03 Jul, 2025

June 2025 proved to be another important month for electric cars in India. While overall car sales faced a slowdown, the EV segment held its ground with steady numbers. Tata Motors continued to dominate, thanks to its popular Nexon EV and Tiago EV, while other brands like MG and Hyundai remained far behind in volumes.

Total Electric Car Market Size in June 2025

Estimated total EV passenger car sales: Around 7,000 – 8,500 units (approximate industry estimates for India in June 2025).
This means EVs formed roughly 2.5–3% of total car sales, which still shows a slow but stable adoption.

Which Cars Lagged Behind?

Hyundai Kona & Ioniq 5 sold under 400 units combined, limited by their higher price points (over ₹20 lakh), making them more of a niche choice.
BYD Atto 3 managed only ~250 units — mostly picked by corporates or enthusiasts looking for longer ranges.
Other smaller brands and luxury electric sedans (like BMW i4, Volvo XC40 Recharge, or Mercedes EQB) together formed a small fraction, with individual models often in double or low triple-digit monthly sales.

Key Highlights & Trends from June 2025

SUV-Style EVs Dominate:
Nexon EV and MG ZS EV proved again that Indians prefer SUV-like designs in EVs too. Hatchbacks like Tiago EV grew but the SUV look continues to pull the highest demand.
Entry EV Segment Getting Strong:
The Tiago EV’s success highlighted a clear push from middle-class buyers toward affordable electric commuting, thanks to rising petrol costs.
Premium EVs Still Slow:
Despite advanced features, high-priced models like the Ioniq 5 and Atto 3 remained out of reach for most buyers.
Fleet Purchases Help Scale:
Many Nexon EVs and Tiago EVs were also bought by leasing companies and cab aggregators, pushing up Tata’s volumes.
Charging Infrastructure Improving:
More fast chargers in top 20 cities helped reduce hesitation for urban buyers.
