Good news for electric vehicle buyers: upcoming electric vehicle launches from Tata Altroz ​​EV to Citroen C3


Indian car manufacturers introduce new battery-powered vehicles every year. However, India still lags far behind in terms of electric vehicle infrastructure. However, people are slowly and steadily starting to accept electric vehicles as replacements for ICE cars. While the mass adoption of electric vehicles will take a long time, we can expect this segment to grow at a considerable pace in the years to come, largely due to the lower running costs offered by electric vehicles.
In this article, we list the top 5 upcoming electric vehicles that will be launched in India.
1. Tata Altroz ​​EV
Tata unveiled the all-electric variant of the Altroz ​​premium sedan at the Geneva Motor Show in 2019. The Tata Altroz ​​EV is based on the same electrification-compatible ALFA platform. The premium electric sedan is expected to be launched at Auto expo 2023.

The Tata Altroz ​​EV is expected to borrow many features from the already launched Nexon EV such as the same electric powertrain, PDU (power distribution unit) and battery pack. The car should be equipped with connected car technology which allows you to access car stats such as remaining battery and charging history and even locate the nearest charging stations for you.
The Tata Altroz ​​EV is expected to be priced around Rs 12-15 lakh in India.
2. Citroen C3 EV
The Citroen C3 EV was recently spied in tests on Indian roads.
The front bumper of the spied car has been camouflaged and appears to cover the charging port.
The EV will be based on the ICE C3 as the side profile and design elements will be the same as the ICE counterpart. However, we expect Citroen to make some noticeable cosmetic changes to differentiate itself from the regular model.
Speaking of the powertrain and battery, it should be offered with multiple battery options, one of which is the global specification 50 kWh battery pack with a WLTP claimed range of over 350km, featured in the Peugeot e-208 which is based on the same platform. The EV is expected to be powered by an electric motor that produces 136PS and 260Nm of torque. There is a possibility that the EV may also have a smaller battery pack with a range of around 300km.
The existing ICE C3 lacks basic features like cruise control, rear wipers, rear demisting, manual adjustment for ORVMs, and many more. The electric Citroen C3 is expected to be equipped with more features than its petrol counterpart.
The all-electric launch is expected to be launched in India by April 2023 with an expected starting price between Rs 10 lakh and Rs 14 lakh (former showroom).
Once launched, the EV will compete with Tata Tiago EV and Tigor EV.
