India’s electric vehicle story just hit a big checkpoint. Tata Motors has crossed cumulative sales of 2.5 lakh electric cars in the country, tightening its grip as the undisputed leader of India’s fast-growing EV market. The milestone comes at a time when electric mobility is still finding its feet in India, making the achievement stand out even more.
According to the company, Tata EVs now account for around 66% of all electric cars sold in India, underlining how early bets on EVs are paying off.

Nexon EV leads Tata’s electric push
A large chunk of Tata’s EV success comes from the Tata Nexon EV, which recently became the first electric car in India to cross 1 lakh cumulative sales. Since its launch, the Nexon EV has played a key role in making electric cars mainstream, thanks to its familiar SUV design, improving range figures, and expanding charging ecosystem.
Models like the Tiago EV and Tigor EV have also helped Tata reach buyers looking for more affordable electric options, especially in urban markets.
India’s EV market is still warming up
While overall EV adoption in India is growing steadily, electric cars still make up a small share of total passenger vehicle sales. That’s what makes Tata’s 2.5 lakh sales figure notable — it reflects both early mover advantage and a strong understanding of what Indian buyers want from EVs: usable range, reasonable pricing, and trust in after-sales support.
Three new Tata EVs confirmed for 2026
Looking ahead, Tata Motors has confirmed that it plans to launch five new electric cars by FY2030, with three key models arriving in 2026.
Here’s what’s coming:
Tata Sierra EV
The iconic Sierra nameplate is making a comeback as the Tata Sierra EV. Expected to sit above the Nexon EV, the Sierra EV will likely focus on premium interiors, modern tech, and a longer driving range.
Updated Punch EV
The Tata Punch EV is set to receive an update and relaunch in 2026. With its compact size and SUV-like stance, the Punch EV is expected to target city buyers and first-time EV owners.
Tata Avinya
Perhaps the most ambitious of the lot, Tata Avinya represents Tata’s future-facing EV philosophy. Based on a new dedicated electric platform, Avinya is expected to showcase next-gen design, advanced connectivity, and a strong focus on sustainability.
