Top 5 Budget Electric Cars in India (2025 Edition) : Electric cars are not futuristic things anymore; these are – to be precise- realistic and can now affordably be put to use in the cities. With India’s EV market booming, most manufacturers that have entered the EV space have designed affordable EVs for middle-class households by 2025. Apart from that, these fast commuter pictures also have the added benefits of a completely zero-emission tailpipe and considerable savings on running costs. So, looking for a budget-friendly electric vehicle in 2022? Here are the most affordable picks: top five under Rs 12 lakh (ex-showroom).
Tata Tiago EV
One of the cheapest electric hatchbacks in India, the Tata Tiago EV boasts two battery options (19.2 kWh and 24 kWh) and promises to take you 315 km per charge. It is compact and easily maneuverable in cities, plus comfortable, with a touchscreen infotainment system, reverse camera, and cruise control.
MG Comet EV
MG Comet EV is a cheeky small city vehicle that fits street demands. Yet, it is really compact, so you can roll through the narrowest parts of a city. The car has a 17.3 kWh battery and can go up another 230 km. It comes with its own digital instrument cluster and smart connectivity features.
Citroën eC3
It is a small hatch with an SUV-like gait and big interior space-the French way of thinking and practicality together. The eC3 also promises up to 320 km range from a 29.2 kWh battery. Besides, it allows for DC fast charging and has a 10.2-inch infotainment screen with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
Tata Punch EV
Expected early 2025, the Punch EV might be an electric product that can boast of sporty aesthetics resembling that of an SUV. Punch EV carries two sizes of battery packs, boasting over 300 km in range and considered the perfect family car. Its few affordably priced EVs offer features like sunroof and large touchscreen, with it being one of the many of such models.
PMV EaS-E
It can all put together entice extremely cost-conscious customers in need of transporting themselves alone most days within the city in checking out the PMV EaS-E micro-car. It sells for around Rs 5-6 lakh, has almost 200 km of range, which will also fit in parking spots that are tight due to size. For almost all of the time, this unit was never made for long distances but rather its intended use at a barge-low-cost power for short shopping trips.
