Tata Motors and Mahindra Lead Global EV Efficiency Rankings, Charging and Range Challenges Persist
Indian automakers Tata Motors and Mahindra have ranked first and second globally in energy efficiency among electric vehicle manufacturers, according to the International Council on Clean Transportation's 2025 report. Tata Motors achieved an average energy consumption of 106 Wh/km, followed by Mahindra at 113 Wh/km, outperforming Tesla and BYD. Despite these efficiency gains, challenges remain in charging speed and driving range. The report noted limited overall improvement in energy consumption across the industry, attributing Indian success partly to the types of vehicles offered.
