Hybrid cars are rapidly gaining popularity in India overtaking battery electric vehicle sales for three straight months this financial year.
New car buyers are taking a penchant for the handful of hybrid vehicles currently on sale in the Indian market such as Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder, Honda City and Toyota Innova Hycross. The increasing demand for fuel-efficient hybrid cars underscores customers’ growing environmental awareness and concern over the limited range and charging infrastructure challenges posed by fully electric cars.
