The shift towards electric mobility has flourished dynamically in India during recent years. This can be witnessed by the increasing number of electric vehicles on the roads. The absence of sufficient infrastructure for electric mobility is no longer a big challenge. However, there is still a need for advanced infrastructure towards the complete electrification of mobility. A recent report by Tata Motors shows how far the country has come in just two years.

 

 

A Fourfold Growth in Charging Stations

 

According to the report, India’s public charging network has grown dynamically four times from 5,500 stations to 23,000 stations between 2023 and 2025. This rapid growth was made possible by collaborations between central and state governments, OEMs, and private solution providers. In just 15 months, more than 18,000 chargers were added nationwide. One of the most encouraging milestones is that 91% of national highways now have a fast charger within 50 km. In fact, states and union territories such as Karnataka, Delhi, Kerala, Haryana, Punjab, Goa, and several others have 100% fast-charging facility on their highways. 

 

Changing Consumer Behaviour

The availability of developed infrastructure has helped in gaining the confidence of EV aspirants.  According to the data revealed in the report, 35% of Tata EV consumers use a fast charger at least once a month, up from 21% in 2023. Around 77% of owners have taken trips that required public charging, and nearly half completed journeys of over 500 km. Thus, eliminates the problem of “range anxiety.” Interestingly, around 14,000 EV owners now depend on the use of public charging instead of home charging setups. This information is enough to express the trust of EV owners in India’s public charging infrastructure.

 

Increase In EV Adoption Across India

 

According to the report 65% of Indian pin codes now have at least one registered EV, showing the increasing shift to electric mobility.  Change in buying patterns has also increased.  In 2025, 84% of EV users consider their EV their primary vehicle, compared to 74% in 2023. Thanks to low running costs, EV owners drive an average of 27 days a month — 35% more than ICE vehicle users. It is believed that electric vehicles cover around 1,600 km of distance per month. This distance is about 40% higher than that of petrol or diesel cars. Today, you can see electric vehicles running not only on urban and rural roads but also on highways, making them suitable for all types of roads across the country.

 

Future of Electric Mobility in India

 

India is moving towards electric mobility at high speed. With the growth of public charging infrastructure and the trust of consumers, India is moving towards electric mobility at high speed. The combination of affordability, accessibility, and long-range confidence is reshaping how Indians view mobility. The future of transportation in India is electric, and the presence of sufficient charging infrastructure will further strengthen this shift.
