Unlike the US and other major countries, the EV revolution in India is being driven by electric CVs and two-wheelers. Electric two-wheelers form a major part of India's EV market and despite being projected as the future of mobility and more viable, economic and environmentally friendly alternatives, recurring instances of electric two-wheeler fires raise significant safety questions, including safety standards for these electric two-wheelers. Many people are afraid of these fire incidents and are retreating from buying EVs.
