With the government keen to unleash the EV movement in India, mild hybrid solutions with 48V architecture can be a promising alternative, says Sharath Tengse

Ampere Electric, a wholly-owned electric mobility subsidiary of Greaves Cotton Ltd, strengthens its performance range of E Scooters with a renewed focus on shared and rental electric mobility solutions.

It is expected that the shift towards the EVs will be a gradual process. Maintaining engine efficiency in the ICE vehicles will help to bring a change by reducing emissions on a larger scale.

A number of governments around the world have actively encouraged use of auto LPG in recognition of its environmental benefits, as well as its inherent practical and cost advantages over conventional and other alternative fuels.

Following the Paris agreement in 2015, India announced its commitment to reduce its emission intensity by 2030.

To tackle the problem of poor air quality, the Government of India is focusing on a long term solution of electrification of transportation.

In November 2019, Tata Motors opened a futuristic tech center at the Engineering Research Center (ERC) Pune for testing and developing new cutting-edge powertrain solutions for all its products.

Hyundai Motor India Ltd. (HMIL), India’s first smart mobility solutions provider and one of the largest exporter, recently revealed their powertrain options of its new sedan, Hyundai AURA.

Not only is the singular pursuit of electric vehicles (EVs) riddled with uncertainties, it also comes at the cost of other viable alternative fuels like auto LPG which can be rolled out much faster and with more immediate results, writes Suyash Gupta.
