Celebrating India’s EV Journey

Today is World EV Day. The day is observed every year with special awareness campaigns being organized globally to educate people about the benefits of electric vehicles.

While China is the world’s largest EV market, India is the second largest and most promising. Driven by incentives by the Centre and the states, the adoption of EVs is gaining momentum. India’s EV sector is attracting increasing investments in battery technology, charging infrastructure and product options. Some of the biggest brands in the EV space include Tata Nexon in cars, the Mahindra Treo in three-wheelers and Hero Electric and Ola in scooters. In addition, there are a whole lot of startups that are working on various aspects of the EV eco-system.

In this article, Autocar Professional takes you through India’s EV landscape with leaders in the segment commenting on sustainable mobility and a zero-emission future.

Meanwhile, a recent study by Castrol study has highlighted key insights on EV readiness for markets, carmakers, and consumers. Its global survey ‘Switching ON the rEVolution’ covering 10,000 consumers and 100 leaders from car manufacturers in 10 key global markets, including India suggests that 44 percent of consumers surveyed in India are considering an EV for their next vehicle purchase while 55 percent are still considering an ICE vehicle.

Shailesh Chandra, MD, Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles and Tata Passenger Electric Mobility

World EV Day is indeed a special day for us, as we look back and reflect on our journey so far. We are proud to lead the EV market in India, with a lion’s share of 88 percent. As early entrants, we have shaped the market and seen it grow with Nexon EV and Tigor EV. We have over 40,000 Tata EVs plying on road. We have also established Tata UniEVerse, a one of its kind EV ecosystem, which is further propelling the EV adoption.

Santosh Iyer, VP-Sales & Marketing, Mercedes-Benz India

Mercedes-Benz Indian has a very aggressive EV roadmap for the Indian market with three new luxury EVs. We pioneered luxury EVs in India with the EQC in 2020, which received good response from the early adopters in the luxury segment. EQC’s acceptability and market success set the ground for other brands to foray into the luxury EV segment.

Suman Mishra, Mahindra Electric Mobility

We celebrate India’s electrification journey. At Mahindra Last Mile Mobility, we are committed to promoting sustainable motoring with zero emission products. I am confident that with our collective efforts, we can enable a green and smarter tomorrow for India.

Warren Harris, CEO, Tata Technologies

Tata Technologies’ vision of Engineering a better world embodies our commitment to providing sustainable solutions especially in the rapidly growing Electric Vehicle Market. The transition to EV is also an opportunity and would also be synonymous with a move to connected vehicles enabled by ADAS and digital customer experience solutions. Tata Technologies offers end-to-end solutions for engineering, manufacturing support, and customer experience solutions for EVs globally. We have developed an elaborate EV ecosystem through alliances and partnerships across the world, including an alliance with MIH Consortium which enables us to leverage the EV ecosystem to deliver best value for our Customers.

Nagesh Basavanhalli, Executive Vice Chairman, Greaves Cotton

Greaves Electric Mobility owned Ampere is one of the fastest growing electric two-wheeler brands in the Country while the company also operates/owns the rapidly growing e-rickshaw brand Ele (Bestway) and the Teja (MLR Auto) range of L5 category three wheelers. Together the portfolio offers a strong value proposition to electrifying the way people and goods move across our country.

Mahesh Babu, CEO, Switch Mobility India, COO, Switch Mobility

To meet India’s global commitment to become Net Zero by 2070, we need to prioritize not just public transport, but public transport with zero tailpipe emissions. Electric buses are clearly the best and obvious solution to accelerate decarbonisation with increasing mass mobility. It is this imperative that guides us at Switch Mobility — to help India attain its ambitious Net Zero target by offering the society with smart, clean mass mobility solutions that are also technologically advanced, safe and comfortable for passengers. Our vision is to transform mass mobility across cities and highways, and bring about a clean revolution in the way people travel. I take the opportunity on World EV Day 2022 to invite partners and people who share the same vision to jointly achieve this critical transition.

Balbir Singh Dhillon, Head of Audi

We have installed 100+ chargers pan-India and 16 high-speed 50kW chargers across our dealerships located across strategic highways within the country. In line with our global plans to be all-electric by 2033, we are aiming to achieve about 15 percent of our India sales from EVs by 2025–2026. It’s time we start to care for the climate. I think the sooner we realise we are responsible for it, the better it is for all.

The agency has asked the Bureau of Indian Standards to conduct a detailed investigation.

