Reality Check: Search For EV Charging Stations

Demand for electric vehicles is soaring. Since 2020, we’ve had new EVs coming up on the roads and the numbers are only expected to increase. It becomes crucial for the eco-system to evolve. We are not talking just about home chargers but the public charging system. According to a recent report by the government, India has more than 10 lakh EVs and more than 1,700 public charging stations. While most EV owners prefer the convenience of a home charger installed at their residence or office, public charging stations play an extremely important role. So, we thought of ditching the convenience of a home charger and take the 2022 MG ZS EV around Noida to check out the conditions of some of these pubic charging stations to check their ease of accessibility, operational, and of course charge the car.

Government should make a rule thay every petrol pumps in India should have at least 2 electric charging points

[@hub8-hyd]

[@deveshshrivastav8554]

New ZS EV is one of the best Ev in the segment the battery pack and the claimed range are fantastic. Yeah but designated parking slots are very less.

[@krish4u85]

Why govt not making mandatory to install fast DC charger at all petrol pump nation wide wherever it is feasible ?

[@nishantsahai1706]

Without proper charging and service center infrastructure very few will opt for EV's , thanks

[@mirwasimali149]

Last EV charger, which is operational comes from Swiss brand and it is very reliable too DC fast charger...

[@hub8-hyd]

lol ... this is worse than using public transportation.

[@MrHashisz]

This is the condition in Noida, imagine what it will be in other parts.

[@fonsekhmaniya1687]

Great reality check done by car n bike team member of actual situation of tall claims of EV charger showing in public documents for people to falsely trust to go for EV car

[@akashjha9194]

Thanks 👍. Informative video

[@fonsekhmaniya1687]

Request for same test to cover in Gurgaon tech city and Delhi which is claimed to be EV capital of country by politicians. Cost of travel covering the juice of battery consume in finding plus amount charge in charging with taxes added in final amount to be shown clearly.

Make a video on STATIQ EV chargers

ParkGenie a new way of finding EV charging station.

[@kaustabpaul4514]

very soon every home garage will be opened to charge EV when it will become popular... so all these talks will not matter at all

[@kapishgirdhar]

TRUSTING GOVT CLAIMS? WERE YOU BORN YESTERDAY?

[@carandbike]

Hello Kapish, thank you for taking the time out to watch the video. But without debating on the reliability of government data, it is imperative to mention these figures when speaking of public programs.

[@kapishgirdhar]

@@carandbike WHILE THERES NO DOUBT GOVTS DATA ISNT RELIABLE, WE DO APPRECIATE THESE PRACTICAL RESEARCH EXPERIMENTS. WOULD LOVE TO SEE MORE SUCH CONTENT, REGARDING 2 WHEELER EV RANGE TESTS, COMPARISION WITH SIMILARLY PRICED ICE VEHICLES, AND WHATS NEXT IN SAFETY REQUIREMENTS ON THE ROAD, LIKE TRUCKS SAFETY GUARD REGULATION, BUMPER TO BUMPER HIEGHT COMPARISION, AS STATED BY IIHS. HOPE THESE IDEAS ARE USEFUL FOR YOUR NEXT VIDEO PROJECTS

[@carandbike]

Absolutely Kapish, we shall surely take up these suggestions. 😄

As with everything in India, ongoing management and operations are a massive problem. Everybody wants to point to a new shiny object, nobody wants to talk about operating them.

Only you can force to make this possible just unite
