Can a Hybrid Vehicle Have a Green Number Plate?

In December 2020, India introduced the green number plate for all new and existing electric vehicles. It distinguishes these eco-friendly vehicles from other conventional ones. Many doubt whether a green number plate on a hybrid car is allowed. Let’s seek clarity regarding this.

Can a Hybrid Car Have a Green Number Plate?

1. Green number plates are strictly for fully electric cars.
2. Green number plates for hybrid cars are not allowed since these vehicles use electric power and energy from conventional fuels.
3. Hybrid cars do not have zero emissions. So, they are not qualified for the green number plates.
4. Green number plates are only for eco-friendly vehicles, and hybrid cars do not fall into that category.

Conclusion

Hybrid cars are vehicles that run on both fuel and electricity, and such cars do not require any green number plates. However, it is important to get a car insurance policy that offers comprehensive coverage.
