The Indian electric car market has witnessed significant growth in recent months, with sales numbers reflecting a shift toward electric mobility. Traditionally, Tata Motors has led the EV segment in India, consistently topping the sales charts each month.

However, October 2024 marked a surprising change, as the MG Windsor EV dethroned Tata’s electric offerings to become India’s Top-selling electric car.

In that month alone, JSW MG Motor India sold an impressive 3,116 units of Windsor EV, capturing around 30% of the country’s total passenger EV sales.

In October 2024, JSW MG Motor India achieved a milestone in sales, with a 31% increase compared to the previous year.

The company recorded its highest-ever monthly sales, totaling 7,045 units, bolstered primarily by its New Energy Vehicle (NEV) lineup.

This category, which includes the Windsor EV, accounted for 70% of MG’s total sales, underscoring the growing consumer interest in sustainable and eco-friendly mobility solutions offered by the company.
