Challenges and Regulations Shaping India's Electric Vehicle Adoption
India's electric vehicle (EV) sector faces key challenges and regulatory considerations. Maintaining a 60 kg weight limit for low-speed electric two-wheelers is seen as vital for safety and preventing misuse, as weight is a physical safeguard unlike software-controlled speed limits. Meanwhile, broader EV adoption depends on improving roadside assistance, reliable charging infrastructure, and skilled service support, especially beyond major cities, to build consumer confidence and practicality for mass-market use.
