Auto Sector Review: How Policy Shifts, Emission Rules & EV Push Will Reshape India’s Pre-owned Car Market In 2026

Abstract Abstract
As the electric vehicle (EV) market continues to expand, the importance of the used EV market has grown significantly, particularly in the context of environmental sustainability and green transportation. This study employs data-driven methods to develop a comprehensive understanding of consumer preferences for pre-owned EVs. The findings indicate that full-time employed, highly educated, and higher-income individuals—especially those living in detached houses or townhouses with access to personal parking facilities—are more likely to purchase pre-owned EVs.
Using a latent class choice model, the study examines the influence of latent psychological factors and vehicle attributes across two distinct user segments: Experienced EV Drivers and New EV Drivers. The results show that New EV Drivers demonstrate a preference for sedans and home charging facilities when considering pre-owned EVs. However, individuals who express concerns about charging infrastructure and vehicle pricing, as well as those with a positive attitude toward automated vehicles, exhibit lower willingness to purchase pre-owned EVs.
Overall, the study offers targeted, population-specific policy insights aimed at encouraging the adoption and sustainable use of electric vehicles, thereby supporting broader environmental and transportation sustainability goals
