We have already started looking at how we can generate infrastructure (like retail and service points) for this. According to the website of Hyundai USA, Ioniq electric has an estimated range of 124 miles on a single full charge, which roughly translates to 199km. This is more than what any of the electric vehicles currently plying on Indian roads have to offer. It will be difficult to offer electric vehicles on the rural side; but in city areas, it is possible to establish charging stations at some points. Maruti Suzuki is at present conducting a survey to gauge customer expectations from electric vehicles.
