TL;DR
Indian EV sales, including two and three-wheelers and passenger vehicles, exceeded 200,000 units in October 2025, driven by the festive season, showing an 11% sequential increase.
India’s electric vehicle (EV) sales experienced a significant rebound in October 2025, surpassing the two-lakh unit mark. Total EV registrations across all segments reached approximately 2.04 lakh units as of October 29, indicating an 11% sequential increase after two months of month-on-month decline. This surge is largely attributed to the ongoing festive season and improved consumer sentiment.
The electric two-wheeler (E2W) segment witnessed a strong resurgence, with around 1.24 lakh registrations by October 29, marking an 18% month-on-month increase. This growth occurred despite persistent challenges like magnet supply constraints affecting EV production.
