Delhi Government’s EV Policy 2.0 to Halt ICE Two Wheeler Registrations From Aug 15, 2026

Delhi Government’s draft EV Policy 2.0 might halt ICE Two Wheeler Registrations From Aug 15, 2026. The draft also has taken an aggressive target to achieve 95% of new EV vehicle registration by 2027.

If Delhi Government EV policy draft gets approved, then one will not be able to register petrol or diesel powered two wheelers from Aug 15, 2026. For CNG autos, the government has also proposed to stop issuing new registration for CNG-run autorickshaws starting Aug 15, 2025. The sword also hovers the CNG-powered Bajaj Freedom, which made its debut last year.

With the draft sent to the cabinet for approval, now the spotlight is on the infrastructural requirement for electric two wheelers. There will be speedy requirement for increasing charging network and improving service experience. Speaking on the policy to PTI, Delhi Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa said there will be a widespread public charging station along with battery swapping and recycling facilities. The Government main focus is to increase the footprint of the EV charging network and the eco-system.
