Have been an owner of the TIAGO EV for about a year. Best Decision I made 1. Needed a city commuter to do 50 kms every day. (ONLY car in family) 2. Will keep it for 10 yrs at least ( not bothered about resale value). Save around a LAKH on fuel in a year. Will recover the vehicle's entire amount in 10 years. 3. Love the Gearless drive, super refined silent stressfree ride. 4. Love the predictable range. 5. Planning for a 2nd Outstation trip as I realised that you don't have to spend on FUEL..!!! And my next car will definitely ALSO be an EV... "Dunia Jayee Tel Lene" (Literally).

I was in Jodhpur tata service centre a few hours ago to service my hexa. EVs & tata have a long way to go. There was no customer who wasn't upset with the car. So many EVs and all of them have issues like not charging or stalling or not accelerating. Autocar should also do a true survey and brand reliability test

My predictions for the year 2030 - EV scooters will have 50% market share - EV cars will have a market share of about 10% - EV 3 wheeler will be 90-95% of total wales - most metro cities will have a large Electric Bus fleet

I never thought I d buy an EV considering I ve always loved the classic internal combustion engine per se. However, late last year I re acquainted myself with EVs by test driving all of them. And Ultimately I settled on the Hyundai Kona because with the various discounts on offer, coupled with the fact that it is an end of lifecycle product, it became such a fantastic value for money product, that I could no longer resist. And it is a CKD Hyundai, with the kind of build quality, fit, finish and finesse that one expects from these European cars. I loved its classic understated looks and its performance, including ride comfort and behaviour at higher speeds on highways, lower speeds in the city and everything in between. I appreciate its ground clearance which works perfectly well for Bangalore. And I am so far, happy with its range. Yes I never charge beyond 85% and generally dont let it get below 20%. Within this band, I am able to drive around 250-300Kms. Like one can do a Bangalore - Mysore - Bangalore and one may need only a 20 minute “top up” in Mysore to achieve that. The interesting thing is when I drive my EV, my whole demeanour and driving style totally changes. I enjoy its acceleration, but. above all I soak myself in its silence and the sound of music in the car. Also, for your information, the performance is extremely exhilarating though maybe not quite as teeth blistering as the AWD Kia EV6. But thats fine! Another interesting thing is that one never feels the urge to fill it up full as one would, with a petrol or diesel car. One uses it, charges it a bit, increases the range and keeps going. And one times ones stops neatly along with some food or shopping and charges as needed. Overall, I am not getting into all this virtue signalling and all that, because I still love my Petrol cars, but I am simply using my EV as an alternative fuelled vehicle. It is a totally different experience and I am enjoying it a lot. Not to forget, the effective cost - if one does about 800 or 1000 kms a month, in a petrol car one may spend about 10000 to 12000 Rupees worth of Petrol. (My earlier car the Mahindra Thar for example was quite an inveterate drinker in that sense.) By contrast in this EV, one can drive the same distance as mentioned above and one honestly wont end up spending more than 20% of the above mentioned costs! Dont debunk EV’s until you have tried one. That’s my sincere take-out.

9:00 it is not EV sales that is slowing, it is sales growth which is slowing. If a brand sells 50 cars in 2021 and 100 cars in 2022, thats 100% sales growth But if in 2023, same brand sells 150 cars, thats just 50% sales growth. Then if you sell 200 cars in 2024, thats even lesser at 33% growth. Mind you, the brand is consistently selling 50 more units every year than last year, but sales growth is still slowing. This is inevitable in the uptake of any tech. 9:35 there was an autocar professional feature itself on tata EV sales which concluded that 50% tata EV customers are first time buyers and living in tier 2/3 cities, so I think this claim is unbacked, purely anecdotal. For luxury market where say, a potential i4 or EQS buyer already has a dozen other cars in their garage, this may hold true, but not for most of the people, especially those who are not car enthusiasts and are not engaging on car related discussions on the internet 11:25 it wont be wrong to say that most cars themselves are a city phenomenon, when you see NHAI data, only about 6million vehicles pass tolls daily all over india, ie including trucks and bus and other commercial vehicles. Even if 50% of the total was pvt cars, it would be 3 million or just 1% of the 300million strong car fleet. We as enthusiasts maybe into road trips and long drives, but truth is, cars are a rarity itself, at around 3 cars per 100 people. Then, it is not like air travel and AC rail travel is costly, for most middle class, train is still staple mode of transport for long distance, especially since if you have a joint family and a small car, it is not possible to carry everyone 500km away WITH luggage, for a week long marriage ceremony. The upper middle class is using flights a lot, thanks to air miles on credit cards and whatnot. It is important to take a step back and see the bigger picture about city vs highway usage of cars in general, not just EV itself. Most people don't even break 10K km per year on their ICE cars because they only drive in city.

