India’s automobile sector is expected to go all-electric in the coming years, and 2021 is going to be a testimony of that. There is a general buzz around electric cars in India. This is largely attributed to several central and state government EV policies giving a big push to go electric. Additionally, there are a series of EV cars that are expected to launch in India this year. From luxury carmaker Audi to mainstream car manufacturer Maruti Suzuki, all have lined up their EV cars. Apart from this, Tesla is also finally making its debut in the country. Here are all the electric cars in India expected to launch in 2021:
