TL;DR
Bihar's electric vehicle registrations are rapidly increasing due to supportive government policies and expanding charging infrastructure, with a target of 500 new charging stations in two years.
Bihar has experienced a significant increase in electric vehicle (EV) adoption, with annual registrations surpassing 1.23 lakh in 2025. This growth is projected to continue throughout 2026, driven by increasing environmental awareness and supportive government policies. The state's Electric Vehicle (Amendment) Policy, 2026, plays a crucial role by offering subsidies for the purchase of two-wheelers, three-wheelers, and four-wheeler EVs, alongside incentives for developing charging infrastructure.
Efforts are underway to rapidly expand the EV charging network in major cities such as Patna, Gaya, Muzaffarpur, and Bhagalpur. The state government has set an ambitious target of establishing at least 500 charging stations across Bihar within the next two years. These initiatives are part of a broader commitment to promote electric mobility and contribute to a cleaner, healthier environment by reducing air pollution and reliance on fossil fuels.
