[@tonyxavier6509]

The real reason why most consumers would buy an EV is not because it is environment friendly, but because 1. It has better acceleration which you could dream only in sports cars 2. It is less noisy and has less vibration. You would never want to step into a diesel car again. 3. Cost of maintenance and operation is low Only thing to change is a little more reduction in purchase cost and availability of many more options. That's happening sooner than anyone expected.

Ya, very true it is.. 💯 Around 70 - 75% of world's EV batteries are manufactured in China only. 12% by US, rest 13% by Europe & rest of the world. 7 out of 10 world's EV battery manufacturers are from China (among these 7 mostly dominated by 2 top Lithium battery producers CATL & BYD).

Ev is not about energy saving, it's about artificial intelligence in Driving and the environment of home and car connection.

[@mohitwahane1847]

That was all I needed. Keep makin such informational videos.

[@planb1635]

The most used EV battery today, LFP have neither Cobalt nor Nickel. The place where India lags behind China in EV is battery and charging tech. TATA cars are fine but their claimed range (which itself are low) are far from their real life range. And takes an hour to charge 60% in fast charger while chinese car does that in 15 min.

[@jackytang3683]

Artificial intelligence driving is also important for today's EAv

instead of battery's,we should go flex /hydrogen/etc. climate has big role to, india is not cold but tropical

[@briansiev15]

how to produce hydrogen without using fossil fuel?

[@alokranjan2260]

solar or hydro power or cng or any natural gas @@briansiev15

[@blueeyes6192]

toyota went down the hydrogen path it failed miserably . Do your research .

[@yakshaprashnalu1881]

Excellent team, good efforts Ganesh anna❤

[@Kalyan16dev]

Excellent. But, you should cover Hydrogen Vehicle story as well. Ambani bought a Hydrogen production company in Australia...whats the geographical projection in that case..

[@ThinkSchool]

Will do soon :)

[@eleswararaomylangam2806]

You are legendary communicator with excellent informative videos. I love your channel.

[@vijayrangarajanramakrishna318]

I don't understand what is so surprising and astonishing in that...China started EV adoption as a state wide policy after its infamous air pollution caught headlines worldwide especially after its grand Olympics event...Being ambitious and a emerging, aspiring superpower it was only imperative to work in that direction in the interest of its large population of 1.4 billion people...Australia, Chile , Argentina have no human population as chunk of humanity lies in India , China and Europe!!...Now that US has thrown its marketing and hype around EV and all these China conspiracy theories start to emerge🤦‍♂️...Suddenly EV trend has become aspirational and high social status symbol....Nobody had stopped India or US to catch up early in the EV race...It's better for the planet!!❤❤

[@willengel2458]

never forget, pollution and environmental degradation are part of industrialization. China had planned for that years ago. when they're ready to move up the economic food chain. they started to cleanup their environment and offshored some labor intensive and environmental unfriendly factories elsewhere. they raised their workers wages four fold so the workers can afford what they produced.

[@mrpatil507]

Agree

[@KD003India]

You are doing an amazing job! Keep it up

[@shivamp1022]

Amazing video, it would be interesting to see how upcoming geopolitics would play out considering that China's leverage is already to a point that has a very promising future.

[@Yogesh_Karamchandani]

I've always enjoyed watching your videos; each one is as excellent as the other. The depth with which you cover the topics is commendable.

[@harshitmishra246]

One thing you missed about it is Battery technology. BYD with its bladeless technology is far ahead of all other companies. They have even released a car with Sodium ion battery. If Sodium ion becomes commercial success the whole value chain would change. Sodium is cheaper and more abundant and mining sodium produces less emission and does less environmental degradation. Unlike Litium, Sodium batteries need lesser rare earth metal too.

[@anirudhkansara]

Thank you for summarising useful information for everyone, one thing which was missing according to me is the comparison on life/age of the vehicle between the EVs and ICEVs.

[@ChakravarthiT]

😇😇🤗 China is in very much in the dominating role in the world's EV market, both in batteries manufacturing and EV cars market size too. Around 70 - 75% of world's EV batteries are manufactured in China only. 12% by US, rest 13% by Europe & rest of the world. 7 out of 10 world's EV battery manufacturers are from China (among these 7 mostly dominated by 2 top Lithium battery producers CATL & BYD). In the rest, 2 are from South Korea(LG & Samsung) & 1 from Japan (Panasonic). Not only that, in Lithium mining too around 51% of world's Lithium mines are reserved by China only (ie., Lithium mines in Australia, Chile, Bolivia & Argentina). That is the dominance of China in the EV domain. 🤗 India is no where in the EV picture at all..🙄🙄🙄

[@surendratadikamalla3633]

Great video as usual and am like attending high level business school classes Thanks for great content and explanation

[@nitingopal7929]

Credits should be given to China, they bought those cobalt fields in DRC 20 years back. With this much control on EV market I guess atleast 50 trillion dollars will be easily added to China's economy in the next 75 years just by this one industry (or sector)

[@Golfin-s1u]

As early as in 1992, Qian Xuesen proposed to the premier to skip fuel vehicles and develop electric vehicles, which is an opportunity for the Chinese people to create a new era of automobiles. Who is Qian Xuesen? The best scientist recognized by the Chinese people.

