The electric car market is at a nascent stage in India with only a handful of pocket-friendly options, like the Tata Tiago.ev, Tata Tigor.ev, Tata Punch.ev, Tata Nexon.ev, Mahindra XUV400, Citroen E-C3 and MG ZS EV. All these models are available at a starting price of less than Rs 20 lakh (ex-showroom). However, the most affordable electric car in India is the MG Comet EV.