The Indian Electric Vehicle Market

The shift to Electric Vehicles (EVs) is happening world-wide - and is moving rapidly in India too. The purchasing power of India’s burgeoning middle class is increasing, and more people are investing in vehicles. With the increasing cost of fossil-fuels in India, the need for EVs is acute here. However, the scarcity of lithium reserves made the Indian market dependent on other countries to charge the EVs, especially China which has control over 80% of the world’s lithium reserves. The ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’ resolve of the government is pushing research on alternate means of charging EVs. The world is moving away from China in the wake of the COVID pandemic and is looking at India as a global manufacturing hub for EVs, riding on the already existing ecosystem of vehicle manufacture here.

Why EVs?

The major advantage of any EV is the ability to regenerate power, which is very useful in any urban environment which involves frequent braking and acceleration. With fewer moving parts EVs need less maintenance and lower operational costs. With no gears, combustion and mechanical drivetrains they are more convenient to operate. Home charging along with government incentives to EV owners such as Income Tax Deduction claim up to INR 150000 make purchasing an EV a wise decision. Besides, zero emission ensures minimal adverse impact on our health. Already, the number of EVs sold has witnessed quantum jumps, year-on-year since 2016.

The Charging Technology

Economic alternatives to the Li-ion charging have been developed and are ready for commercial use, such as Sodium-ion charging or Aluminium-air technology with abundant reserves available in India. With an impressive cost of manufacture in India, many multinational companies have either started or tied up with Indian companies to manufacture this alternative. Many automobile majors in India have already entered into agreements for use of these alternative charging mechanisms.

Incentivising the manufacture of EVs

In a healthy ecosystem, each state in India is wooing investment in the EV sector with various incentives. The world’s largest Electric Scooter manufacturing facility, OLA. is coming up in Tamil Nadu, and another Electric Scooter brand, Ather, has already started manufacturing here. Major heavy vehicle manufacturers (buses and lorries) are betting big with many state governments shifting their public transport to EVs already.

EV manufacturers, Tata Motors and Mahindra have tied up with an Aluminium-air charger manufacturer to power their EVs. The world’s largest manufacturer of Sodium-ion technology, Faradion, has set up base in India and should start production soon to offer an economic alternative to charge EVs. Major vehicle brands in India – Tata Motors, Hyundai, MG and Mahindra are already offering a line of EVs, and other brands will follow suit.  With the expected entirety of vehicle manufacture in India shifting to EVs, the price of EVs will also be attractive as an alternative to fossil-fuelled vehicles. The abundant availability of chargers will make the charging process easy and smooth.

The Infrastructure to Support

The roadmap to EVs as a viable alternative depends on the charging infrastructure available.

“The government is pushing deployment of EV charging stations by providing capital subsidy through Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Electric Vehicles in India (FAME) India Scheme Phase II and state level initiatives. Further, the government has delicensed the activity of setting up EV charging stations to increase private sector investments and facilitate market adoption” – Bureau of Energy Efficiency, Government of India, Ministry of Power (https://beeindia.gov.in/content/e-mobility).

Under Phase I of FAME India Scheme, 970 charging stations have been installed, and 2877 more EV charging stations across 25 States/UTs have been sanctioned under Phase II. In a big push for the EV sector, the government shared plans to set up at least one EV charging kiosk at each of the 69000 petrol pumps across the country.

No wonder that the Indian Electric Vehicle Market is poised for growth, and many EVs (cars, scooters, 3-wheeled autos, and heavy vehicles such as lorries and buses – many state bus fleets have already completely shifted to EVs) are already on the roads today. Although the sales figures till today leave much scope for growth, the traction the industry is observing today promises phenomenal growth in the coming years.

MELSS provides many electric vehicle test solutions, and has been keeping pace with the fast technology changes in the EV charging space, and brings you an exhaustive range of testing machines from Chroma ATE to test the chargers of EVs. We offer solutions catering to various standards, from AC/DC/CHAdeMO to CCS.

