Here are Top 5 Problems from Real World scenario about EV Cars. Know what issues can a consumer face in terms of buying an Electric Car with detailed insights
The information is 100% true,an eye opener information for all citizens. Need to be consider the above information before blindly going for EVs . Thanks ....
Agar India computer ko 19's main adopt Nehi karta ye soch ke ki computer ane se bohot job chale jayei to ajj world main market leader Nehi raheta IT sector mai ....ev car hi future hai infrastructure ek din mai hi Nehi banta time lagta hai india developing country hai ye bhi dhyan rakhna chahiye America jesa infrastructure Nehi hai ev ko promote karna chahiye naki sirf galtiya nikalo china ko dekho agar waha ka log sirf criticise karte to ajj world Mai ev manufacturing hub Nehi hota...aur battery k bare mai jyadatar information is video main galat bataya gaya hai itna subscriber hone k bad misinformation fela raha hai
@@anonymous_0731 just because you disagree and are offended its misinformation? if you have money you buy evs and be the tester for these half assed expensive death traps.
Good analysis. Meticulously covered all the important points related to ev cars.You rightly said about electricity unit price future increase by any reason whatsoever like CNG price is disappointing, alarming and disgusting. Alternate fuel price should always be considerably lower than conventional fuel. Like the way you present the things. Great work. All praises 👍
I have been an EV owner for the past 5 months after thorough consultation with Gagan sir. I am primarily a big city driver in B2B traffic. And with experience, here are my inputs on the 5 points: 1. Range anxiety Yes, it exists and there's no denial to it. Doesn't the same exist in ICE? If the fuel reading nears zero, it will make you rush to the nearest pump, wait in long queues and sometime fill them up in bottles due to poor planning. I can rest assured without worrying a petrol pump closure late at night or because of strike, as I can charge anytime at home. Another big anxiety for ICE owners is "fuel price anxiety" that becomes talk of the nation every so often. A jump of 25 paise makes everyone jump, doesn't happen that with EV. 2. Battery Yes, it's a major cost consuming factor. And like all things electric, this also needs proper care to be used. And so do ICE vehicles. Most EV batteries come with 8 years warranty, way above the standard 1 year on ICE engine (extendible to 3 years) or 1.5 lakh kms, which is again more than ICE. And call it to protect battery or what, EVs are very robustly build and safe in a casing that protects it even in cases of full frontal collision. How many ICE cars boast that? 3. Leg room Yes, it's average. I have a sub 4 meter car, and rarely does a car give comfortable long time seating in this range. Precisely why on a long drive, one should get off for an hour while your legs rest and car gets charged ;) 4. Go green Earth metals do contribute to pollution, and so does any extraction from earth: be it metals for engine, and it is well known that fossil fuels are the biggest contributors to pollution. I used to be very sceptical, but Gaggan sir helped me take a stand in my early days. It is disappointing to see this video as the tone it sets is very incorrect. Elsewhere in the comments I read about India's early acceptance to computers, and it presents an excellent opportunity to why we should embrace the new tech and be its leaders. Elon isn't the richest without a reason. And personally, no ICE trade off can match the peace of ownership, calm of driving and joy of silence I get with an EV.
@@shibooster Awareness should be very neutral. I have problems with the tone used in this video. It'd have been better had there been balanced nuances between the two whereas one is vilified here.
Your this and all other videos and points are very practical, logical and unbiased and really help consumers like us. Great job, Gagan bhai and Keep it up!
Another point to add in the battery section. Li-batteries charging and charge holding capacities decrease over time so expect reduced mileage within a few years...
