India’s electric vehicle market is gearing up for a major transformation in 2025, with several global automakers preparing to launch high-end EVs tailored for the country’s growing base of affluent, eco-conscious buyers. From performance-oriented roadsters to executive limousines and luxury SUVs, here are five premium electric models expected to hit Indian roads this year.
1. MG Cyberster
Expected Launch: June 2025
Estimated Price: ₹80 Lakhs
MG is bringing its most powerful vehicle yet to India — the Cyberster, a high-performance electric roadster that accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.2 seconds. Developed with input from Formula 1 engineer Marco Fainello, the Cyberster blends MG’s British heritage with futuristic styling, featuring electric scissor doors and a convertible soft-top.
Designed for thrill-seekers and style enthusiasts, the Cyberster aims to redefine modern electric sports cars with its bold design and dynamic performance.
2. MG M9: Electric Luxury for the Executive Class
Expected Launch: Q2 2025
Estimated Price: ₹70 Lakhs
The MG M9 is an ultra-luxurious electric limousine designed for professionals who expect comfort both on the road and in the boardroom. With the largest cabin in its class, the M9 offers features such as reclining ottomans, eight massage modes, touchscreen controls, and a tri-zone climate system.
Its exterior design reflects quiet sophistication, while the interiors focus on plush comfort, making it ideal for discerning buyers looking for a smooth and elegant electric driving experience.
3. Lamborghini Temerario: The Plug-In Supercar Revolution
Expected Launch: April 2025
Estimated Price: ₹3.5 Crore+
The Temerario will be Lamborghini’s first plug-in hybrid supercar coupe, marking a new era for the Italian marque. Meant to replace the iconic Huracán, the Temerario is expected to feature a new V8 plug-in hybrid setup, delivering an electrifying mix of power and precision.
Taking design cues from the Revuelto and Sesto Elemento, it will carry Lamborghini’s signature aggressive styling with modern elements such as Y-shaped daytime running lights and an aerodynamic profile. The Temerario plays a key role in Lamborghini’s goal to electrify its entire lineup by 2030 under the “Direzione Cor Tauri” strategy.
4. Lexus RZ 2025: Quiet Luxury, Reimagined
Expected Launch: Late 2025
Estimated Price: ₹1 Crore+
Lexus continues its electric journey with the 2025 RZ, an all-electric luxury SUV that balances performance with serene design. With a WLTP-certified range of around 440 km, it is equipped with a Direct4 all-wheel-drive system, a steer-by-wire yoke, and an adaptive panoramic roof.
The minimalist interior follows Lexus’ “Tazuna” concept, where controls are placed intuitively for the driver, reducing distractions while enhancing comfort. Sustainable materials and advanced features make the RZ a strong contender in the premium EV segment.
5. Range Rover’s First All-Electric SUV
Expected Launch: 2025
Estimated Price: ₹3 Crore
Land Rover is preparing to launch its first fully electric Range Rover in 2025, marking a major milestone in the brand’s transition toward sustainable luxury. This new model promises to combine the traditional strengths of the Range Rover — refinement, capability, and presence — with advanced electric technology. The electric SUV has undergone rigorous global testing, including trials in extreme environments ranging from -40°C Arctic snow to +50°C desert heat. These tests underscore its ability to perform across diverse terrains, maintaining the brand’s reputation for off-road excellence.
For the first time, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) will produce the battery and Electric Drive Unit (EDU) in-house. This move is expected to enhance system integration, efficiency, and overall driving performance. While the electric Range Rover will retain its iconic design language, it will feature a cleaner, more minimalist look that aligns with its modern, electrified identity. Inside, the cabin will continue to reflect the Range Rover’s trademark luxury, comfort, and craftsmanship.
JLR also claims this will be the quietest and most refined Range Rover ever built — an impressive feat given the already high standards of the brand. Despite the shift to electric, its legendary all-terrain capabilities will remain intact, ensuring it performs just as well off the beaten path as it does on the road.
Conclusion
2025 is shaping up to be a landmark year for India’s luxury EV market, with established players and performance brands rolling out cutting-edge vehicles across segments. Whether you’re looking for style, space, speed, or sustainability — this upcoming EV lineup promises something for every kind of high-end buyer.
