🚨 Are EV chargers really being banned in Gurugram societies over Fire NOCs? There has been a lot of panic lately about RWAs denying permissions and removing chargers. We investigated the ground reality to separate fact from fiction, and here is what we actually found: ⚡ If you own an EV, are planning to buy one, or live in Gurugram, you need to know this. Please forward this to your RWA and society WhatsApp groups to clear the confusion and help the EV community!
⚡86,598 @Tataev Nexon EVs registered in India between 2020-2025. (Excluding Telangana) That's 37.8% of every Tata EV ever sold. One car. Five generations. One near-death in 2024.🚗 The full story, told through verified Vahan data 👇 evelectree.com/article/the-ne…

Wrote to CM @siddaramaiah, urging withdrawal of the lifetime tax on EVs - a regressive move against citizen interests and clean mobility. The current global scenario underscores the urgent need to reduce dependence on fossil fuels. India under PM Modi Ji is committed to achieving Net- Zero, yet Karnataka is discouraging EV adoption - a move contrary to national priorities. While states across India are taking steps to promote electric mobility, Karnataka has imposed this tax - simply to extract ₹250 crore from the people to fund the Bankruptcy of the State. Progressive states like Delhi are offering 100% road tax waivers for electric cars below ₹30 lakh and incentivising electric goods vehicles, while Karnataka under the Congress, is moving in the opposite direction. This is not governance. This is regression. #KhaliTrunkSarkara #CongressFailsKarnataka
An outstanding analysis by @ferrarirules86. 👏👏 Fascinating insights into the powertrain mix which is increasingly being defined by regulations & company strategy and not just customer preference
⚡️ The fossil fuel era is ending faster than anyone predicted. 📉 We analyzed the last 8 years of Indian auto data. The tipping point is here. A deep dive into the massive CNG and EV fuel shift taking over the market. 🧵👇 🔗 evelectree.com/article/india-… ➡️Please read through the🧵for each OEM's stats
⚡️Delhi draft EV policy for 2026-2030 is out. ⚡️While some states try to make money from EVs, Delhi is going all in on EVs Salient points ⚡️₹1,00,000 scrappage benefit for EV 4W for first 1,00,000 buyers ⚡️RTO waiver 100% for EVs and 50% for Strong Hybrids for vehicles up to ₹30,00,000 ⚡️2W to get maximum ₹30,000 subsidy and 3W to get maximum ₹50,000 subsidy (Details in images) ⚡️All new government vehicles will be EVs only ➡️ The government is asking for feedback on the policy for the next 30 days. Feedback can be submitted to evpolicy2026@gmail.com Policy link - transport.delhi.gov.in/sites/default/…
The ongoing West Asia crisis is an important warning on India’s energy dashboard. India imports over 87% of its crude oil requirements. This crisis can be a huge opportunity. A five-point agenda, comprising 100% electrification of two- and three-wheelers by 2030, CAFE-3, electrification of buses and trucks, a Right to Charge, and a Bharat battery ecosystem, is what the country needs right now. These measures must move together. Delivering transformational change at scale is not new to India. It has done so before: Jan Dhan Yojana, UPI, solar energy, vaccination, and the shift from Euro IV to Euro VI while bypassing Euro V, among others. What is needed now is a similar level of clarity and execution in the EV transition. Today’s decisive action will shape supply chains, capital flows, and technological leadership for decades to come. My edit piece in today’s HT:
Short 286 km drive in a day. Started with 91% SOC and ended at 15%. (146 Wh/km) AC running 90% of time at 24 degrees, speed 2. Bonus : No coal was harmed while making the electricity. (Fully charged from off-grid solar).

Almost 4000Km trip of south India. Including high ranges of Ooty kodaikanal and farthest south point Rameshwaram. Descending the ghats in ooty gave around 15% charge back. Longest single day stretch was 660kms. @Tataev @Xroaders_001 @TeslaClubIN @TataMotors_Cars @rushlane
While both IP67 and IP68 ratings ensure complete dust-tightness, the distinction in water submersion capabilities—temporary versus continuous—is critical for high-voltage EV components. evreporter.com/ip67-vs-ip68-i… The article also highlights material selection, real-world challenges and why engineering teams should evaluate factors beyond the initial IP rating.
No promotion. Changed my Nexon EV car all 4 tyre recently. Used @TyresnmoreIndia to order online and get replaced. Smooth service, cheaper price compared to offline store. @volklub @evelectree @AsheeshAroraEV @Tataev .
Celebrating a double win. XEV 9e takes home Car of the Year & EV of the Year at Auto9 Awards. @TV9Bharatvarsh #UnlimitLove #UnlimitIndia #MahindraElectricOriginSUVs #XEV9e
