Yes, it's right time for India to develop EV as we all know Price of petrol and diesel is increasing day by day and we have no control on it so why to depend on other countries, Develop EV station to charge it and India is surplus in electricity and solar energy. It will make us get rid of pollution, noise and global warming etc.

India is preparing for electric vehicles. It has been said that by 2030, 30% of the vehicles running on the road will be electric vehicles. Electric vehicles will help in reducing pollution, oil bill that the country has and generating employment. Though the infrastructure required for these vehicles is still being made like charging stations. Since, this is a new project so the cost is very high. Government has launched a scheme called FAME to allow subsidy on various things required for EVs. So, the country not yet ready but is preparing for EVs.

Ofcourse, India is ready for electrical vehicles. They may be costly but the main advantage is that there will be no pollution as compared to vehicles that runs on fuel. Due to pollution we have health problems, climate change problems etc. Most important thing is to save this earth from this dangerous effect of pollution, for that we need to introduce electrical vehicles.

Hellow friends, I'm Shubam.

In my opinion, it is right to say that still, India is not ready for accepting EV. As we know all vehicles like needs fuel anyhow after a certain required time. With fuel vehicles are nothing. In case of gasoline vehicles or gas vehicles, there are petrol pumps or Gas pumps (usually LPG) Is available within Kilometers. But for electric vehicles here is nothing not at all. No charging points are available to expect at our homes. If in case we maintain this, then definitely we say that India is ready for Electric vehicles Otherwise it is like as "SHIP WITHOUT RUDDER".

I think India need a high performance electric vehicles as here in India vehicles having off-road feature is very essential, as we all are aware of roads here. So, I think we just not need a simple electric vehicle but at the same time, we need an e-car not to show off other. We need it to make our life reliable.

EV, as we know will help a lot in reducing pollution but they are costly & not soo speedy.

Every one requires speed for reaching there destination point earlier. And rich people are not going to drive these vehicles. Poor will do & they don't have much money for it. So when the drawbacks will be removed I think on that point India will be ready for electric vehicles.

In my opinion, India is not ready for using electronic vehicles yet. Bcs road is not in a proper condition to use ev. And maintance is also difficult. Cost is also too much hight which is not affordable for everyone. And even if you want to go long digstance. So petrol is easly available. But 6 and 7-hour charging totally difficult for us.

NITI AAYOG is mulling over giving a target to state public transporters to deploy a certain percentage of electric vehicles in their new orders, while it will refrain from coming out with a policy on electric vehicles.

As per an estimate, India at present has 1 to 1.5 lakh electric vehicles and it is projected to grow to about 5 per cent of the total vehicles in the next five years. Of the about 24 million vehicles sold in India in 2017-18, electric vehicles accounted for barely about 1 per cent.

Indian govt sets the deadline for all internal combustion engine by 2030.

Energy Efficiency Services Limited (EESL) and the government has decided to procure electric cars from manufacturers in India and make them available.

Mahindra was already launched e20plus and eVerito in India.

According to my point of view.

India is not ready to EVs right now. Because of the cost & certain limitations in transport system. As the cost is high of EVs, people are not aware about the same. The launching models of EVs need to do some improvement for better performance. As we can travel with petrol /diesel vehicle as long much we can due to easy process of filling petrol n diesel while on other side we can't go more than 250 km in single charging time was almost 6-7 hrs even if we replace the batteries the cost and weight of vehicles will goes on increasing.
