Charging Infrastructure: Lack of charging stations has been a key concern for those wanting to buy electric vehicles, as that made them worried about the battery draining out, stalling the vehicle. While carmakers are awaiting details like the number of charging stations the government is aiming to set up, industry executives said the overall budget intent to encourage adoption of EVs, especially in the public transport segment, will help consumers switch to cleaner forms of mobility.

The country has a vision of expanding the share of electric vehicle sales to 30% in private cars, 70% in commercial vehicles, 40% in buses, and 80% in two-wheelers and three-wheelers by 2030

EV manufacturers say that these initiatives announced by the FM today demonstrate the government's intention to further accelerate EV adoption in the country and also generate significant employment opportunities for the youth.

Tata Motors: “The global case studies indicate that support for about 20% EV adoption is certainly helpful. It would be good if this is the case in India as well,” Balaje Rajan, Chief Strategy Officer, Tata Passenger Electric Mobility (TPEM), told ETAuto.

General Motors' auto dealers are urging the company to prioritize hybrid vehicles over electric vehicles (EVs) due to customer hesitancy and a slow EV market.
