The brand had fallen to 6 per cent share in January 2026 before recovering to 8.8 per cent in May and 8.3 per cent in June. Greaves Electric’s Ampere brand crossed 10,000 unit sales in June – placing it sixth among the leading electric two-wheeler names. River Mobility and BGauss also posted healthy numbers while the rest of the market remained spread across smaller EV manufacturers.

TVS, Bajaj and Ather are indeed the main volume pillars of the zero-emission two-wheeler market as we have seen in recent memory but Vida’s growth has changed the middle order. Ola still has scale but its share is far lower than the same month last year. The next few months will show whether Ampere, River and BGauss can keep increasing volumes as the segment moves into the festivities.

New Hyundai Elantra Debuts With Fresh Design, New Tech

Hyundai has unveiled the eighth-generation Elantra, sold as the Avante in its home market, at the 2026 Busan Auto Show. Arriving a little over six years after the launch of the outgoing CN7-generation model, the latest sedan receives a comprehensive redesign, a larger footprint, updated technology and an improved hybrid powertrain.

The new Elantra adopts Hyundai’s latest ‘Art of Steel’ design philosophy, giving the sedan a noticeably more angular appearance than before. Compared to its predecessor, it is 55 mm longer, 30 mm wider and features a wheelbase extended by 30 mm, measuring 4765 mm in length, 1855 mm in width, 1425 mm in height and 2750 mm between the axles.

At the front, the sedan gets a split-headlamp arrangement with T-shaped daytime running lights positioned above the main LED headlamp units. The front bumper features multiple blacked-out elements along with slim upper air intakes and a larger lower opening.

From the side, pronounced character lines, flared wheel arches, newly designed 18-inch dual-tone alloy wheels and flush-style door handles contribute to a more aggressive profile. Hyundai has also introduced an additional rear quarter glass to visually reduce the thickness of the rear pillars.

The rear section has been completely redesigned with T-shaped LED tail lamps, an integrated lip spoiler, a prominent Hyundai wordmark and a sporty bumper finished with diffuser-inspired detailing.

The interior has been significantly updated with Hyundai’s latest Pleos Connect interface. The dashboard is dominated by a 14.6-inch infotainment touchscreen paired with a slim digital instrument display. The passenger-side grab handle seen on the previous model has been removed, giving the cabin a cleaner layout.

Hyundai has retained physical controls for frequently used functions, including climate settings and media controls, alongside a new flat-bottom steering wheel featuring the brand’s four-dot motif. Other additions include ambient lighting, dual wireless charging pads and multiple storage compartments.

The eighth-generation Elantra comes equipped with a Bang & Olufsen audio system, built-in dashcam, over-the-air software updates, Digital Key functionality, 100W USB charging ports, powered front seats with memory function, dual-zone climate control, electronic parking brake with auto hold, 360-degree camera, automatic parking assist and an Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) package.

Hyundai has also introduced two new safety technologies. Navigation-based Smart Cruise Control 2 can automatically adjust the vehicle’s speed in situations such as speed-restricted zones and intersections, while Pedal Misuse Safety Assist is designed to intervene if the driver accidentally presses the accelerator instead of the brake.

Powertrain options remain familiar. The naturally aspirated 2.0-litre petrol engine continues to produce 149 HP and is paired with a CVT automatic transmission.

The 1.6-litre hybrid, however, has been upgraded to produce 157 HP, representing an increase of 16 HP over the previous version. Hyundai says the hybrid also benefits from an improved transmission, electric motor and battery.

Additional efficiency-focused technologies include a smart regenerative braking system that adjusts regeneration levels based on navigation and traffic conditions, along with a predictive hybrid control system that manages battery usage according to the planned route.

The hybrid model also gains a new Stay Mode, allowing occupants to operate features such as climate control and infotainment for a limited period without the petrol engine running.

While Hyundai has retained the Elantra’s existing powertrain lineup, the latest generation focuses on design, technology and efficiency improvements, positioning it as a more feature-rich successor to the outgoing model.

Delhi EV Policy 2026 – Incentives Up To Rs. 1 lakh, ICE 2W Ban & More

GaadiWaadi -

Delhi EV Policy 2026 proposes purchase incentives of up to Rs. 1 lakh, complete tax exemption, charging expansion and a phased shift away from petrol, diesel and CNG vehicles

Delhi has outlined one of India’s aggressive electric mobility plans through its new EV Policy 2026. The proposal aims for electric vehicles to account for 95 per cent of all new registrations as early as next year and also lays down timelines that would gradually end new registrations of several internal combustion engine vehicle categories over the next two years.

Among the biggest regulatory changes is the proposal to discontinue new CNG auto rickshaw registrations from January 2027. Existing diesel and CNG auto permits will also be phased out in stages. The policy goes a step further from April 2028 by proposing that new registrations of petrol, diesel and CNG-powered two-wheelers should stop altogether – leaving electric models as the only option for new registrations in the segment.

