India Electric Car Market Trends




  • Lowering India's oil imports is driving the market growth




India has been spending a lot of money importing crude oil to power its automobiles. About 80% of the oil used in India is imported, according to the Petroleum Planning and Analysis Cell (PPAC). This means that fluctuations in crude prices could have a negative impact on the exchequer and the economy. Reducing oil imports—a large portion of which is used to run vehicles will result from a drive toward the use of Evs. It would enable the government to reallocate these money to the construction of the nationwide infrastructure required to power electric cars, including capacity for producing batteries and charging stations. Furthermore, the country's need for electric cars is rising as a result of falling lithium-ion battery prices and the "Make in India" initiative's growing emphasis on homegrown manufacturing. In addition, the Indian electric cars market CAGR is anticipated to be driven in the upcoming years by the increasing integration of EVs with a number of cutting-edge technologies, including remote sensors, GPS navigation, anti-theft locking systems, etc.


Additionally, the growth in electric vehicle manufacturing and sales is mostly due to government programs and subsidies. To encourage the use of electric car in the country, the Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of (Hybrid &) Electric cars (FAME) in India program was introduced in April 2015. Following that, in April 2019, the FAME-II scheme—which would have supported 55,000 e-passenger cars and charging stations was introduced with a budget cost of $1.3 billion (INR 10,000 crore). The Union Budget 2022–2023 indicated the government's extension of the program until 2024. The program is mostly applicable to cars registered for commercial use or utilized for public transportation, with a strong focus on providing accessible and environmentally friendly public transit to the general public. Moreover, Karnataka leads the list of states with the most participants in the scheme, followed by Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, and Delhi. This is likely due to the additional incentives offered at the state level. In May 2021, the government also introduced the manufacture-Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme for Advanced Chemistry Cell (ACC) Battery Storage Manufacturing in an effort to reduce reliance on imports and encourage domestic battery manufacture. With the necessary infrastructure in place, this will help the Electric Vehicles business even more and drastically lower the price of electric cars. Thus, driving the India Electric Car market revenue.


India Electric Car Market Insights:


Electric Car Propulsion Type Insights


The India Electric Car market segmentation, based on propulsion type includes battery electric vehicles (BEV) and hybrid electric car (HEV). The battery electric car (BEV) segment dominated the India Electric Car market mostly. Advances in electric powertrain technology, such as increased torque and power output, are opening up new applications for battery electric vehicle (BEVs) in a variety of settings. The market for BEVs is also driven by rising government and automotive industry initiatives in India, the development of rapid and ultra-quick charging technologies, and growing consumer acceptance of BEVs because they are emission-free and produce less noise and vibration.


Electric Car Drive Type Insights


The India Electric Car market segmentation, based on drive type, includes all wheel drive, front wheel drive and rear wheel drive. The front wheel drive category generated the most income. This growth is explained by the vehicle's cost effectiveness. In general, front-wheel drive systems are less expensive to produce and maintain than all-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive systems. Customers may now purchase front-wheel drive vehicles at a lower cost, which is contributing to the expansion of the India Electric Car market.


Electric Car Range Insights


The India Electric Car market segmentation, based on range, includes up to 150 miles, 151-300 miles and above 300 miles. The up to 150 miles category generated the most income as a result of the popularity of electric vans and light trucks. Electric Vehicles adoption is still in its early stages. Segmental growth will therefore be fueled by the rising demand for electric automobiles.

India Electric Car Market Regional Insights


In India, the India Electric Car market has been steadily expanding. One of the main things pushing electric car sales is the rising cost of gasoline. Additionally, the Indian government is encouraging the usage of electric cars in an effort to lessen air pollution and support sustainable growth. In an effort to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and enhance air quality, electric cars are also being used in public transit. Furthermore, the nation's need for electric cars is being fueled by the expanding number of electric car charging stations. This is bolstering the market's growth, along with the addition of the internet of things (IoT) to electric car charging station systems, which helps consumers find nearby charging stations, find empty places, and arrange opportune times for fill-ups. 


In addition, the Government of India is launching programs to offer various subsidies and financial help for the purchase of electric cars. Moreover, a growing number of ride-sharing businesses are using electric cars to provide their clients with quiet, environmentally responsible journeys. However, the government's implementation of favorable laws and programs contributed to the robust growth of electric cars in India in 2021. India's largest percentage of electric car sales in 2021 belonged to Uttar Pradesh. Along with Tamil Nadu (30,036 units) and Karnataka (33,302 units), the total number of units sold across all categories was 66,704.
