Top five Hybrid/Electrified Cars in India

Highlights

The Indian car space has come a long way in the past few years in terms of technology. While we as a market still haven’t entirely accepted electrified and hybrid cars, the mindset of buyers is leisurely yet steadily switching. There is a growing acceptance for hybrid cars but, when it comes to alternate fuels, we have relied more on LPG and CNG instead of electrified energy. But that hasn’t dampened the car manufacturers’ hopes in India. In fact, the Government of India also thinks that electrified vehicles are the future and recently exposed its aim to have an all-electric car fleet in the country by 2030. While this is fairly ambitious, for now, we have been eyeing more and more carmaker injecting the hybrid and electrical car space and here is a list of the top hybrid and electrical cars available in India.

Mahindra is the very first and only manufacturer in India selling electrified four-wheelers. While the journey was commenced with the two-door Mahindra e2o (previously know as Reva e2o) the company has now substituted with a slightly fatter four-door Mahindra e2oPlus electrical hatchback which was launched in India in October 2016.

The Mahindra e2oPlus comes with a fresh powertrain powered by a 72V lithium-ion battery that has increases the driving range to 140km. The powertrain makes about forty bhp and ninety one Nm of peak torque has a top speed of eighty five kmph. A utter charge for the e2oPlus takes about nine hours but Mahindra also has QuickCharge that helps charge the car in just about an hour.

The e2oPlus also gets an SOS feature called revive which is being carried over from the e2o that gives you an extra range of 7-10 km if your battery power dips below ten per cent. This can be activated by a touch of a button or by using the e2oPlus app on your smartphone. The mobile app also hosts other features like switching on/off the car’s air conditioning and even locking/unlocking the car.

Price: Rs. Five.46 lakh – Rs. 8.46 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi)

Two. Mahindra eVerito

The 2nd electrified passenger car from Mahindra Electrical is the eVerito. Built on the Mahindra Verito sedan, the eVerito is powered by the same electrical motor as the e2oPlus that comes with a 72V battery pack. In fact, the power and torque are also the same at forty bhp and ninety one Nm respectively. Having said that, the range on the eVerito is limited to one hundred ten km on a total charge.

The EV uses a lithium-ion battery that takes one hour and forty five minutes to be fully charged through prompt charging technology and will take over eight hours on regular mode. The eVerito’s top speed is rated at eighty six km/h. Mahindra says that the running cost on the EV comes down to Rs. 1.15 per km.

In terms of design, the electrified Mahindra e-Verito sedan retains its diesel sibling’s silhouette. However, it does get a handful of stickers and a revised interior to help differentiate it from the standard Verito model. Mahindra is suggesting the eVerito in three trim options, namely, D2, D4, and D6. Mahindra Electrified is working on a fresh long-range electrified powertrain as well.

Price: Rs. 9.50 lakh – Rs. Ten lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi)

Three. Toyota Camry Hybrid

Among hybrid cars, the top player in India is clearly the Toyota Camry. The car comes in both petrol and hybrid models and it is the latter the has accounted for seventy per cent of the car’s sales in India. The Camry hybrid is not a plug-in hybrid but has been the bread winner for Toyota in this segment. It is powered by the company’s DOHC VVT-i Two.5-litre petrol unit paired to an electrical motor. The output tally of the hybrid system stands at 202bhp; 158bhp from the petrol motor, and 44bhp from the electrical motor.

Toyota Camry Hybrid

The engine comes mated to the e-CVT (electronically continuously variable transmission) and the car comes wit three driving modes to choose from – EV, Eco and Normal. Toyota claims that the Camry Hybrid produces Nineteen.6Km/l (ARAI figure), which is truly amazing for a car of this size.

Four. Honda Accord Hybrid

The Japanese carmaker brought back the Accord nameplate to India with the launch of the two thousand sixteen Honda Accord Hybrid. Unlike the Toyota Camry, the Accord only comes in a hybrid version and in is sold in India as a entirely built unit (CBU). Globally, the Accord is in its ninth generation and in terms of styling and design, it looks a lot more premium than its predecessors.

