The fact that the running cost of Electric Vehicles (EVs) is cheaper compared to that of four-wheelers containing an Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) has led to a surge in electric automobiles in India.

1. Lower running costs
You save a lot of money on fuel because you don’t have to pay for gasoline or diesel to keep your EV operating. The cost to charge an electric car compared to the price of gas or diesel is substantially low. You can further lower your electricity costs by utilising sustainable energy sources such as solar.
2. Low maintenance costs
Because they have so many moving parts, gasoline and diesel cars require routine maintenance. That’s not the case with electric vehicles as they have substantially lesser moving parts. This means that your electric vehicle will most likely have lower long-term maintenance expenditures.
3. Tax and financial benefits
With India’s embrace of EVs, the government offers a variety of laws and incentives to encourage the use of such vehicles. For example, EVs have lower registration and road tax costs than ICE vehicles.
4. Better performance
EVs were once thought to be unfeasible. However, that has changed in recent years, with manufacturers providing well-designed and appealing EVs. Even the performance of EVs has improved for the better. Electric Vehicles are lighter in weight, and their acceleration is excellent compared to fuel-powered vehicles.
5. Zero tailpipe emissions
EVs have no exhaust emissions, which helps to lessen the carbon footprint. You may further lower your carbon impact by charging your EV with renewable energy.
6. Easy to drive and quiet
EVs are simple to drive because they have fewer moving components and simple controls. You can also charge such a car by plugging it into a public or home charging station. They are very silent, which helps to reduce the noise levels produced by fuel-powered cars.
7. Convenience of charging at home
There is no need to locate the nearest gas station to refuel. Charge your electric vehicle at home and get moving. With modern charging technologies, you may charge an EV quickly or even use battery swapping services to keep driving without worrying about conventional fuel availability.
8. No fuel, no emissions
EVs are simple to drive because they have fewer moving components and simple controls. You can also charge such a car by plugging it into a public or home charging station. They are very silent, which helps to reduce the noise levels produced by fuel-powered cars.
9. Spacious cabin and more storage
There is no need to locate the nearest gas station to refuel. Charge your electric vehicle at home and get moving. With modern charging technologies, you may charge an EV quickly or even use battery swapping services to keep driving without worrying about conventional fuel availability.
10. They are future proof
With some governments promising to gradually reduce their reliance on gasoline and diesel (fossil fuels), EVs are seen as a viable alternative.
