The Suzuki Eeco (previously known as Suzuki Versa) is a microvan produced by Suzuki through its Indian subsidiary Maruti Suzuki since 2010. It is a stripped down version of the discontinued Versa which itself was the Indian version of the Suzuki Every Plus / Landy, which is an extended version of the tenth generation Carry van. It is also the entry-level replacement for the Omni, discontinued in 2019 after Suzuki was unable to redesign the Omni to meet India's safety standards.[1]
Originally, the van was launched as Versa in 2001 and based on the Every Plus / Carry 1.3. The van was powered by the same 1298cc G13BB engine that also seen in the original model or the familiar Esteem. The engine puts out 83 PS (61 kW; 82 hp) and paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. It was offered in there trim levels; STD, DX and DX2. The van was later discontinued in late 2009.

Maruti Suzuki relaunched the Versa as Eeco in January 2010.[4] The van was revised with downgrading some Versa's features and visual such as the dual blower air conditioning and colored bumpers, although the headlights were updated with more modern style. The G13BB engine was also downsized by reducing the displacement to 1196cc (G12B), the engine produced 73 PS (54 kW; 72 hp). The 5-speed gearbox was also carried over from Versa. Unlike the Versa, factory fitted CNG was available for this engine, marketed as Intelligent Gas Port Injection (i-GPI) and later as S-CNG.[5]
In March 2019, the Eeco received major safety features such as driver side airbag, ABS, seat belt reminder system, speed alert and reverse parking sensors as standard across the range.[6]
In November 2022, the Eeco received few upgrades such as a new engine, which is a 1.2-litre K12N Dualjet petrol engine, which produces 81 PS (60 kW; 80 hp), an increase of 8 PS (6 kW; 8 hp), and a claimed 25–29% higher fuel efficiency. It also received a digital speedometer from the S-Presso, engine immobiliser, new steering wheel design and steering column, rotary dials for the AC knob, cabin air-filter for the AC, illuminated hazard switch, and dual airbags. The Eeco also started being exported to the Middle East.[7]