As per TCO calculations one should only buy and EV if the daily running is long. I read in some report that the added cost of a Nexon EV over and ICE takes ~50-70k kms to recover. And if a person is going only 7-8k kms per buying a ICE still makes sense since it will take 7-8 yrs to recover the cost. At which point people start hunting for a new car.

One point to add here is that India is now adding more renewable power than we are adding EVs, so one can argue that the new EVs are using newer renewable power! EVs can be a mainstream use for all city driving. Only for people who want to drive 1000kms a day can’t use an EV. EV adoption will have to take place from grassroots level: start at two wheelers - scooters and bikes, three wheelers - autorickshaws, and next for sun 1 ton mini trucks - Tata Ace class vehicles. Next up should be city buses with swappable batteries. Next step will be LCV trucks up to 6tons capacity. Lastly it will be passengers cars and long distance busses and trucks. The reason I say this is because only a few early adopters will jump into EV passenger cars, the rest will wait out.

Gist - This is a podcast episode about electric vehicles (EVs) in India. Here are the key points: * The Indian government is offering subsidies and tax breaks to promote EVs. * Tata Motors is the leading manufacturer of EVs in India. * Early adopters of EVs are happy with the experience, especially in cities where they can charge at home. * Range anxiety (fear of running out of battery) is a concern for some people, especially for long trips. * The public charging infrastructure for EVs in India is still not very developed. * The resale value of EVs is uncertain. * Battery life is a concern for some people, but batteries are warrantied for 8-10 years and degradation is gradual. * Battery fires are a rare occurrence, and EVs are no more likely to catch fire than gasoline vehicles. * There is a debate about the type of battery chemistry that is best for EVs: NMC batteries have a higher energy density but are more likely to overheat, while LFP batteries are less energy-dense but more stable. The conclusion is that EVs are a good option for city cars, but there are still some challenges that need to be addressed before they can become mainstream in India.

Maruti delayed the launch for too long, claiming a 2-door wouldn't work in India, and Mahindra Thar used that gap to its advantage. But honestly, every brand needs an iconic product that defines them. It doesn't have to be a mass seller but should be there to show people they're passionate about what they do. The Jimny is that vehicle for Maruti in India, and having it in their lineup will reflect positively on their other vehicles as well.

For me, the EV choice is about convinience, not cost. I dont have the ability to install a home charger (rented apt) and the charging times are very slow even on DC fast chargers. Ideally, the EV charge time should be twice as long as it would take to fill up an ICE car and have a real range of 350-400 kms. I believe this would make more people switch over since all the other important bits are in place already

And yes you never know when Lithium batteries will be obsolete 💯🤘🏻. Sodium ion batteries or Aluminum air batteries have much more long range. Companies still working on them.

EVs in the 2 wheeler segment are just fine. Ather and Ola have got the right formula. But for Cars, ai think we are a long way off. Car ownership will fall, go out of fashion if shared transportation is made available. Look at an apartment complex, more then 50% of cars are never used or used very rarely. There must be some way of making a group of buyers share a limited no of cars.

