Abstract
Over the last few years, the prospect of a rapid rise in global temperature and air pollution has created concerns (about global warming, health issues) and the need to reduce the use of fossil fuels and the associated emissions. Vehicle emissions and Green-House Gases (GHGs) can have adverse impacts on health (such as cardiopulmonary diseases), environmental damage, and contribution to global warming. Road transport is one of the major contributors to the growing air quality problems in Indian cities. There is a need for greener or alternative vehicle technologies to address the vehicle emissions issue. So, researchers are focused on developing alternative technologies such as hybrid electric, electric, fuel cell, and plug-in vehicles. Hence the necessity of Electric Vehicles (EVs) has been realized because of their substantial advantages over conventional Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) vehicles.