About Ola Electric - Revolutionizing Electric Mobility

I like the way this looks and I like it the way it rides I don't like mono shark because this one has two if you blow one you have a shock. This mileage is incredible on the base model motorcycle and it has two more above it. The price is outstanding and it should be kept there so people can buy it and the construction simple it's really as simple as an ebike and it costs just a little bit more and it's less than an expensive eBay but it does more I wouldn't say that's how it should be but they can sell these things anywhere on Earth tomorrow they can sell 10 trillion if they wanted to if they could be manufacturing when I say is my people can make the parts and get them to them to assemble or even send them out RTA they make tons of money it's something naked it's up to them they can direct the customers to us or order the parts to their warehouse I mean I don't care how they do it and I know they are funny guys but still this might this bike is awesome India has a lot of motorcycles they have motorcycles everywhere like China at least they used to it's only a few years ago they're all over the place I hit it still are they're everywhere and it's kind of looks a little like it like the tires and rims just like in China they're not really huge they're bigger but and they're inexpensive so in India and China it's not a big deal to build a bike and sell it for Grant in the states it's unheard of they're using a mid-drive but they probably use a gang battery system which is fine you can change the battery to solid battery. That's one of their goals but for crying out loud that is really inexpensive and the bike looks really nice and I need a way to get around and that would get me around and it goes forever I can if I sold my e-bikes I could afford the top line one and put it inside the apartment and go like 200 miles on a charge or more this is the base model goes 100 miles or something close to it and you never hear about that that's ridiculous that's a lot of mileage

Zues

He read the statistics real quick but it's true it's they're pretty high up there one of them looks ridiculous like 300 MI and I saw it on the corner of my eye it's like 500 km or something and it's a nice clean bike and it really goes fast the base model 120 mph and he thinks it's $120 mph not kilometers could be kilometers it's still almost 90 something as fast it's very fast

Hera

The Price is Right the design is very simple and it's efficient and a son helped them come up with it he said look what they're doing is just take taking this mid drive and they're making a big deal out of it and you can get ones that are powerful and they're cheap and they did and it took a regular battery which is a game battery with the bigger d battery cell I made it pretty big and it works and it is in India those motorcycles are so cheap they have tons of them they're everywhere and they pump them out like nothing and their stuff is the expensive side and they made it inexpensive like you suggested I think it's got 3,000 Watts Bass and it goes up in increments to everything 5,000 and yeah the top mileage is around 300 miles top speed is around 240 mph not kilometers it's amazing this bike is cheap and will get you around town and it'll get you around the city you go around your neighborhood and it's not a hassle it's not a scooter we wipe out of your turn wrong I mean these things are real motorcycles and they're they're not huge and they're not small it's really nice they they finally did it right and they're probably going to have trouble cuz it's right in the crease and we'd like to somehow get involved because we don't want it to sink and just and just disappear but it's real hard to do but they might be able to handle it India wants it to go and wants to have them do it so they've got support and they usually get support from Pakistan but what a nice thing is it's ridiculous the price is like $1,000 for the base roadster model is what they call it and he says they might be able to get it here at power and x or whatever it is motorcycle place do they have a line on an Indian motorcycle and they have them in stock the Indian motorcycles and they have Chinese stuff and boys he can't really this would be swell he can't really ride a motorcycle but if he was forced to which I don't think so you can drive all over the place and he go far enough and it takes like a few hours to charge for you bring it with you you can charge off in any outlet and you'd be surprised where outlets are out in the middle of nowhere in the landscaping and they're everywhere outside of apartments outside of restaurants and you hook up to it and it's just a charger it doesn't take much power you can sit there and eat lunch and charge it that's what a dream is right there the dream is you go to like Starbucks and you have like five motorcycles charging and takes no power and you extract customers but that's something that might happen and Joe Biden did a good job this would be great maybe they would stop me and losers but it's for something that's really bad but still this idea works and the bike is priced Right and we want people to try and order it if you're nearby or you're in India give them a call

Thor Freya

Well you think it's nice everyone has confidence and they don't really but no they have confidence in the bike that it works and it's functioning and we helped but yeah they are in trouble already they're commercials are being taken down and they're pushed around by Mac proper we want this put out there so people know in India and the Indian people are fighting them you should fight for this you might have to go electric because they are using the fuel up and lithium is not good but the whole system would be in place and you just make a switch for the alternator and that's it everything would be easy instead of a nightmare which is coming

God and goddess of India

We too see it and we want them to open shops here and test drive shops here and they say 2025 and we say that's ridiculous they're already building them though and he says just renovate some buildings he's too long for ground up and there's so many buildings and suggest that you get some companies out there and provide some government funding I think we're going to go ahead and do this this is a great idea to help support them

Pakistan

I hear him over there and he's angry he's saying this sucks his Mac proper blow they're absolutely nuts running them around for years and they ran me ragged and I'm doing really stupid stuff getting hurt and he knows it too and he can't do anything and just sits there and has to suffer but yeah this motorcycles hours took some time to do and he said good it's a positive thing and he likes how it came out he likes how it looks and yeah if that motorcycle place can get them he'd probably get one but he's afraid to ride on the street and I see why everybody's right on him it's terrible yeah maybe in the future but he wanted to test ride it and he knows that he can't do it and he knows he can't ride on the street but we wanted to test ride it and can because people buy it and I know how he rides he rides pretty good wants to do a wheelie he says tons would sell

