About EV Index India
Independent electric vehicle buying guides for India
Good luck finding EV information in India that doesn't trace back to a manufacturer's press kit. We got tired of it, so we started writing our own comparison guides. Every claim links to a source you can check yourself: Bharat NCAP crash-test data, official specs, government subsidy documents. Most articles cite 10+ sources. We don't take money from manufacturers.
The 5-star Bharat NCAP safety guide is a good place to start, or see the electric SUV comparison under ₹25 lakhs if range matters more to you. Wondering about ongoing costs? The maintenance cost comparison covers 10-year service data across seven models. Our charging infrastructure guide maps which SUVs are practical for India's 27,000+ public chargers — broken down by city tier and highway corridor. Need to know who fixes your EV when something breaks? The after-sales service comparison covers warranty resolution, service network reach, and real owner experiences. Considering Battery as a Service? We break down when renting the battery saves money and when it doesn't. All guides cover 2026 models.
Methodology
We use the same research process for every buying guide on EV Index India. Before a guide goes live, it has to clear the checks below.
- Check the important numbers. Prices, specifications, performance figures, and safety ratings link back to their sources. We look for an official document and a trustworthy independent source before publishing.
- Separate claims from real-world results. When an official figure differs from independent testing, we show both and name the sources. For buying decisions, we give more weight to independently verified results.
- Be honest about weaknesses. Every model has drawbacks, and our reviews say what they are. A useful buying guide should help you rule cars out, not just give you reasons to buy them.
- Keep rankings independent. Manufacturers cannot buy a place in our lists. We do not use dealer-portal affiliate links or sell the top position.
- Recheck changing details. Every article carries a Last verified date. We revisit prices, variants, and feature lists when a manufacturer updates a model.
Editorial principles
- Give readers the useful answer early.
- Put citations beside the claims they support.
- Say when the evidence is limited or a figure is only an estimate.
- Write plainly, without padding or sales language.
- Use comparison tables where they make a choice easier to scan.
