The second-hand electric vehicle (EV) market in India is experiencing a significant boom, with buyer inquiries increasing by 40 percent. This trend indicates a notable shift in consumer behavior, as electric vehicles move beyond initial adoption phases into a more practical resale market for Indian customers.
According to Ritika Jatin Ahuja, COO of Big Boy Toyz, the rise in interest for used EVs reflects a growing confidence among buyers. Many consumers, previously hesitant to commit to a new electric car, are now viewing pre-owned models as a lower-risk entry point into the EV segment.