[@AshishBagade-hv4el]

no no its not 50 trillion but around 4-5 trillion :)

[@ishitasingh563]

Super helpful!! You just helped me formulate a comprehensive answer for my UPSC preparation! Thanks so much :)

[@udayrparmar8046]

Sodium batteries ( solid state ) will be a big game changer. Its stable ; takes less charging time ; has more range ; & its abundantly available.

[@richardfortier226]

Guess who dominate sodium batteries technology. Still China. Chinese are just so good at such things.

[@charlesthomson3609]

Great review of the industry. Please include in any future episode the replacement cost of batteries in cars and the issue of batteries becoming flamable. These two issues are need to be resolved quickly, nothing worse than seeing ones home being burnt down because of defective battery.

[@nmew6926]

The Superpowers are those who are in the forefront of the 5th industrial revolution. India have already missed it. India has to wait for the 6th industrial revolution may be in 100 years

If you compare 10 years back India was nowhere in any race with China. But now people have started comparing India with China. Here comes the revolution. Hope Congress comes back and we will stop comparing with China and will comapre with Somalia😂

Please do an episode on freebie vs welfarism, what is the line that demarcates it , how is it bad/good.Thanks

[@simonpannett8810]

Also depends on Governments supporting a transition. China started this 20 years ago and has the Worlds largest Car Market. Plans for huge increase in Coal Electricity in India is very worrying!! Where is the support of the transition??

[@nissarahmed8852]

Excellent video but hope that you cover the flip side of the story in a future video 1) charging challenges in India and internationally 2) a glance into recent declining sales of EVs in the US 3) not sure if life time cost of EVs are cash flow discounted, but even if lower lifetime costs of EVs are true if there is a mismatch of the timing of cash flows EVs might still not be viable to a business 4) no mention of hybrids vehicle being a bridge to EV adoption

[@shresthsonkar9207]

EV sales are declining in usa because many new ev’s and facelift of existing ev’s (example tesla model 3) are coming up which is why people are waiting for those Similarly, in anticipation of cybertruck, f150 and Rivian sales declined. Along with that, usa is undergoing a monumental charging infrastructure shift wherein tesla is opening super chargers to non teslas as well This move though, is brand dependent-ie it’s upto the brand to make their ev’s compatible with the tesla chargers Since some brands have already made the jump, the people who were looking to buy these nom tesla ev’s are waiting so that they don’t have to buy an EV with outdated charger port By next year the companies which have tied up with tesla will have shifted to NACS which is when people will start being comfortable buying them

[@chundrusatyanarayana3161]

Lithium can be replaced with Sodium which very abundant in India in the form of table salt but we need to comprise little bit on energy density. Moreover Sodium is more stable at higher temperatures which is crucial in tropical climate nations like India.In my view hydrogen (Green hydrogen) coupled with solar energy works better for India.

[@AdityaKumar-uf8zp]

I dont have much knowledge of science but I think sodium is heavier as compared to lithium meaning heavier batteries leading to excess drag in the vehicle.

[@abhay8424]

Sodium is much more heavier than Lithium, so that might create problems

[@morganangel340]

@@AdityaKumar-uf8zp there is about 2-3 kg of lithium in the entire battery pack. Even if is sodium is 10x heavier, it will weight like 20-30 kg more from a 400-600kg battery. (sodium is just 3x times heavier)

[@ashayadav664]

​@@morganangel340 May be it's heavy like four Times of lithium ( if it's is )but what if it's cheaper than lithium and we have abundance so we don't have to depend on any country and this is more helpful for us Like we take an example - 1kg lithium is of 1400+ and have mass production of sodium and we can get it less than 300 rs per kg but now it is of 325-350rs per kilogram so it's like four times cheaper than sodium and can have same energy that an lithium have in it in 1 kg so if we make a battery of 10kg of lithium we have to pay 14,000 and if it's of sodium it's only 3,500rs. And if the capacity of sodium is 160W-H/kg and lithium have 200W-H/kg ( both are average they lies in 160-200 and 200-250) so if we have to gain energy of 2000W-h/kg we have to pay 14,000rs in (10 kg of lithium) And if it's sodium than it's 2000W-H/kg in 4,375rs in (12.5 kg of sodium) Data given by Google if someone want to check please verify from Google Quora and other sources... And I am not an professional this is just I typed I get from the knowledge of EVs What I know about them So ignore all mistakes and get the facts 😅.....😊

Again brilliant case study. In the long run Indian vehicle scenario will be of two types of vehicles, a) heavy Vehicles like trucks , buses, Suvs will run on Hydrogen powered vehicles for long distances like 500-600 kms b) Electric vehicles will be used for daily commute. (50-100kms).