Powering the Honda Accord Hybrid is a Two.0-litre, 4-cylinder petrol engine mated to an electrified motor powered by a 1.Three Kilowatt/h lithium-ion battery pack. While the petrol engine churns out a maximum of one hundred forty five bhp and one hundred seventy five Nm of peak torque, the electrified motor puts out one hundred eighty four bhp and a peak torque of three hundred fifteen Nm. The Honda Accord hybrid’s combined power output is rated at 212bhp. It comes mated to a CVT gearbox.

Incidentally, the car is over Rs, six lakh more expensive than its closest competitor – the Toyota Camry Hybrid.

Five. Volvo XC90 T8 Plug-In Hybrid

Volvo recently launched the Plug-In Hybrid version of the XC90 in India and well, it was the very first SUV of its kind to hit the Indian shores. We got a chance to drive it exclusively and we couldn’t help but see how luxurious it truly is.

Volvo XC90 T8 Plug-In Hybrid

Built on the company’s modular Scalable Product Architecture (SPA), the Volvo XC90 Excellence’s name, and the price for that matter, bespeaks of the affluence on suggest and then some. Among the myriad of extravagant features on suggest, one of the most distinguished are the individual electronically-adjustable reclinable rear seats with rubdown & ventilation functions, and added legroom with footrests. These provisions are complemented by ambient lighting, illuminated storage, a retractable control touchscreen, folding tables, a refrigerator with bottle and glass holders, a heated/chilled cup holder, and handmade crystal glasses from leading Swedish company, Orrefors.

The AWD Volvo XC90 Excellence derives power from the company’s T8 Twin-Engine Plug-in Hybrid Electrified powertrain (Two.0-litre supercharged and turbocharged petrol engine + 9.2kWh Lithium-ion battery). Mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission, the SUV offers a combined power output of almost 402bhp and develops a maximum torque of 640Nm.

There is a growing acceptance for hybrid cars but, when it comes to alternate fuels, we have relied more on LPG and CNG instead of electrified energy. But that hasn’t dampened the car manufacturers’ hopes in India. In fact, the Government of India also thinks that electrified vehicles are the future and recently exposed its aim to have an all-electric car fleet in the country by 2030. While this is fairly ambitious, for now, we have been eyeing more and more carmaker injecting the hybrid and electrified car space and here is a list of the top hybrid and electrical cars available in India.

Mahindra is the very first and only manufacturer in India selling electrical four-wheelers. While the journey was embarked with the two-door Mahindra e2o (previously know as Reva e2o) the company has now substituted with a slightly fatter four-door Mahindra e2oPlus electrified hatchback which was launched in India in October 2016.

Price: Rs. Five.46 lakh – Rs. 8.46 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi)

Two. Mahindra eVerito

In terms of design, the electrified Mahindra e-Verito sedan retains its diesel sibling’s silhouette. However, it does get a handful of stickers and a revised interior to help differentiate it from the standard Verito model. Mahindra is suggesting the eVerito in three trim options, namely, D2, D4, and D6. Mahindra Electrical is working on a fresh long-range electrical powertrain as well.

Price: Rs. 9.50 lakh – Rs. Ten lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi)

Trio. Toyota Camry Hybrid

Among hybrid cars, the top player in India is clearly the Toyota Camry. The car comes in both petrol and hybrid models and it is the latter the has accounted for seventy per cent of the car’s sales in India. The Camry hybrid is not a plug-in hybrid but has been the bread winner for Toyota in this segment. It is powered by the company’s DOHC VVT-i Two.5-litre petrol unit paired to an electrified motor. The output tally of the hybrid system stands at 202bhp; 158bhp from the petrol motor, and 44bhp from the electrical motor.

Toyota Camry Hybrid

The engine comes mated to the e-CVT (electronically continuously variable transmission) and the car comes wit three driving modes to choose from – EV, Eco and Normal. Toyota claims that the Camry Hybrid supplies Nineteen.6Km/l (ARAI figure), which is truly epic for a car of this size.

Four. Honda Accord Hybrid

The Japanese carmaker brought back the Accord nameplate to India with the launch of the two thousand sixteen Honda Accord Hybrid. Unlike the Toyota Camry, the Accord only comes in a hybrid version and in is sold in India as a fully built unit (CBU). Globally, the Accord is in its ninth generation and in terms of styling and design, it looks a lot more premium than its predecessors.

Incidentally, the car is over Rs, six lakh more expensive than its closest competitor – the Toyota Camry Hybrid.
