Abstract

<p>This study examines the adoption of hybrid and electric vehicles in Uttar Pradesh from 2015&ndash;16 to 2024&ndash;25, using official registration data. We used secondary data from the VAHAN portal and applied methods like compound annual growth rate (CAGR), market share analysis, structural transition ratios, and cumulative growth indices. Electric vehicles have grown quickly, especially among three-wheelers and two-wheelers, while hybrid vehicles are mostly in the light motor vehicle category. The structural transition ratio shows a clear shift toward electric vehicles after 2021. In Uttar Pradesh, electrification is mainly for commercial use, with three-wheelers leading and two-wheelers growing strongly in recent years.</p>