Whenever I see notifications from this channel I never skip it...coz I know I will get to learn something knew always..I personally Benefited from it with my tata Tiago..Great going..keep it up
I think you have done the best analysis on Electric car till date. A person will be able to decide on buying an electric car with an open mind. Wonderful analysis, hat's off to you. Namaskar 🙏
Most EV cars are atleast 4-5 lakh more than their ICE counterparts. Even if a car is planned for usage for 10 years and average cost of fuel is 5 k per month it’s 8 lakh for 10 years with inflation. The electricity cost with inflation would be 2 lakh and cell repair cost to be around 1 lakh for 10 years. So there wouldn’t be any added advantage in terms of saving money. But there is always a positive feeling of going eco friendly and zero carbon emissions atleast in the cities even though non-renewable coal is burnt elsewhere. Switching more towards renewable sources of energy like Solar or hydro would be good if done by the Govts.
The fun of driving an ev is worth all the cons u described. And on changing anything in the car the main battery does not get loaded . There is a seperate 12v battery just like in ice cars which takes the load.. And the insurance company does pay for the battery.. there was an incident in Chennai where battery got spoilt due to water ingress and insurance company covered the cost of repair . Range anxiety is only when u don't plan a long trip.. the question here is how often do u plan a long trip and how long do u travel... So choose a car accordingly... Thanks.
Thank you Sir. Ur just perfect in all the things related to auto industry. Ur main moto the customer should never be under loss at any point of time. 🙏
In Mumbai like metropolitan cities, parking is a big issue. So to charge car overnight also may cause major concerns. EV batteries recycle issue should be sorted out on war footings. Otherwise it may hamper environmental situation.
Excellent presentation Sir, every thing very minutely explained. I live abroad and am in India for 2/3 months in a year. I want to purchase a car for use during this period.The car shall remain unused for the remaining period. kindly advise whether I should purchase an electric or petrol one?
simple answer :: The first smartphones were too costly and less features with charge issues, but people bought it.. Now we have smart phones @ budget price with specs... Petrol - Diesel are coming to an end, the future is Electric cars... So, just like the first smart phones, first Gen EVs are here... : Who can buy the first gen EVs now? 1) There are people who buy automatics of creta, seltos etc for city use, their daily avg drive is below 250 kms. They goes long in very rate situations, for them for that same price Nexon EV will give double performance with savings , just 50 km per day can save 12 Lakhs in fuel cost within 8 years 2) Battery replacement is in 2030 * 8 year warranty, by that time we can have replacements for battery @ good price, whereas the present petrol - diesel cars we buy now will be struggling with fuel price and global air pollusion. 3) TATA comes with Li Phosphate batteries, (others not) these batteries last extra long. It wil llast more than 10 years. 4) EV cars are the best in class automatics way ahead than DCTs, + savings in every km.. Drive it once..And decide.
Brother on what point you are justified Nexon evs are best?. Let me explain to you that I handled transport in a reputed company where they procured Nexon latest high end evs, at first glance it use to give a range of 329 to 300km for first 2 charge Cycles. Later it never went beyond 270 km per charge that to on slow 14hour charging. FYI I also own a Ather 450 x pro plus which never gives beyond 80km in real world and charging times at least 4 hours forgot about fast charging which never gives a chance to charge in a rare to limited availability options in the city where I live.
And adding the biggest pain to the point is charging infrastructure where didn't even get, or wait for hours to the point will be in non working condition. We have come through long challenging issues to sort evs infrastructure and charging availability.
Each and every point is important because cost is not same as petrol/diesel vehicle. Very useful and urgent video by an expert and conclusion also. Thank u...
Sir... i have a suzuki wagon r and need to buy a body cover for it. Would you please recommend a brand or from where should i buy it so that i get the a value for money product. Thank you.
Currently cost of Hyundai Kona Battery is around 14 lakhs...you can get it FOC under Warranty....what after Warranty is over? what will be the batterys price at that time?
Truly fantastic VDO on EV. Thanks for Sharing perfect & complete info on Batteries, Cells....... Non of EV manufacturers have shared anything on nos. of Units consumed for Charging Per 1KW of Battery. I am sure it would less but it's important to know as well. Most of the Li-Ion Batteries tend to charge less after few years. It might show full charge but as you make use of the range would go down faster. As a photographer we also make use of Lithium ion Batteries & we have been experiencing for years. Same is the case with Mobile battery as well.