Financial incentives continue to play a key part in the proposal. Zero-emission cars will qualify for an incentive of Rs. 10,000 per kWh – subject to a maximum benefit of Rs. 1 lakh. Electric two-wheelers, on the other hand, will receive Rs. 5,000 per kWh up to Rs. 30,000 while electric three-wheelers will be eligible for Rs. 10,000 per kWh with a ceiling of Rs. 45,000.

Vehicle owners replacing older internal combustion engine models with electric vehicles have also been included in the proposal. The scrappage package offers incentives reaching Rs. 1 lakh based on the vehicle category – reducing the overall purchase cost for eligible customers switching to electric cars and it could prove to be attractive for many.

Apart from purchase incentives, the Delhi government has proposed a complete waiver of road tax and registration charges for electric vehicles. Removing both charges substantially lowers the on-road price and adds another financial benefit over conventional petrol, diesel and CNG-powered vehicles as part of promoting the use of EVs to bring down alarming pollution levels.

Delhi intends to expand its public charging network as well and develop additional fast charging corridors and battery-swapping stations to stimulate buyers while encouraging charging facilities across residential and commercial developments to accommodate the expected rise in electric vehicle numbers to form an entire ecosystem.

Government departments and public agencies will progressively induct electric vehicles into their fleets while battery collection, recycling and end-of-life management have also been incorporated to address the entire ownership cycle instead of vehicle sales alone. Delhi estimates the policy could attract investments of around Rs. 15,000 crore across the electric mobility ecosystem.

Charging infrastructure, vehicle manufacturing, battery services, recycling facilities and associated industries are all expected to benefit if the proposal moves ahead as planned. If implemented in its current form, the Delhi EV Policy 2026 could reshape one of India’s largest automotive markets over the next few years.

Mahindra Vision SXT Design Patented – Baby Scorpio N Based Off-Road SUV?

GaadiWaadi -

Mahindra Vision SXT was one of the four concepts showcased in August 2025 alongside the modular NU_IQ monocoque platform

The Vision S has been undergoing road tests for several months and now, the design patent images have surfaced online for the Vision SXT – raising the possibility that Mahindra could be preparing a second model on the same platform giving more importance to off-road character. The possibility remains speculative for now as the company has not confirmed production plans and design patents often never progress beyond the filing stage.

The patent drawings retain almost every signature element seen on the Vision SXT concept. Up front sits an upright fascia with a rectangular grille carrying multiple vertical inserts, sleek headlamp units positioned high on the corners and vertically stacked lighting elements below them. The front bumper is heavily sculpted and incorporates a sizeable skid plate while the flat bonnet and short front overhang suggest an SUV designed with off-road geometry in mind.

Its profile is equally distinctive as the Vision SXT features squared wheel arches housing large all-terrain tyres, a near-flat roofline, upright pillars and generous ground clearance. Thick tubular protection bars run along the lower portion of the body doubling as rock sliders and visual highlights. The patent also shows production-spec door mirrors, pull-type door handles, integrated roof rails and sturdy side steps.

The concept displayed two externally mounted spare wheels but the patent replaces them with a single rear-mounted spare tyre. The tailgate, rear bumper and lighting have also been simplified compared to the show piece. If Mahindra eventually decides to build the Vision SXT, it could sit just above the Vision S – potentially making way for another off-roader.

The Vision S may serve as the mainstream SUV from the NU_IQ family while the Vision SXT could target enthusiasts looking for a more purpose-built off-road machine. Both concepts were introduced during Mahindra’s Freedom_NU showcase where the company revealed the Vision S, Vision T, Vision X and Vision SXT. All four are based on the modular NU_IQ architecture.

It has been developed to accommodate petrol, diesel and electric powertrains, multiple wheelbase options, front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive and all-wheel-drive configurations. The flexible platform has also been developed for both domestic and international markets. As for Vision SXT, four-wheel drive would appear to be a natural fit given the vehicle’s proportions, body protection and off-road styling cues shown in both the concept and the patent.

Should Mahindra eventually approve the Vision SXT for production, it could add another dedicated off-roader to its expanding SUV portfolio. Coupled with the Vision S that is already deep into road testing, the patent hints that Mahindra may be preparing two distinctly different SUVs from the same NU_IQ family.

Jaguar Land Rover Recalls More Than 2.5 Lakh SUVs

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has announced a recall affecting over 250,000 vehicles in the United States following the identification of a potential issue related to the driver’s airbag system. The recall has been issued in coordination with the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

According to the safety regulator, the campaign covers select Land Rover Defender, Discovery and Range Rover models sold in the American market. The issue involves the driver’s airbag clockspring connector, which may be susceptible to corrosion over time.

If corrosion develops within the connector, it could interfere with the electrical connection required for proper airbag deployment during a collision. As a result, the driver’s airbag may not function as intended in certain crash scenarios, potentially increasing the risk of injury.

To address the concern, Jaguar Land Rover dealers will inspect the affected vehicles and apply a protective lubricant gel to the connector terminals. The repair will be carried out at no cost to customers.

Vehicle recalls are a common part of the automotive industry’s safety and quality assurance process, allowing manufacturers to address potential defects before they result in larger issues. Owners of affected vehicles are expected to be notified through the standard recall process and advised on the next steps for inspection and repair.
