Abstrakt: Urban areas account for around 70% of global GHG emissions, one-third of which is attributed to the transportation sector. Thus, decarbonising urban mobility is critical in the endeavours to mitigate climate change. Electric vehicles (EV) have potential to control global decarbonisation of transportation. India has air quality index of 141, which is amongst the highest in the world. Considering this troubling figure, government has initiated various schemes and initiative plans. This study reviews the progress and current status of EV adoption in India with regard to availability, manufacturing, charging infrastructure, commercial vehicle electrification and in-depth analysis of FAME-I and FAME-II schemes along with state level initiatives. This research explores the current state of EV adoption through the integrative perspective of financial resources, infrastructure and technology availability highlighting various complications. Based on these challenges, the study proposes points of improvment in each fragment such as policies, infrastructure,electricity demand and sustainable source of energy. A roadmap is recommended of primary factors that should be priortised for effective EV adoption. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
