HDFC Bank Introduces Flexible Electric Vehicle Loan with Separate Battery Repayment
HDFC Bank has launched the Flexi Electric Car Loan, allowing customers to finance the body and battery of electric vehicles separately with longer repayment terms for the battery. This structure aims to lower monthly payments by aligning battery EMIs with the running costs of conventional vehicles. The loan supports India's growing electric vehicle market, offering flexibility and cost-effectiveness amid government incentives and technological advances. It is available across HDFC Bank's branches for EVs from leading manufacturers.
