VIDEO: India’s EV Charging Challenge Explained

By 2030, India could have 50 million electric vehicles on its roads, but building the 1.32 million charging stations needed to support them is an enormous challenge. Despite government efforts, the country’s fragmented charging ecosystem and lack of automaker investment risk slowing EV adoption.

This video explores why original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) in India have been hesitant to directly fund charging infrastructure—unlike their global counterparts who have formed alliances like IONNA in the U.S. and what needs to change for the country to achieve its electrification goals. We dive into the “chicken-and-egg” dilemma of EV growth and charging availability and what it will take to convince the next wave of buyers to go electric.
