'EV last-mile segment grows rapidly in cargo and passenger areas'

Can you share your perspective on the current market trends for EVs in India, particularly in the last-mile segment?

The EV last mile segment has been growing at a very fast pace in both cargo and passenger segments. The penetration of EV in the organised last-mile segment is currently at 24%, which was 18% last year, 6% in 2021–22 and only 1% in 2020–21. Apart from the FAME subsidy and some government initiatives to promote EVs, the economic benefits of using EVs, as compared to their ICE counterparts, are now felt by the user. A diesel three-wheeler has an operating cost of ₹3.5–₹4/km, while an EV three-wheeler operates at 92p/km.
