Suzuki has unveiled the e SKY, its first battery-electric passenger kei car, with a reference driving range of 310 kilometers as the Japanese automaker prepares to enter one of the country’s most competitive small-car segments.
Suzuki released preliminary information on Aug. 24 and plans to launch the e SKY in Japan in autumn 2026. The company has not yet announced pricing or final production specifications.
The e SKY is the production evolution of the Vision e-Sky concept that Suzuki unveiled at the Japan Mobility Show 2025 in Tokyo. The concept was presented as a light passenger battery-electric vehicle designed specifically around the needs of kei-car users, with Suzuki targeting commercialization during fiscal 2026.
