“…EVs have drawn the attention of India's policymakers as a clean technology alternative, improved air quality and CO 2 emissions mitigation in the long term (Kejun et al, 2021;Dhar et al, 2020). There was a target of having 400,000 passenger battery electric vehicles (BEVs) by the year 2020 to save as much as 120 million barrels of fossil fuel and almost four million tons of CO 2 from reducing vehicle emissions by 1.3% (Gujarathi et al, 2018).…”

“…There is a general lack of awareness and knowledge about EVs in India (Bansal and Agarwal, 2018). Despite being slow progress initially, there are expectations of a push after declaring the Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Hybrid and Electric Vehicles (FAME) Initiative (Gujarathi et al, 2018). Without providing clear and relevant information, EV adoption is challenging (Bansal and Agarwal, 2018).…”

“…Furthermore, the mutual relationship among the barriers in the adoption of EVs is a must for policy success (Sharma and Chandel, 2020). Social impact and the substantial positive or negative social impacts regarding the electric vehicle impact might overlook the social impact like reducing noise pollution, which can be positive or negative (Gujarathi et al, 2018). Some of the influences of EVs might even have social implications as byproducts, for example, social costs and child labour.…”

“…Open and constructive communication and awareness on electric vehicles (EVs') social sustainability can reduce regulators' burden to make the policy a success (Bhattacharyya and Thakre, 2020), promote awareness between users and the benefits of EVs (Bhat et al, 2017) and improve the air quality index and health of people alike (Biberman and Bajpai, 2020;Blah, 2016;Narain and Bell, 2016). Tyagi et al (2020a) reported that information and communication technology and community involvement are essential in regulating and coping mechanisms (Gujarathi et al, 2018). The Rio þ 20 highlighted the linkages between water, sustainable agriculture, sustainable cities, health, biodiversity and desertification (Painuly et al, 2020).…”

PurposeThe Electric Vehicles Initiative (EVI) is a multi-government policy forum devoted to speed up the introduction and adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) worldwide. EVI key themes for sustainable development include energy-efficient transportation with e-mobility (drive-by science and technology), reduced greenhouse gas emissions, decreased oil dependence and improved local air quality. India's transport sector contributes around 142 million tons of CO2 every year, with road transport contributing 123 million tons.Design/methodology/approachReview methodology forms a basis for knowledge development, creating guidelines for policy and practice. Quality assessment of review articles is by using mixed methods appraisal tool (MMAT).FindingsThe research trends on Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) technological and social aspects highlight the critical role of technology in economic and social development, emphasising infrastructure development and communication of government policy and rewards for awareness and end-user acceptance.Originality/valueThe scenario brings a school of thought if it is equally important to address a social perspective to improve India's perception and acceptance of technology-enabled EVs.

“…Costing of EV and PHEV available is very high for similar performance of IC engine vehicles. Infrastructure development is another challenge and it will take long time to go towards dominating electric car market [2]. Irrespective of development of advance fuel and alternative fuel technology, the dominating IC engine vehicles pollute the atmosphere.…”

Electrical vehicles (EVs) are gaining more attention due to its environmental friendly approach. However, growth is limited by consumer mindset and its high initial cost in developing countries. In a country like India, the majority of the vehicle running on the road are fossil fuel based and it does not comply with emission norms. Conversion of the conventional vehicle (CV) into the plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) is promising option to reduce environmental impact of present vehicles running on the road towards sustainable transportation. However, limited by conversion complexity and economics. The paper discusses costing trends of electric powertrain components and cost analysis for conversion. A diesel engine car converted to parallel PHEV is used for study with 70 bhp engine for 60 km range. In-depth cost analysis is presented for conversion. Two different scenarios are considered for calculation with a current and futuristic timeline and its implications are presented in detail.

Transportation systems worldwide heavily depend on fossil fuels, contributing to environmental issues, global emissions, and rising temperatures. Electric vehicles (EVs) offer a sustainable alternative to reduce carbon emissions. Countries, including the United States, China, Norway, and Germany, incentivize EV adoption to mitigate environmental and economic concerns. However, challenges such as limited range, extended charging times, infrastructure gaps, and higher upfront costs hinder widespread adoption. This study assesses EVs' technological advancements and reliability while analyzing India's incentives to promote their rapid adoption. A comparative analysis of India's EV policies with other nations has been presented, along with policy recommendations.
