India's electric vehicle (EV) market experienced a significant surge in 2025, with sales reaching 2.3 million units and accounting for 8% of all new vehicle registrations. This growth was primarily fueled by government incentives and festive season demand. Electric two-wheelers dominated the market, comprising 57% of total EV sales with 1.28 million units, followed by three-wheelers at 35% with 0.8 million units, and four-wheelers contributing 175,000 units.
Uttar Pradesh led the nation in EV adoption, selling 400,000 units and capturing an 18% market share, with Maharashtra and Karnataka following closely. The report also highlighted substantial progress in electric delivery vehicles and a record government order for 10,900 electric buses, valued at ₹10,900 crore, under the PM E-DRIVE scheme. These developments indicate a strong foundation for sustained growth in India's EV sector beyond 2025, driven by efforts to electrify commercial vehicles and enhance charging infrastructure.
