Hyundai India to Launch Hybrid, Plans 26 Models by 2030

20 May 2025 CW Team

Hyundai Motor India Limited will introduce a hybrid vehicle as part of a larger plan to launch twenty-six models by 2030. The move aligns Hyundai with Toyota and Suzuki, who advocate hybrids to address India’s limited charging network and price-sensitive market.

The refreshed portfolio will include six battery-electric vehicles, twenty internal combustion engine models, and one hybrid. These will span both mass and premium segments, including hybrid sport utility vehicles.

According to Chief Operating Officer Tarun Garg, no single technology can meet all market needs. He called the hybrid segment a clear opportunity for Hyundai in India’s evolving landscape.

Self-charging hybrid vehicles combine electric and fuel-powered engines to deliver higher fuel efficiency. Hyundai’s strategy reflects a recalibrated approach in a market where electric vehicle adoption remains low.

In the year ending March 2025, electric vehicles accounted for just one per cent of Hyundai’s total sales in India. As government policies and consumer preferences continue to shift, Hyundai’s diversified product strategy aims to navigate the complex transition to greener mobility.
