ICE cars steal sales show so far this year, EVs in very slow lane
Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Popular in Renewables Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads The electric dream is alive, with glitzy EV launches and a loud government push, but India's bumper-to-bumper traffic remains largely fossil-fuelled. Nine out of 10 cars sold in the first half of 2025 run on internal combustion engines (ICEs).While the government has set an ambitious target for electric vehicles to make up 30% of all passenger vehicle sales by 2030, carmakers are hedging their bets, underscoring the wide gap between policy ambitions and market reality. Maruti Suzuki , India's largest carmaker, sold 87% ICE vehicles - those run on petrol, diesel and CNG - in the January-June period, with hybrid and mild hybrid EVs making up the remaining 13%, data collated by market researcher Jato Dynamics ICE share of Mahindra & Mahindra, which currently sells three EV models in the country and has several more lined up, was 93% during the period while Kia posted near 100% ICE the electric transition remains aspirational for most players, as consumers stay anchored to familiar, affordable technologies and remain reluctant to make the switch."This is the nature of transition-it's gradual, uncertain, and complex," said a senior official of a Delhi-based car company who requested not to be identified. By 2030, however, electric and hybrid vehicles will account for at least 30-40% of the market - a big leap from the current under 10%, he Tata Motors , the market leader in electric cars, sold 88% ICE vehicles in the first half. A spokesperson said the firm's multi-powertrain strategy spanning petrol, diesel, CNG, and electric is "about giving consumers the power of choice while preparing for future shifts."Only two manufacturers bucked the trend. Toyota, with a diversified approach, saw 55% of sales come from combustion engines, balanced by 29% hybrids and 16% mild hybrids. JSW MG Motor went all-in on electric, targeting urban buyers willing to pay premium prices. As a result, 81% of its sales came from battery electric vehicles (BEVs).The government is playing its part, continuing to offer FAME II (Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Electric Vehicles) subsidies and pushing stricter emission according to Ravi Bhatia, president of Jato Dynamics, price sensitivity and "charging anxiety" among consumers keep EVs largely confined to metro automotive landscape is not just vast, but deeply varied. Urban buyers prioritise convenience, while rural customers focus on affordability and durability. Some regions are seeing growing EV infrastructure, while others still struggle with basic electrification. That's why carmakers aren't putting all their eggs in one basket, Bhatia is gaining popularity in urban and semi-urban areas for its lower running costs. Diesel has lost its popularity but continues to dominate high-mileage segments such as SUVs. Petrol remains the most widely accessible EVs are making quiet but steady inroads as infrastructure begins to auto market could reach 7.5 million units by 2030, with electric and hybrid vehicles expected to capture a 30-40% Motors has committed ₹33,000-35,000 crore toward its passenger and EV businesses from FY26 to FY30 to drive product-led growth, including seven all-new nameplates and 23 model updates across ICE, CNG and electric BS7 emission norms loom and global supply chains shift toward electrification, manufacturers are carefully balancing immediate consumer demand with long-term regulatory pressures.

Supriya Sule demands dedicated authority for Hinjewadi IT hub
Baramati MP Supriya Sule on Friday wrote to chief minister Devendra Fadnavis seeking immediate intervention and a dedicated governance structure for the Rajiv Gandhi Infotech Park (RGIP) in the Hinjewadi-Maan-Marunji region. She highlighted serious civic issues in the area, which is home to more than 300 IT companies and over 3 lakh professionals. The letter comes after Sule met with IT employees and toured the IT park, including housing complexes. (HT FILE) The letter comes after Sule met with IT employees and toured the IT park, including housing complexes. She also met with local villagers. The IT employees submitted the petition that they had filed on the portal, which has till now received over 26,500 signatures. The MP was accompanied by officials from the traffic department, Pune Metropolitan Region Development Authority (PMRDA) and Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC), to address on-ground issues and provide resolutions. In her letter, Sule proposed the setting up of a dedicated governing body for Hinjewadi, Maan, Marunji, and surrounding urbanising villages like Jambhe, Gahunje, Lavale, Nande, Pirangut and Bhukum. She suggested forming a 'Special City Development Authority' or an 'Industrial Township Authority' for the area to ensure planned growth, funding, and effective delivery of services. She highlighted that the area contributes significantly to Maharashtra's economy, with RGIP being one of the largest software export zones in the state. According to the 2024 STPI (Software Technology Parks of India) report, Pune's annual software exports total ₹1.05 lakh crore, a major share of which comes from Hinjewadi alone. STPI is an autonomous society under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology that promotes the IT industry and startup ecosystem in India. Sule pointed out that despite PMRDA rules mandating 135 litre per capita daily (LPCD) water supply since 2018, no secure source has been arranged till now. 'Residents are forced to depend on tankers and borewells. However, construction approvals continue despite the lack of water infrastructure,' she said. The letter also stated that flooding during monsoon, due to unplanned construction and blocked natural streams, is another major concern as roads and homes get damaged. 'MP Sule had arranged a meeting at the Gram Panchayat office, where the residents of Hinjewadi discussed several issues, including drainage, traffic, waste management, school bus services, and traffic management. She proposed to hold monthly meetings until the issues are resolved and a satisfactory outcome is achieved,' said an IT employee, who is a resident of Hinjewadi. In response to Sule's letter, PMRDA officials stated that they have already started working on planned interventions to address civic issues in the Hinjewadi IT Park. The PMRDA and MIDC have given stop work notices to over nine projects for unauthorised constructions and not maintaining the natural nullah. PMRDA commissioner Yogesh Mhase, said, 'Debris has been removed from the Pandavnagar area of Hinjewadi Phase II. All agencies, including Gram Panchayats and developers have been asked to open the natural nullahs which have been blocked. Reinstatement of roads and pavements have also been done. An immediate meeting will be held for land acquisition for highway-130 and road widening to reduce traffic congestion. After land is handed over, the MIDC will develop the road.' MIDC officials said that they have already started maintenance of the stormwater drainage system. 'We laid new cross drainage pipes to the Bank of Maharashtra and a longitudinal drain will be laid connecting nullahs. Also, a consultant has been appointed to study stormwater collection and disposal systems,' said an official.
