Most Affordable EVs In India:  The Indian electric car market has grown rapidly in recent years. Initially, EVs cost more than Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) cars, and affordability was an issue. Due to the high cost of lithium-ion batteries, the EVs were expensive. However, things took a turn for the better in the Indian market when MG introduced its Comet EV in 2023. The brand introduced the Comet EV with prices starting from Rs 7.98 lakh (ex-showroom). A year later, the brand introduced the Battery as a Service (BaaS) variant of the MG Comet EV for Rs 4.99 lakh (ex-showroom). The Comet EV has remained the most affordable EV in the country ever since. Let’s take a look at the top 5 most affordable electric cars in the Indian market, as of 2026.
