Analysts from GlobalData, Just Auto’s parent company, will participate in the 6th India Automotive Powertrain Summit 2026, taking place on 11–12 June in Chennai, India. The event will bring together OEMs, suppliers, policymakers, technology providers and industry experts to discuss the future of mobility, powertrain innovation and sustainable transportation solutions. The summit agenda focuses on topics including BS-VII regulations, xEV development, biofuels, CAFE III and IV requirements, localisation strategies and the evolving automotive market landscape.
As one of the world's fastest-growing automotive markets, India is entering a new phase of transformation driven by changing consumer preferences, electrification, regulatory developments and technological innovation. While Battery Electric Vehicles continue to gain momentum, the market is increasingly evolving into a multi-powertrain ecosystem where ICE, CNG, hybrid, biofuel and electric technologies are expected to coexist.
At the conference, Vivek Sharma, Director – India Automotive, GlobalData, will present:
"India's Next Growth Engine: Market Demand and Powertrain Evolution"
He told Just Auto:"India's automotive future will not be defined by a single technology pathway. What makes India unique is the coexistence of multiple powertrain solutions driven by diverse consumer needs, infrastructure realities and policy objectives. The next decade will be shaped by how effectively the industry balances growth, affordability, sustainability and localisation while navigating a rapidly evolving mobility landscape."
The summit provides an important platform for discussing the opportunities and challenges facing the industry as India continues its transition toward cleaner and more efficient mobility solutions. With Chennai serving as one of India's most significant automotive and powertrain hubs, the event offers valuable insights into the technologies and strategies that will shape the market over the coming decade.
GlobalData’s automotive team will be available throughout the event for discussions with OEMs, suppliers and industry stakeholders. The conference provides an excellent opportunity to exchange views on emerging trends, market developments and the future direction of India's automotive industry.
We will also be available for one-to-one conversations on GlobalData's latest automotive forecasts, powertrain outlooks and strategic industry insights.
