Then, the passenger can enjoy seat massage and ventilation and two wireless chargers of 50W power each. The expected cost of the vehicle is approximately ₹ 1.25-1.35 crore. Numbers vary depending on the source.

Hyundai Ioniq P

The Hyundai Ioniq P is expected to be a sub-4-metre electric SUV, and the name has already been trademarked in India. Level 2 ADAS has been confirmed, and the car has been spotted with the Pleos Connect system. It is expected to share its underpinnings with the Kia Syros EV, which points to two battery options: a 42 kWh pack with about 135 bhp and a 51.4 kWh pack with about 170 bhp. It is also the only car on this list likely to use an NMC battery, and with an estimated price of Rs 12-17.5 lakh, it is the most affordable option here.

Maruti YMC

The Maruti YMC is a seven-seat electric MPV that has been spotted on test. It has a boxy silhouette with a tailgate similar to the Victoris, and active air vents open and close to help manage battery cooling. It is likely to use the HEARTECT-E platform seen on the e Vitara, and given its size, a battery larger than 61 kWh is possible. The estimated price is around Rs 14-18 lakh, which would suit large families that want three rows at a mainstream price.

JSW Jaecoo J5

The JSW Jaecoo J5 is a Chery product and could be one of three vehicles JSW Motors brings as part of its initial new-energy line-up. A front-wheel-drive motor produces 207 bhp and 288 Nm, paired with a 61 kWh battery and a claimed range of 407 km. It reaches 100 km/h in 7.3 seconds and supports 11 kW AC and 130 kW DC charging. The estimated price is around Rs 18-22 lakh. A strong hybrid has also been spotted in India and is expected to rival the Renault Duster hybrid, but it is separate from this EV list.

Why These Upcoming EVs in India Matter

This group of models stands out because it spreads across almost every part of the market. The estimated prices run from Rs 12 lakh to Rs 1.35 crore, which is more than a tenfold gap, and battery packs range from 42 kWh on the Ioniq P to 122.49 kWh on the Z9 GT. Body styles are just as varied, with an MPV, an estate, a compact SUV and a mid-size SUV all appearing within the same six-month window.

For buyers, the practical result is more choice outside the usual electric SUV formula. Families that need seven seats, shoppers who want a luxury MPV and enthusiasts who want a high-performance estate all have a model to wait for. The affordable end of the list, led by the Ioniq P and the Maruti YMC, also shows that electric options are moving toward mainstream budgets.

Battery chemistry also separates these models. LFP, or lithium iron phosphate, is expected to dominate and is known for durability and lower cost. The Ioniq P is the exception with an NMC pack, which typically offers higher energy density.

What to Check Before You Wait

  • Confirmed versus Expected: At the moment, only the release date of the Denza has been confirmed. Therefore, consider all other dates to be approximate.
  • Price estimates: We do not know the exact prices of the electric vehicles. In particular, we know that the final prices may vary, particularly in the case of imported premium models.
  • Charging Access: Check the home charging systems and the fast charging facilities available on your daily routes.
  • Claimed Range: Real-world range will be lower than the claimed figures.
  • Current Alternatives: Compare these models with EVs already on sale, since waiting can delay savings on running costs.

Conclusion

The upcoming electric vehicles in India range from the Hyundai Ioniq P, which has a price bracket of Rs 12 lakh to that of Denza Z9 GT priced at Rs 1.35 crore. From the time of writing, the launch of Denza is confirmed, and the rest of the dates and amounts mentioned here could only be treated as estimates for bookings until the official news comes in regarding the prices.
