The best of futuristic vehicles displayed at the Auto Expo.

The New Delhi Auto Expo 2018 showcased electric and other futuristic vehicles of all shapes and sizes. From the TVS Creon concept which, for the first time, signalled a concerted push into the segment by an established twowheeler manufacturer to the Maruti E-survivor concept that is expected to form the basis of the market leader’s foray into this area, or the Hyundai Kona SUV, tucked in a corner at the Korean carmaker’s stall with which it wants to draw first blood, or Tata’s and JBM’s fullyelectric buses, there was no lack of imagination. The industry is still in its infancy and with the government making a complete u-turn on the long-in-the-offing comprehensive EV policy, it is even more difficult to say how much longer it will take for the all-electric dream to become reality. But the models at the Expo gave us a glimpse into the future. Here’s a peek into the ones that stood out.
