[@kingoftigers7637]

My dad technically got 635kms in ev6 when he went to Kanyakumari from Bangalore but he was just trying to get max range without ac with ac at fan speed 1,2 you’d get 570kms range on a non steep plane at 70-80kmph as this speed is the sweet spot of ev6 to get max range

[@abhaysinghchoudhari3627]

Rs 4.2 per kilometer thats at par with CNG cars…i’m still skeptical about EV’s its like new age Trending Technology… it will be just optional ..

[@rahulgawade4951]

Oh Bhai 60 lakh ke gadi PE kon CNG lagayega?? Ev6 is a sports electric car as per the price 4 rs is nothing for the owner. Try tata EV cars or let's see the upcoming maruti ev, that car can easily do 2rs per km. Electric cars are expensive because cars are getting expensive too.

[@naughtyUphillboy]

This is 4WD performance EV, 0-100 5.2 Sec, sports car territory performance. Budget EVs are good, like Nexon EV.

[@iamniteshkumar]

I'm using Nexon EV and if it is charged at Home Infrastructure, then the running cost is slightly less than Rs. 1/Km which goes upto Rs. 2.5/Km on Public charging infrastructure as these chargers are charging from Rs. 15 per unit to Rs. 25 per unit.

[@confidential1234]

Ordinary people still thinks like that..

[@pramitdas2354]

Car mei mileage ke alawa bhi bahot se aur factors hote like power space comfort safety etc. You can not dismiss a Lamborghini saying ki mileage toh 3-4 ki deti hai, meri alto toh 20 deti hai! 😄 Plus this was external fast charging network, they will charge a premium for availing their service. If you use normal charger at home, it will cost significantly less.

[@gp_here]

Definitely interesting. 500km/ charge is a good threshold that can easily convert an ICE person to EV. Perhaps the day a budget EV like the nexon max crosses 500 km real world range will be the infliction point for EVs in India. The only question I'd have is what is this increased strain on electricity demand going to do to electricity prices? And is it possible we see some new taxes on these fast chargers

[@naughtyUphillboy]

@@naughtyUphillboy bro EVs are becoming more like smartphones. They’ll have yearly refreshes till the tech matures. Although these cars are for early adopters, for manufacturers, the EV battery will essentially become a huge business down the line People will still buy it to be “cool”

Alterations to a vehicle’s original form is not legal. Whether that change is worth the possible legal hassle is for you to decide.

[@anonymoussynchronous]

So ioniq better or ev6 or c40 recharge

[@zigwheels]

The Ioniq 5 is the most balanced of the lot. The EV6 AWD offers more excitement but the asking price is a lot higher owing to the fact that it’s an import while the Ioniq is assembled locally

[@anonymoussynchronous]

[@ram62836]

Battery prices would go down and the EV prices too. Premium segment would still remain irrespective of battery price. Example, a fully functional smart phone is now available between 15k to 200k.

[@telegrafmemes]

Battery technology needs to be changed. Li-ion battery is not the future. We should r&d on new battery materials.

[@Teja820]

What’s the actual range when 5 people are sitting

[@reetangovindji6009]

At almost Rs 26 per unit, it is the most expensive EV charging station available (120 kW). The Kerala State Electricity Board charges Rs 13 to Rs 14 per unit, including GST. Usually, state electricity boards offer the lowest rates, while private operators charge the highest.

[@zigwheels]

Yes. This particular fast charger is quite expensive. We chose it simply for convenience. Charging at home, and at other operators that offer slower chargers will be cheaper. :)

[@reetangovindji6009]

@@zigwheels Very true. Convenience is also important, especially when money is not a matter. "I, myself, am an EV supporter. It's not about just the pollution - it's about the economy of my country. Even at 26 rupees per unit, the money stays within our borders. With fossil fuels, all the money flows out to another country."

This is my worst nightmare. How did you manage ? Did you have to tow it back or you called the dealership?

[@techien6212]

Economics of fast charger won't work out for everyday use. Use home charge for everyday use. Biggest drawback is cost of vehicle.

[@thejharkhandichhora3700]

Bhai 2100 rs for 500 km of range . Fir electric car me itne paise laga ke kya fayada ?

[@ytbv]

Charging at home comes down to Rs.310 (vs Rs.2000 at an EV station). I own an EV6 from 4 months in Hyderabad. Never charged it at a station. I have a 30KwH charger that can charge my car in about 8 hours. So my numbers workout pretty well.

[@zigwheels]

Remember we’re charging at 120kW at a public fast charger. If you charge at home, your cost will be lower by 70-80%. An electric car in this category is a whole lot cheaper to run than a petrol powered luxury car that costs the same.

[@shankarbalan3813]

This is really interesting.500km on a single charge. That’s more or less how much one can get in a Petrol Hardtop Automatic Mahindra Thar!

[@zigwheels]

Also cheaper to ‘tank up’ even at an expensive fast charger 🤭

[@aakashdimri9903]

it is charged at the most expencive charging station at 26 rs per kwh. if we charge at normal charging station it should be around 13-14 rs per kwh which well be 1036 rs to charge. it depends on where you charge same like a petrol car fill petrol st shell petrol bunk you have to pay 7-8rs extra per ltr.

[@rishav8618]

512 km is still pretty good 👍

[@wasimakhtar343]

It's a 65-70 lac vehicle on-road. That amounts to a shit load of battery and hence the range.

[@sahildadhwal]

[@andrewcarnegie5342]

After EV adoption by majority, won't charging companies be tempted to charge people a lot more because people will have no good options. If running expense went at par or slightly less than petrol car even then people won't switch because they have already paid the EV price premium. So the only option that will be left will be slow 10-12 hour charging for that 200-250Km range. And because BJPee goormint likes to suck every bit of money from people, they might bring new law of separate unit rates for EV charging.
