Petrol Lost the Lead in India’s Car Market—But Not How You Think
FADA’s August 2026 data shows CNG, hybrid and electric passenger vehicles together reaching 41.95% of PV retail, overtaking petrol’s 40.85% for the first time. EVs alone grew 51.89% YoY to 30,696 units but dipped 6.78% month-on-month, underscoring a multi-powertrain — not EV-only — shift.
