December E 4 Wheeler Sales Report : Tata Dominates, VinFast Debuts Ahead of BMW & Kia
The electric passenger vehicle market in India witnessed a significant shake-up in December 2025. While market leader Tata Passenger Electric Mobility continued its dominance, the spotlight has shifted to the debut performance of Vietnamese automaker VinFast, which has managed to outsell established premium players like BMW and Kia in its initial run.
Here is a detailed breakdown of the 4-wheeler electric vehicle sales figures for December 2025.
Quick Takeaways
-
Tata Motors remains the undisputed king with 6,453 units.
-
JSW MG Motor holds the silver medal, keeping Mahindra at bay by nearly 500 units.
-
VinFast enters the chart with 375 units, overtaking BMW and Kia.
The VinFast Surprise: A New Contender Arrives
The biggest talking point of the December data is VinFast Auto India. Registering 375 units, the Vietnamese manufacturer has made a strong entry into the Indian market.
For a new entrant to immediately bypass established names like BMW (343 units) and Kia India (314 units) signals strong early acceptance. Industry watchers will be keen to see if VinFast can sustain this momentum against the heavily localized portfolios of Tata and MG.
The Battle for Number 2: MG vs. Mahindra
The rivalry between JSW MG Motor India and Mahindra Electric continues to be the fiercest battleground in the Indian EV space.
For December, JSW MG Motor secured the second spot with 3,557 units, driven likely by the sustained demand for the Windsor and Comet EV models. Mahindra Electric followed closely with 3,066 units. While the gap stands at roughly 500 units, Mahindra's aggressive expansion with the BE range suggests this hierarchy could change in the coming months.

Market Leader Analysis: Tata's Stronghold
With 6,453 units, Tata Passenger Electric Mobility continues to command the lion's share of the market. Despite rising competition from JSW MG and Mahindra, Tata’s diverse portfolio—ranging from the entry-level Tiago EV to the flagship Curvv EV—ensures they cater to every price bracket, maintaining a volume that is nearly double that of their closest competitor.
Premium Segment: BMW Edges Past Kia
In the luxury and premium tier, BMW India registered 343 units, maintaining a slight lead over Kia India (314 units). While these numbers are lower volume, they represent the high-value segment of the Indian EV ecosystem, showing consistent demand for luxury electric mobility.
