The Challenge ahead

India‘s electric auto industry is really very small. The only manufacturer in India that produces EV is Mahindra REVA. There are a few makers in the two wheeler segment.

The biggest challenge to the manufacturers is to convince an Indian consumer to pay a premium to go electric.

On the other hand, the biggest challenge to the government will be to provide the necessary infrastructure to support EVs like charging stations that are spread across the country.
