Role of EVs in India’s Sustainable Mobility Journey

Over the last 2 years, the sale of electric vehicles has picked up pace in India, with this year’s sale already surpassing that of last year’s by over 80%. As we observe the World EV day to create awareness about EVs and green mobility, several automobile companies have unveiled their plans of launching more EVs in the Indian auto market. EVs are gaining traction globally as an efficient means to decarbonise transportation and reduce fuel dependency.

EV fleets (e-auto rickshaws or e-bikes) powered by renewable energy sources coupled with reliable and convenient public transport services (metro or e-buses) are the way forward for Indian cities.
