JSW MG Motor India has rolled out a major public awareness initiative, ‘EV Sahi Hai’, aimed at reshaping perceptions of electric vehicles (EVs) and accelerating adoption across the country. Combining authentic EV owner experiences, celebrity endorsements, and a dedicated knowledge platform, the campaign positions MG as a leader in India’s growing green mobility movement.
Phase 1: Real Stories from Real EV Owners
The first phase features 10 short digital films highlighting everyday EV users and their positive experiences. Key benefits showcased include lower running costs, smooth and quiet drives, a dependable charging ecosystem, and environmental advantages. The films will be promoted on YouTube, Instagram, TV, and other digital platforms, reinforcing the message “EV Sahi Hai”.
Phase 2: Bollywood Boost in August
To broaden its reach, MG will bring Bollywood actors Pulkit Samrat and Varun Sharma onboard in August. Their relatable and humorous storytelling aims to spark nationwide conversations about EVs, mirroring the successful “Mutual Fund Sahi Hai” campaign that made mutual funds mainstream.
EVSahiHai.com Launch on August 9
The campaign also marks the launch of EVSahiHai.com, a dedicated EV knowledge hub to address buyer queries, bust myths, and guide first-time owners. The platform will provide ownership benefits, range and charging FAQs, environmental impact calculators, and model comparisons.
MG’s EV Market Footprint
Holding a 35% share in India’s EV market, MG offers models like the premium MG ZS EV and the compact MG Comet. Together, they have covered over 1.46 billion km, preventing more than 233,704 metric tonnes of CO₂ emissions. Under the JSW Group–SAIC partnership, MG is investing in local manufacturing, technology, and consumer education.
Industry Context
India’s EV market is witnessing rapid growth, but range anxiety and misinformation remain barriers. MG’s blend of real-world credibility and entertainment-driven outreach aims to break these barriers, making EVs more mainstream during the crucial festive season sales window.
Industry analysts note that this campaign could become a blueprint for EV adoption strategies in India, especially as competitors grapple with supply chain challenges and raw material constraints.
