India Electric Vehicle (EV) Market Size and Competitive Landscape

Executive Summary

India Electric Vehicle Market has been gaining momentum in recent years, driven by several factors such as government initiatives, environmental concerns, rising fuel prices, and technological advancements. With rising environmental concerns and a desire to compete with other countries, the Indian government has been actively promoting the adoption of electric vehicles through various initiatives. The Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Electric Vehicles (FAME) scheme provides financial incentives and subsidies for electric vehicle buyers and manufacturers. Additionally, the government has set a target to achieve 30% electric vehicle penetration in new vehicle sales by 2030. The India Electric Vehicle Market is poised for significant growth with the government's proactive measures and the increasing awareness of the benefits of electric vehicles.

According to Makreo’s research, the electric vehicle industry is at a nascent stage in India. It is less than 1% of the total vehicle sales, but has the potential to grow to more than 5% in a few years. Furthermore, the industry volumes have been fluctuating, mostly depending on the incentives offered by the government. Many serious players (Hero Eco, Ather, Electrotherm, Avon, Lohia, Ampere, etc.) are continuing with the mission and trying to enforce the positive change under the banner of SMEV.

Increasing Technological Advancements in the Nation: The electric vehicle market in India is witnessing rapid technological advancements. Battery technology is improving, leading to increased driving ranges and faster charging times. Additionally, advancements in connected vehicle technology and artificial intelligence are enhancing the overall driving experience and convenience of electric vehicles.
