New EV Launches in India: Upcoming MG, Tata, and Mahindra Electric Cars

The Indian EV market is preparing for a massive expansion between late 2026 and 2027, driven by MG, Tata, and Mahindra. Tata is leading the charge with the 3-row Safari EV launching around Diwali 2026, followed by the premium Avinya series in 2027. Mahindra will expand its "Born Electric" lineup with the BE 07 in mid-2027, built to rival the Tata Harrier EV. Meanwhile, MG is launching the Hector Hawk EV (expected to be named Tomahawk) by late August 2026, marking a new era of family-sized electric SUVs. Buyers can expect larger battery packs, ranges exceeding 500 km, and prices starting around ₹22 lakh.

The Next Phase of Indian EVs

If you bought an EV a few years ago, you likely had to settle for a compact car or a sub-four-meter SUV. That is about to change.

The upcoming wave of electric vehicles from Tata, Mahindra, and MG focuses heavily on family-sized, 3-row SUVs and premium segments. Automakers are finally addressing the biggest consumer demands: more space, ultra-fast charging, and real-world highway ranges that exceed 500 km.

Let’s break down exactly what each brand is bringing to the showroom floor.
