Driving and maintaining your electric vehicle is a breeze. With no gears, spark plugs and fuel tanks, electric vehicles truly redefine convenience. What's more? electric vehicles are as simple to charge as your mobile phone. You can plug-in at café while sipping coffee, at office during work or at home while you sleep.
Are thoughts of fire-risks from flammable batteries doing rounds in your mind? Breathe a sigh of relief. The frequency and severity of fires from electric vehicles are comparable or slightly lesser than conventional vehicles. Only about 0.006% of electric vehicles have caught fire compared to 0.07% of internal combustion engine vehicles as per 2018 data of NFPA, U.S. Besides, more scientific research to discover lesser flammable materials is already underway.
A fully charged pure electric vehicle is all that you need for your household's typical daily uses. Why? Unlike conventional vehicles, electric vehicles can be recharged on a top-up basis. Moreover, most electric vehicles can go up to 60 to 110 km on a single charge, which is well beyond the average distance travelled by commuters per day.
Diversity and inclusion are fundamental to electric vehicle revolution. E-mobility strives for a welcoming and equitable environment by supporting the presence, ideas and contribution of a diverse set of people. Women constitute an increasing proportion of the value chain.
Electric vehicles are more affordable to buy, own and operate than ever before. Electric two-wheelers and electric three-wheelers are already cost-competitive. Electric four-wheelers are economically viable for commercial fleet operations. A typical fleet car travels about 190 km per day, while the breakeven distance for an average electric sedan is just 164 km per day. Besides the already rock-bottom running costs, the upfront costs are set to decline a lot more with falling battery prices in the future.
You won't have to wait too long to charge your electric vehicles. Electric vehicle charging has sped up by 5 times since the previous few years. Fast charging is on its way to become mainstream. What’s more? As the Indian Power Ministry has set targets to include atleast one public charging station in every 3km x 3km grid in the urban areas, electric vehicle charging is assured to be within easy reach for you.
