Suzuki has begun production of its first electric scooter, the e-Access, at its Gurugram plant. Launch expected soon. Features include a 95 km range, 4.1 kW motor, regenerative braking, ride modes, and fast charging.
Suzuki Motorcycle India Pvt Ltd (SMIPL) has officially entered the electric mobility space with its first electric scooter, the e-Access. After being showcased at the 2025 Auto Expo, the scooter has now moved to the production phase. The first unit of the Suzuki e-Access recently rolled out from the company’s manufacturing facility in Gurgaon, Haryana, marking a significant milestone for Suzuki’s EV journey in the Indian two-wheeler market.
Suzuki e-Access: Brand’s First Electric Scooter for India
Unveiled earlier this year, the Suzuki e-Access is the brand’s first electric scooter developed for Indian roads. Built with a focus on daily urban commuting, Suzuki says the e-Access is designed to be reliable, durable, and efficient. At the core of this EV is the brand’s new e-Technology platform, featuring a Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery pack. Suzuki claims the battery has passed several rigorous tests, including water submersion, extreme temperatures, impact, vibration, drop, puncture, and motor bench tests.
Packed with Features and Technology
The e-Access will come equipped with Suzuki’s SDMS-e (Suzuki Drive Mode Selector – electric), offering multiple ride modes such as Eco Mode, Ride Mode A, Ride Mode B, and a Reverse Mode. The scooter also supports regenerative braking and uses a belt-drive system for power delivery to the rear wheel, aimed at reducing noise and requiring minimal maintenance.
Visually, the e-Access sports a sleeker and sharper design compared to its petrol-powered sibling, the Access 125. The front features a sculpted apron with a vertical LED DRL and integrated indicators. The full-LED headlamp unit gives it a modern appearance, while the dual-tone body panels and contrasting seat colours add a premium touch. A fully digital TFT instrument cluster is part of the setup, expected to support smartphone connectivity and other digital functions.
