Mint Quick Edit | Electrifying Indian traffic: battery powered vehicles are racing up sales charts
India’s EV market is experiencing rapid overall growth, with September registrations exceeding 300,000 units. Electric cars are notably gaining significant traction, almost doubling annually. This surge is fueled by rising confidence, reduced range anxiety, diverse offerings, and enhanced charging infrastructure.
