India’s automobile sector is set to undergo a significant transformation, with a shift not limited to electric vehicles (EVs) but inclusive of hybrids and plug-in hybrids, according to a report by Elara Securities. The report underscores that a blend of EVs, hybrids, and plug-in hybrids will be pivotal in driving the country’s transition toward cleaner energy solutions.
The report notes substantial growth in the Indian EV market, with global EV sales hitting 14 million in 2023 and India seeing a 90 percent growth rate. By 2030, the Indian government targets 30 percent EV penetration, with key enablers such as expanded charging infrastructure, advanced battery management systems, and the introduction of new EV models playing critical roles. Gaurav Gupta, Chief Growth Officer at JSW MG Motor India, stated, “In the next 5-6 years, around 200,000 chargers will be needed, with 1 charger for every 50 vehicles. By CY30, connected car adoption is expected to reach 75-80 percent, and ADAS adoption should hit 45 percent, making BEV acquisition more attractive.”
