Tata Motors maintained a steady lead, with registrations starting at 4,814 in January, dipping to 3,463 in February, recovering to 4,590 in March, and slightly declining to 4,232 in April. The Punch EV and Nexon EV likely sustained this consistent performance.

  • MG India showed resilience, beginning with 4,397 registrations in January, declining to 3,418 in February, rebounding to 3,995 in March, and stabilizing at 3,428 in April. The Windsor EV is likely a key driver of this stability.
  • Mahindra exhibited significant growth, starting at 525 registrations in January, slightly decreasing to 457 in February, surging to 2,040 in March, and reaching 2,942 in April. The XEV 9e and BE 6 launches catalyzed this remarkable rise.
  • Hyundai saw fluctuations, starting at 331 registrations in January, increasing to 773 in February, peaking at 893 in March, and decreasing to 686 in April. The Creta Electric contributed to this steady presence since February.
  • BYD had varying registrations, starting at 325 in January, decreasing to 243 in February, increasing to 406 in March, and dropping to 343 in April. The Atto 3 and Seal are likely contributing to its initial market presence.

Mahindra’s exponential growth stands out, suggesting a strategic push through competitive pricing against ICE vehicles and expanded availability of the XEV 9e and BE 6. Tata Motors and MG India, with their established models like the Punch EV, Nexon EV, and Windsor EV, continue to lead, while Hyundai and BYD maintain a smaller but stable presence.

ElecTree’s Take: The Future of EVs in India

The Vahan Dashboard data paints a picture of a vibrant and competitive EV market in India. Tata Motors’ leadership, driven by models like the Punch EV and Nexon EV, sets a high benchmark, while Mahindra’s rapid rise with the XEV 9e and BE 6 signals a potential shift in market dynamics. MG India’s consistent performance with the Windsor EV reinforces its strong position which can only enhance by the launch of Windsor Pro, while Hyundai and BYD are carving out niches with their respective models.
