parking spots in urban environments. 

Conclusion
​While the Suzuki e-Access sits at a premium price point compared to the TVS iQube or Bajaj Chetak, it positions itself as a “buy-and-forget” vehicle backed by Suzuki’s massive service network of over 1,200 touchpoints. It is ideal for families who want the familiarity of the Access brand with the low running costs of an electric motor.
