Abstract

Over the past few years, the global automotive sector has benefited greatly from electric vehicles. According to projections from 2020, there were over 12 million electric vehicles in use worldwide. China sold 90% of them, with Europe, the United States, and other nations following. In India, EV development is still in its infancy. In India, 3.8 lakh electric vehicles were sold in the 2019–20 year. Passenger vehicles generate the largest portion of EV sales in India, followed by commercial vehicles and two-wheelers. Numerous government policies and programmes, including FAME-India, NEMMP 2020, and many others, are mandated by the National Automotive Board, National Board for Electric Mobility, and National Council for Electric Mobility. This paper covers a review of Indian Scenario of Electric Vehicles, Statistics and different government policies associated with EV’s, in detail. Electric Vehicles, Indian EV Scenario, Government Policies, FAME-India, EVs in India.
