Germany auto major Audi is now mulling the possibility of assembling its EVs in India.
“We are looking at opportunities to locally assemble electric vehicles,” Balbir Singh Dhillon, head of Audi India, told The Economic Times. “A final decision is likely over the next couple of quarters. But it is only a matter of time,” he said.
At present, Audi has four electric vehicles in the Indian market. “Electric cars are making inroads. The penetration currently is about 2-3 per cent of overall volumes in the industry. But this will grow substantially once more products are assembled locally,” said Dhillon.
