Delhi EV Registrations Reach 2026 High Following New EV Policy Announcement
Electric vehicle registrations in Delhi reached a 2026 high of 10,719 units in July, driven by the Delhi government's new EV Policy 2.0 announced on July 1. The policy offers incentives, tax exemptions, and infrastructure expansion to promote electric mobility. Registrations have steadily increased since January, with plans to phase out petrol and CNG two-wheelers by 2028 and establish a robust EV ecosystem by 2030. Subsidies for e-two-wheelers and exemptions for electric cars under Rs 30 lakh are also included.
