Gujarat ranks 16th in the India Electric Mobility Index with only 1.36% of its vehicle fleet being electric despite strong government incentives and rising registrations. The state faces challenges in private EV uptake, limited e-rickshaw adoption, and gaps in strategic charging infrastructure.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Micromobility.

◆ The Wire takeaway

Gujarat's gap between government EV incentives and consumer uptake signals that you need to focus on private demand channels and strategic charging networks to win in India's EV market. The lag in e-rickshaw adoption is an immediate opportunity for you to introduce tailored EV solutions that tap into local mobility needs.
