The adoption of electric four-wheelers in India is growing gradually, making it a major market for global companies. The growth of the electric vehicle (EV) market in the country is predominantly driven by government initiatives and incentives, mainly focusing on manufacturing localization, supply chain security, and export competitiveness, as well as environmental awareness. To keep up with the growing demand, global and domestic companies are on the verge of launching new EV models in the Indian market, which will not only open significant opportunities for charging infrastructure providers and battery technology companies but also pave the way for innovative financing business models, enhancing local EV component manufacturing capability and encouraging private and public companies to electrify their fleets; for example, last-mile delivery service companies shifting to EVs will see a significant spike.
This study covers the following topics:
• Industry trends impacting the Indian EV market
• EV adoption by regions/states
• EV sales contributions by primary OEMs
• OEMs’ production infrastructure, investments, and market development approach
• Future outlook for the Indian EV market
