[@226930872010]

This is soo amazing technology...insted of scrapping all petrol and dieselccar..its better to install electric system and convert into electric...which will save millions of money on making new electric car . Great prototype ...excellent work..

[@226930872010]

@Vihari N yes.....i agree with you...perhaps that is what they might be figuringout now a days! 😊

[@camfam52002]

If the entire worlds vehicle fleet is scrapped to make way for EV roll-out then the impact to CO2 emissions would make it all a futile exercise. Better we convert as much as possible and limit waste of finite resources.

[@raaghavlonial4769]

Remote Controlled BS 6 vehicles are very less polluting plus electricity is not available in all areas and electric vehicles are more expensive and charging takes time and 50% electricity is made from coal which EVs will increase the demad for which will increase pollution. In flood affected areas you cannot charge the vehicles but can fill petrol. And there will be a huge number of unemployment due to ICE engine parts There are very large number of MSMEs producing automotive components which will have to close down and the government is running on petrol and diesel taxes. Ev will take long time to charge even at charging station suppose it takes1 hour.India being a very populated country people cannot wait for such long time in summers when its 45 degrees. And people living in flats ,small houses cannot charge their vehicles. It will take a long time for EVs to come or its impossible and government too has accepted this and said that further both EVs and ICE engine cars will be registered, the companies should look for ethanol engines cng lpg engines and hybrid cars. And EV components come from china and lithium will also be have to be imported from there as we import crude oil. And unemployment will be on a large number so ICE engines should continue. Plus scrapping EVs is a very polluting process than engines. And electric vehicles looses 4-5% range every year and not suitable for snow areas. And in india , according to sources in hot areas battery may heat up and can switch off for some time.

@@raaghavlonial4769 IOC (Indian Oil corporation) started one project for producing Metal Air battery which doesn't need recharging just change the anode plates, within 3 minutes at IOC centers , it got powered up again . The technology is with Israel company. IOC partnered with them to produce metal - air batteries in India. IOC predicted fall in oil business, and sustain it's business ventured in battery business. Your concerns for MSME in MV industry is correct. But they all can switchover business to EV vehicle. More inventions in electrical power strorage, less cost , more power density , less recharging time may be expected in near future. More EV change with Current level technologies, and also high cost is not feasible , Any new breakthrough invention only wipe out existing petrol diesel vehicles.

[@abhijeetlohote7241]

Appreciate make in india by bosh. This is just the start. My view on this, it is clearly evident that due to weight of batteries in the boot, the car seems to be pinched down at the rear. I have experience on cng converted car on similar thing and trust me, this creates ride issue when two people accompany at the rear seats. You have to take care for small patches or bumps of the road everytime while driving since the car keeps on jumping from back. Even the life of suspension also decreases and to be replaced early. Whereas tesla has done a fantastic job by integrating their custom manufactured battery in the floor itself thus enabling centre of gravity precisely. I understand that the aim here is to convert existing gasoline car into electric with minimal changes wherein bosch has succeeded in such a short timespan is very commendable job. Thumbs up 👍

[@mohitrana7318]

Indian govt do not want to introduce electric vehicles at all, coz electric vehicles are almost maintenance free & the whole industry of after sales service is one of the most lucrative business ( for example if you have a sub compact sedan like DZire , Amaze & so on maintenance costs are around 50 paise per km ( approx ) , so you can calculate the costs , and hence the auto industry & the govt burning hole in our pockets will banish . So , suppose if you buy an electric car ROI ( or the break even time ) will be less as compared to the conventional cars !! Hats off to the our Govt & auto industry!!

[@kichukrish]

I would agree if you said the gov with respect to the petroleum products 50paisa per km for the IC engine maintenance is really too high for the cars that you have mentioned. Must be half or even less. The maintenance cost for the rest of the mechanical parts are almost same for both cars,like suspension, brake, bushes etc components.

[@cajaykiran]

Awesome work by Bosch. Next obvious questions : When is it going to be reality. What would be the price . How many kilometers per full charge. Appreciate your response. As it would help spread the word and make people aware of such research in India

Truly awesome job.. But I guess it's too early to ask for pricing and specs as the battery pack is small (in the boot as mentioned in the interview.. So the redundant petrol tank still occupies space) + no ac.. yet.. But worth tracking!

Electric car kits are the way going forward, as the existing new electric cars in the Indian market are too costly for too basic. Besides, very soon in fifteen years after registration, combustion engine driven cars are gonna get deregistered. What a company like Bosch could also do is see if the body panels could double up as solar charging panels to make it CHARGE FREE.

[@satishnatrajan3839]

Interesting! Please explain what you mean by 'car kits'? You mean for assembly by customer, like Ikea furniture kits? Or computers? Perhaps the charging points infrastructure too should be wind and solar energy based.

Indian govt should reduce the taxes for electric vehicles just like the Norway govt did. Subsidized prices under ₹10 lakh for an EV of this power and a range of almost 400km would make it a hotseller in cities.

[@AutoKay]

saurabh I wonder why would anyone need a city car with 400km of range? 250km is more than enough!

[@SaurabhSubhashMelveetil]

Kaustubh Kadu 250km for the base variant and almost 500km for the maxed out spec model would be a sweet bet. More choices are always better.

[@sohitmalik9865]

Govt has given subsidy on EV purchase upto 1lakh....

[@SaurabhSubhashMelveetil]

sohit malik In Norway more than 50% of new cars sold are EVs. Those huge numbers are because of the tax incentives. - No purchase/import tax(in India import taxes are 100% of the car value) - Low annual road tax. - Free parking. - free toll charges. As a country with lots of highly polluted cities, our country should also implement some similar policies to encourage more people to buy EVs.

Great thing to see it happening but Government wont speed up its regulatory part. The reasons are 01.Central Govt , state govt get maximum revenue out of crude import 02. There is a huge hidden income in allotment of Petrol Pumps 03. The speed and efficiency is the huge area of concern for all state and central regulatory bodies. Our Indian talent is working hard to make this reforming change as reality as the projects like bio fuel , Bio CNG which is very much in available but not to the public at large. Recently it has been seen that bio fuel trial was done to replace ATF and not petrol and diesel. If we can add 5 to 10 % Ethanol in petrol then why cant we run all vehicles on Ethanol??The cost of Ethenol is just Rs 30/- per ltr and Govt procurement price is Rs 41.00 per ltr. Yes we can but if it happen in reality then public at large will get benefit but both Central and State government will loose huge revenue along with extra income .

Making a prototype out of an existing petrol car with a range of about 50km from a 10KWh battery is no big deal. Just check out Jehugarcia's channel along with EV West and so many others in the US and other places. This is BS from Bosch's side trying show off something that's already there. You can already get lithium ion battery modules for cars with high power induction motors from Mumbai. Not to mention going green is just a lie unless the electricity is from renewable sources like solar.

[@UK1415]

Someone talking sense finally! though I would disagree on the going green part! Electric vehicles are a notch better if you compare the whole carbon footprint even if the electricity is from coal-powered plants! if the charging of batteries does take place through renewable sources, solar/wind/hydro - its even better

[@the_good_lad]

I do agree with you to some extend on going green, it's not too hard to use solar panels for charging. People are being mislead by most of the Indian manufacturers about electric vehicles.

[@UK1415]

@@the_good_lad it's way too difficult to bring some change to the conventional system. Many People don't even understand EV tech and our market is not yet matured to take it to a level where people will start considering EVs. Plus the cost factor is yet to be cooled off a bit. Even if our needs and requirements are fulfilled, we will never be satisfied. That's our primary nature. So getting EVs into the ecosystem is difficult.