EVs are failing- Globally. Reasons?: RANGE ANXIETY, RIDICULOUSLY LONG CHARGING TIME, LACK OF INFRASTRUCTURE.(unless there is a breakthrough that reduces the charging time to less than 5 minutes, there is no escape from this). The biggest reason for the downfall of EVs apart from lack of EV infrastructure, range anxiety and long charging time is that EV cars become useless and obsolete after their battery warranty period. It is like buying a use-and-throw gadget. You either pay a ridiculous amount of money to change the battery (You can buy a new car for that money) or put it in a dump yard. On the other hand, ICE cars retain 30 to 50 % of their value even after 8 years. If you buy a reliable ICE car, you can use it for decades. All manufacturers know this and more and more people have started to complain about their experiences about the amount they are being charged to replace dead batteries. No wonder EVs are failing.

Im an ev user for 7 months. We have 10kw rooftop solar plant. We have a primary ICE SUV for long travel. We own a TATA Nexon ev for city and under 100 kms drive. Monthly my savings from ev car itself, which i drive for 1000-1200kms, is around 10000 rupees. Bill on household electricity bill 3000-3500 rs, and the money paid from the government as ours is an on-grid solar plant, is around 2000-2500rs. Total savings per month 15000-16500 rs. On top of it, fantastic driving experience.😊 As a second car, for in and around city, with your own rooftop solar, its one of the best investments 😊

Our grid system is not capable to handle 10% EV market share in India. Batteries need to be cheaper, more reliable and provide better range for more adoption.

EV owner. It’s a no-brainer city car. I save a lakh per year. The only disadvantage is I cannot take it outside the city.

There are other problems as well. Range reduces significantly in peak summers. 130 km in full charge in Pinch LR EV. Also Dealers service in Tata is some cases are pathetic, they have some con practises. Even Brand Tata doesn’t respond to complaints.

Resale Value should be higher for EV compared to normal ICE cars simply because it has more material which can be recycle like copper from all electrical wires, lithium and cobalt etc from battery. and nowadays same value ice car is more tax than car.

EVs will surely have higher scrap value than ICE vehicles for the reason you mentioned......but the jury is still out on vehicle resale value.....

Gov should charge road tax on EVs and give subsidy on ex showroom price to make it comparable with ICE.

my only concern is that after 8-10 years when batteries will die completely, where on earth they gonna put dead batteries ?

One line what Hormazd say "EV are one dimensional and no emotions". That will be biggest deterrent for me. Also 90% home dont have parking for more than 1 car, so keeping EV as second vehicle for city is a luxury for most of them. That includes me. For me EV will remain and flourish for 2 wheelers as that makes more sense for many of us.

Coal is the main source of energy in india that's why evs are not that much environment friendly. Also lithium extraction emitting more carbon then petrol in short time

Manufacturer should focus on robust car design with modular battery pack which is replaceable as technology advances

Skateboard platform does that....but they should stick with same aesthetics/body and standardize sizes/shape of batteries

If there is not battery replacement plan that car makers offer, there is not going to be resale.

Evs r built to cost and not built to last . Even in TESLAS Rattling is a common thing… even people inthe well advanced Nations like EU countries & US r hesitating to buy an EV . For majority of Indians car is a long cherished dream and they don’t want to take risks that even Majority of the US & EU people r worried about

EV are Mobile phone meets Car at each level... EV are the future but Lithium based are not there comes it Resale Value... Resale Value: I am one of them who believes that resale value is very difficult to come by. EV to me is leasing. I am getting on a company lease. Usage: Back in 2019, I use to say EV have made a case of Hyperlocal (15 km radius from your house), today 2024 I am saying it is good city use and you are inching towards Mumbai-Pune but has to be complimented with decent Fast Charging station (1-2).

Why govt levies 28%gst on spares of evs and 5%on new evs. This is not done, for diys and repairs this is very injustice.

Let's accept, at this point, the electric car can never be one's primary and only car. You could use it for daily short or organized runs, but when it comes to long distance drives, the charging systems doesn't support. I would like owning one just for daily runs. I guess a plug in hybrid with real world range of 60-80km would be the best deal for now

Maybe the car industry should have started off with strong hybrids and slowly moved on to pure electric cars