Aaron

Olympus we think it's cool because we heard him too inside and saying I can't really do it but I want to test drive it and he couldn't get the thing to work but he wants to post it he wants to keep it somewhere and we can help him but test driving it would be fun and who knows he might even sell them you won't ride them it'll sell them he could be a broker it'll be a fun job cuz this blows

Ahmedabad Based E-Bike Startup Matter Secures $10 Million In Maiden Funding Round

Electric mobility startup Matter has secured $10 million (Rs 82.6 crore) in its first-ever equity funding round. This investment will fuel the company’s growth and expansion plans in the burgeoning electric bike (e-bike) market.

Key Investors and Valuation

Prominent investors participated in the investment round, including Abhay P Shah on behalf of Miracle Carriers (Rs 5 crore), Info Edge-backed Capital 2B Fund (Rs 10.8 crore), Japan Airlines & Translink Fund (Rs 25 crore), and Helena Special Investments Fund (Rs 41.75 crore). Matter’s post-allotment valuation is estimated by TheKredible to be around Rs 1,690 crore ($204 million).

Growth Trajectory and Market Positioning

Matter targets the high-end e-bike market and was introduced in early 2023. In May 2023, the business started taking preorders for their debut bicycle. Matter apparently wants to fund an extra $200 million to expand operations, distribution networks, and construct a manufacturing plant. FY24 financials are not yet public.

With premium e-bikes starting at Rs 1.7 lakh, Matter targets a different client demographic than mass-market competitors like Ola Electric and Ather. Their main rivals in the high-end e-bike market include Revolt (run by RattanIndia Enterprises), TVS-backed Ultraviolette, and Tork Motors (supported by Bharat Forge). Ultraviolette is supposedly in negotiations for a larger $100 million round of finance, despite Tork Motors having already raised $6 million this year. Furthermore, by FY26, market leader Ola Electric intends to join the e-bike space.

Matter faces competition in the e-bike market from Tork Motors, supported by Bharat Forge, Ultraviolette, funded by TVS, and Revolt, managed by RattanIndia Enterprises. In January of this year, Tork Motors raised $6 million from Maxis Capital, while Ultraviolette has apparently been in talks to raise a larger round of funding totaling $100 million. By FY26, Ola Electric, a company that already produces electric scooters, intends to join the e-bike market.

Electric Two-Wheeler Market: 2024 Scheme Sparks 70% Cost Hike, Yet Bright Future Predicted!

The Indian electric two-wheeler market is on the cusp of a significant transformation, with the impending Electric Mobility Promotion Scheme 2024 set to reshape the industry landscape. According to forecasts by the Investment Information and Credit Rating Agency of India Limited (ICRA), this scheme, replacing the outgoing FAME 2 initiative, will catalyze a pronounced shift towards electric vehicles (EVs) while introducing new dynamics to consider.

The scheme, effective from April 1 to July 31, is backed by a substantial Rs 500 crore allocation from the Ministry of Heavy Industries, targeting the promotion of electric two and three-wheelers. However, a key change lies in the reduction of subsidies, dropping from Rs 10,000/kWh to Rs 5,000/kWh, with a maximum benefit cap of Rs 10,000 per vehicle. This alteration is expected to raise the upfront costs of electric bikes and scooters by around 10 percent, posing a challenge for prospective buyers.

ICRA's analysis highlights a significant impact on the initial purchase costs of electric two-wheelers, rendering them over 70 percent more expensive than their Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) counterparts. Consequently, the payback period for these vehicles is expected to extend to 5.5 years, compared to the previous five years under FAME 2, posing a temporary hurdle to widespread adoption.

Despite these immediate challenges, the long-term outlook for electric two-wheelers in India remains promising. Factors such as lower ownership costs, enhanced safety features, and increased range contribute to their attractiveness. Moreover, the government's continued commitment to driving EV adoption through schemes like the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) further supports this optimistic trajectory.

ICRA anticipates a substantial market penetration for electric two-wheelers, projecting a rise to 6-8 percent by 2025 from the current 5 percent. While the Electric Mobility Promotion Scheme 2024 brings about a price hike initially, the overarching benefits and government support signal a positive evolution towards a sustainable and electrified future for mobility in India.
