The adoption of electric vehicles (EV) and artificial advancements in technology, intelligence (AI), and the Internet of Things (IoT) has pushed car brands to develop 'Connected and Autonomous Vehicles' that MG Motor has pioneered in India. Since then, the journey of connected vehicles has picked up the pace and EVs are showing encouraging signs of adoption. Honourable Road Transport and Highways Minister Shri Nitin Gadkari outlined more than 18 lakh electric vehicles have been registered in the country. This number is expected to grow almost three times to 50 lakh units by 2030. Electric Vehicles have been recognized as the preferred sustainable mobility platform to overcome metro cities' traffic woes and curb pollution to some extent. EVs will help India reach its 2070 zero carbon emission objective. To combat the climate crisis, accelerated EV adoption is crucial and will be a game changer in multiple ways and make the places we live in much healthier.
The brands aiming to play their part in championing climate change action include:
