An electric vehicle (EV) is one that operates on an electric motor, rather of an internal-combustion machine that generates power by burning a mix of energy and feasts. Therefore, a possible relief for current- generation machine, in order to address the issue of rising pollution, global warming, depleting natural resources, etc.
Though the generality of electric vehicles has been around for a long time, it has drawn a considerable amount of interest in the formerly decade amid a rising carbon footprint and other environmental impacts of energy- predicated vehicles.
Electric Vehicles in India – “Miles Covered & Miles to go”
In India, the first concrete decision to incentivise electric vehicles was taken in 2010. According to a Rs 95-crore scheme approved by the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), the government announced a financial incitement for manufacturers for electric vehicles sold in India.
In 2013, India unveiled the ‘National Electric Mobility Mission Plan 2020 to make a major shift to electric vehicles & to address the issues of public energy security, vehicular pollution. The scheme impulses for clean- energy technology motorcars to boost their deals to over to 7 million vehicles by 2020.
Innovation of Electric Cars – Saving Fuel
In 2017 ISRO tested a solar-powered cold-thoroughbred automobile-a modified Maruti Omni with a solar panel platform installed on top of the bus. The Hyundai Kona electric has the topmost range of 452 km in a single charge among the electric motorcars available in India.

Pro’s of using Automated Electric Cars
Electric cars reduce emissions
- Emission reduction & reduced usage of fuel, is another pro for all-electric vehicles.
- The rechargeable battery spends much less on fuel, hence, energy is sourced domestically
- AEVs means they can drive 100 miles while consuming only 25 to 40 kilowatt-hours (kWh)
- The distance traveled for a fuel cost of $1.00 is nearly four times as far with an electric vehicle.
Electric cars are high performance & low maintenance
- Requires less maintenance than internal combustion engines.
- AEV motors react quickly, making them responsive with good torque.
- AEVs are newer providing digitally connected with charging stations
- Provides & facilitates option to control charging from an app.
Con’s of using Automated Electric Cars
Electric cars can travel less distance
- AEVs on average have a shorter range than gas-powered cars.
- Most models ranging between 60 and 120 miles per charge
- AEV may be an issue & not suitable for frequently take long trips
- AEVs less suitable for activities like road trips.
Electric cars take longer to “refuel”
- Fueling an all-electric car can also be an issue.
- Fully recharging the battery with a Level 1 or Level 2 charger take up to 8 hours.
- Even fast charging stations take 30 minutes to charge to 80 percent capacity.
- Running out of power can’t be solved by a quick stop at the gas pump.
