What happened
HDFC Bank launched a flexi electric car loan, which allows customers to set differential loan proportions for the vehicle body and the battery. The bank also stated that India is expected to see exponential growth in EV adoption, supported by government incentives and technological improvements.
Why it matters
The bank noted that the high cost of batteries makes EV acquisition more expensive than Internal Combustion Engine vehicles. The new loan structure aims to make EV ownership more cost-effective and accessible by making the battery EMI comparable to the running cost of an ICE vehicle.
