The SUV segment is certainly growing leaps and bounds and the calendar year 2023 will see the arrival of a number of new models. Here we have covered all the soon-launching SUVs and beyond them, more SUVs like Maruti Suzuki Jimny are waiting in the pipeline.

1. Citroen eC3:

The electric version of the Citroen C3 will be launched soon in India. Compared to its sibling, the exterior changes are minimal as the absence of an exhaust pipe and charging port mounted on the front fender are the only difference. The French manufacturer will export the eC3 from its production facility in Tamil Nadu and the interior gets a new drive selector.
