Unveiling the Rising Demand of Electric Vehicles in India Following Standards and Guidelines

Electric vehicles (EVs) are automobiles propelled by electricity and an electric motor as opposed to a typical internal combustion (IC) engine that burns fuel. Electric bikes and scooters are becoming increasingly popular due to their accessibility and cost, opening up an opportunity for micromobility. Because they require no fuels, had fewer components that move to maintain, and have minimal running costs, EVs are especially good for the planet's health. Lithium-ion batteries are now regarded to represent the norm in the industry due to their extended longevity, excellent power preservation, and a minimal rate of self-discharge which averages only 5% per each month, even though some EVs used lead acid or nickel metal hydride batteries. Although efforts are being made to make these batteries more dependable, there are still problems with them since thermal overrun is a likelihood, which has, for example, resulted in bursts or wildfires in the instance of the Tesla Model S. EVs are still not commonly used, despite the fact that they have tremendous future prospects. Some of the causes are also fairly grave. The civilization must gradually come to terms with new, ineffective technology and all of its ramifications. Driving an EV entails: 1) Changing the fueling routine; 2) Being ready to identify alternate transportation if the battery runs out; and 3) Changing driving style. The different EVs that are currently on the market, charging techniques, standards, and regulations set forth by the Indian government are all covered in this study.
