Introduction to EV and Hybrid Growth in India 🚗⚡
In the last six months, India has seen a rise in electric vehicle (EV) sales. This is mainly due to new models being launched and government incentives. A recent report by HSBC highlights this positive trend and discusses how hybrids and EVs can grow together.
Hybrids Are Not Competing with EVs 🤝
Many people think that hybrids and EVs are in competition. However, HSBC’s report suggests they are actually complementary. When states introduced incentives for hybrid vehicles, the sales of electric vehicles also increased. This shows that both types of vehicles can thrive in the market.
Multi-Powertrain Future for India 🌍
India is on its way to becoming a multi-powertrain market. This means that we will have different types of vehicles, including Strong Hybrid Electric Vehicles (SHEVs) and Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs). These vehicles attract different customers, helping the market grow.
Sales Growth in Electric Vehicles 📈
According to the report, the sales of BEVs rose significantly in states offering SHEV incentives. For instance, in FY 2025, the sales growth of EVs matched the growth of SHEVs. The launch of new models like MG Windsor and M&M BEV has also boosted 4-wheeler EV penetration from 1.9% to 3.2% in just a few quarters.
Conclusion: A Bright Future for EVs and Hybrids 🌟
The report emphasizes that promoting SHEVs will not hinder the adoption of EVs. Instead, it creates opportunities for market development. Together, EVs and hybrids can make a significant impact on India’s automotive landscape.
