India's Electric Vehicle Market Grows with Varied State-Level Adoption and Infrastructure
India's electric vehicle (EV) market is expanding, with EVs rising from 0.5% of sales in 2018 to 8.25% by 2025-26. The India Electric Mobility Index 2025 ranks states on EV progress, infrastructure, and innovation. Delhi leads overall, while Kerala and Goa have the highest private EV adoption. Punjab ranks low, 16th among large states, with challenges in transport electrification and charging infrastructure. Commercial EV adoption varies widely, often driven by government-supported fleets, highlighting uneven private consumer uptake across states.
