Do Electric vehicles have short-range driving?

What is the Range of Electric Vehicle?

One of the most common yet important questions that pop out when we talk about electric vehicles is range. What is the range of an electric vehicle? How far can electric vehicles travel? Where do I charge my vehicle up again and how long will it take? Do electric vehicles have a short-range? When you switch to an electric vehicle, you can simply charge it up during a short break at a charging station.

Typically the range of a Battery Electric Vehicle is about 100-150 km, so because most vehicles travel about 35-70 km a day, the BEV may be a smart choice.

Before making a purchase, car buyers weigh many considerations — including convenience, design, and performance. If they were truthful and practical on how fast they 're driven, a plurality of customers willing to purchase electric vehicles will choose battery-powered cars that can drive fewer than 100 miles on a single charge, new research shows.

Development in the infrastructure inspires consumers to choose electric vehicles of short-range for their daily needs.

Different electric vehicles (EVs) will cover various distances (or 'ranges') after recharging, so it's crucial to pick the one that better fits your driving requirements. The way you drive and the road conditions impact an EV spectrum as well.

Factors that reduce the electric vehicle range:

The distance the EV will go before having a recharge can be reduced by: 

Rough driving

Long road climbs

Non-stop elevated speeds (e.g. on a highway) 

Heavy headwinds 

Additional weight (e.g. three passengers and luggage) 

Reduction of storage power (the volume of energy the vehicle will supply) 

Increased utilization of the air conditioner.

CRE Motors and Hybrid Electric Vehicles:

At CRE motors we make use of Hybrid Electric Vehicle or (rechargeable) cars is a combination of a traditional combustion engine and a battery that can be plugged into an outlet to charge before driving. Hybrid electric vehicles range can cover kilometers functioning as a 100% electric car, offering a smooth ride. 

Even when the battery is empty, the rechargeable hybrid car functions by recovering energy during slowing down and braking while the electric motor continues to boost the combustion engine when accelerating or starting the car. 

Even with an empty battery, hybrid cars release less CO2 than traditional combustion engine vehicles. Hybrid Electric Vehicle(HEV) has the benefits of being able to function in 100% electric mode for everyday trips while also being able to cover hundreds of kilometers in hybrid mode.

Some Tips to Go An extra mile on Electric Vehicles:

1. Eco-driving strategies are deliberately implemented to expand their ability. These involve sticking to a modest pace, preventing "fast launch" and optimizing regenerative braking by coasting where possible.

2. The bigger the vehicle, the more power it requires per kilometer. Just make sure that you don't have your trunk jammed with stuff that you don't use too much.

3. Try not to keep the car idle at 100% charge over longer stretches (more than 8 hours). In reality, leaving the battery almost or completely charged would adversely affect overall battery life.

4. Planning ahead adequate room on cold days to have your Electric Vehicles plugged in until warming up. This would indicate that when you reach the lane, you can get more battery power.

Many  Models have a range of up to around 300 miles on a fully charged battery and a luxurious car price to boot, although most versions of electric vehicles will go no more than 100 miles on a single charge. The recent study shows that most consumers should consider the range of 100-miles or less sufficient to satisfy their everyday driving needs, despite the battery costs now and in the expected immediate future.

Future Of Electric Vehicles In India

Future of electric vehicles in India:

Electric vehicles in India have opened ample business opportunities for automobile companies within the country and across the globe. The Indian automobile industry is one of the biggest industries in the world with a total amount of 46 crore vehicles. Pollution conditions in India are going worse, so the Government of India has decided to make India a 100% EV nation by 2030. 

The target is way too ambitious. Even with high investments, state policies and incentives, industry stalwarts explain that India still has a long way to go.

In terms of EV connectivity, Norway has 22 %, China has 2 % and India has only .02 %. For us to talk about full connectivity by 2030 is perhaps too ambitious but 20 % by 2030 is a realistic target.

The demand for electric vehicles is increasing at a much faster rate than ever, it seems the future of electric vehicles in India is going to be superb.

Highlights:

The Indian Government has decided to make India a 100% Electric Vehicle nation by 2030.

Electric vehicles will very soon run at the cost of around 20 to 30 paise per km and can easily attain a top speed of 150km per hour.

Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has decided to transfer its Ev battery technology to domestic EV manufacturers, due to this cost of EV will be cut up to 35%.

In the near future, electric vehicles will have a mileage of 700-800 Km per charge.

The government had launched the FAME India scheme way back in 2015 offering incentives on electric and hybrid electric vehicles of up to Rs 29,000 for bikes and Rs 1.38 lakh for cars

Govt. Initiatives for Electric Vehicles

Today, EV is one of the biggest opportunities that we have in India.

Indian Government plans to shift completely to zero-emission cars by 2030. India is witnessing the shift to electric mobility in par with the rest of the world. The sales of the zero-emission vehicles in India have been menial until now but with the government providing subsidies under the FAME scheme and improving charging infrastructure in various cities, the manufacturers are gearing up for the electric revolution. 

This scheme is aimed at incentivizing all vehicle segments i.e. 2 wheeler, 3 wheeler auto, passenger 4 wheeler vehicle, light commercial vehicles, and buses. Under this scheme, about 99,000 hybrid/electric vehicles (xEVs) have been given direct support by way of demand incentives. The government has also approved pilot projects, charging infrastructure projects, and technological development projects aggregating to nearly 24 million dollars.

The future of mobility is clean and sustainable and it is only a matter of time that India makes a bigger splash in the global green mobility market. The World Economic Forum and Ola Electric highlighted that the Indian automobile industry is one of the fastest-growing markets globally, but it still just makes up 0.5% of the global Electric Vehicle market.

Sale of electric vehicles in India grew by 20% at 156,000 units in fiscal 2020 led largely by two-wheelers that form the bulk of the nascent industry. Electric two-wheelers sales stood at 152,000 units during the fiscal registering a 20.7% growth over last year. Electric cars accounted for 3,400 units a marginal decline from 3600 units of last year while bus sales were 600 units against 400 units in 2018-19.

The latest tender released by the government to acquire 10,000 electric vehicles was bagged by Tata Motors and Mahindra & Mahindra. Maruti Suzuki felt left out as the company does not have even a single electric or hybrid vehicle in its lineup. Suzuki recently tied up with Toyota to manufacture electric vehicles in the nation.

Giants in the Electric vehicle industry such as Tesla & startups like CRE motors are making their way to India. These companies are interested in two & four wheelers electric vehicle markets. CRE Motors has set up a plan of 14% share acquisition in the Indian market and it also has 2% shares in the Mexico market. 

In the last two years, there has been a significant development in the electric vehicle space in India with both two-wheeler and four-wheeler launches from automobile giants, local players, and startups alike.
