In recent years, the Indian automotive industry has been able to present numerous innovations and is on the upswing.

Many countries promote the production of electric cars and provide incentives for both manufacturers and customers. The technology for electric vehicles is constantly evolving, especially the capacity of the battery and range could be increased. In addition, the necessary infrastructure of the power grid and charging stations must be present in order to be able to charge the vehicles anytime, anywhere. The demand for electric vehicles needs to be boosted. According to McKinsey, the current high price of alternative drive vehicles is one of the main reasons for the reluctance of potential buyers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