@@conraddsa20 That's approx. ₹300-350 for full charge. Plus got to add the extra 35-40% Amt. Paid for buying an EV. Would rather buy the best Hybrid or CNG car over EV. To produce Electricity 60-70% is produced by burning Coal which produces pollution - heat & Gas. Hence got to say no to EV in India. To buy CNG Car is cheapest to counter EVs in our country.
@@rajoosolanky780 Agree with the calculation of the charge costs, disagree on the 'extra amount' being paid for an EV. While yes, you do pay a premium at the moment for an EV, you are basically an early adopter of the tech atleast in India. On the other had, your service costs are significantly lower in an EV. The MG ZS' service structure is 1500 after 5k kms, and approx 6k after 20k kms. Which you cannot find in an ICE or CNG car. CNG does give an EV competition, but fuel costs will always rise, no escaping that. Secondly, with constant maintenance, you will need to scrap any ICE engine after 15 years, but in an EV, you can just replace the battery or motor after its life, and continue using the same car for years. Plus with battery tech improving, there is a likelyhood for battery costs to become cheaper overtime. CNG's too produce the same pollutants but in lower numbers as compared to ICE cars. If you are countering EV's because its produced by burning coal, its best to buy a boat.
@@conraddsa20 You are Batteries cost will come down. But at the same time Units charge of Electricity will go up. But that's going to be marginal. Do you mean to say EV technology will not improve & you might be using the EV car for 20-30 years when compared to ICE. Boss EV technology is on a rapid development. Chances are in Future all 4 wheels might have seperate motor. Presently what is offered is just 1 single motor. Do not be under the false impression the same tech will be in use for more than 15 years. Presently most of the Indian buyers can afford CNG & Hybrids. EV is in the evolution state. Might be after 2025 it might stabilize & might be affordable. Chances are less than 3-4% 4 wheelers would be EV & 12-15% would be 2 wheeler EVs. There might be more smaller Nano sized EVs coming in for daily commuting to reduce daily travel costs. Who knows Petrol Price also could come down to around ₹70-75. The whole equation might change completely. Agar & Magar cannot be ruled out.
@@rajoosolanky780 You should really read what I had said in my earlier comment. I said if you purchase an EV now, you are like an early adopter of the tech, and yes, battery tech will improve, thus leading to lower battery replacement costs. Coming to your 'chances are in future all 4 wheels might have seperate motor'. Its already here. The Ford F150 lightning already has it. Most indian hybrid cars at this point of time cost in excess of 14 lakhs, still not enough for a middle class buyer looking for a car in the sub 10 lakh segment. Chances are petrol might cross 200 rs too in the near future, but it definitely isnt coming down to 70 bucks anytime soon. A migration to renewables will lower the energy costs, reduce pollution and keep EV's running, while ICE car owners can go ahead and fork their livelihoods over to go from A to B.
A very pertinent topic , the availability of EV option is a welcome change but they need to evolve to make it a value for money and a reliable option An interesting and a thought provoking video I believe the advent of solid state LiIon batteries which are expected to charge in as much time as it takes to refuel a non EV car and other technological improvements will help in making EV a preferred alternative in not so far future
Hi brother 1. We can go long trips but need to plan properly as we planning our mobile charge. 2. Don't worry about battery and motor issue already you said about guarantee 3. After 8 year or after guarantee period as per your concern battery has to replace.. but see brother you should understand electrical and chip technology .. tomorrow it will cheaper than today.. see our smartphone
Sir monthly running 800km is tiago ev will be better or ignis petrol which comes at 7.6 lakh please suggest, for tiago ev xt long range ev it's 10.5 lakh on road in Karnataka ,most city drive
Well done ✅ Congratulations Respected Sir Really appreciate your help reality show big problem E V Car 🚗 in India biggest problem, video clips 👍 information 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👌
There one more issue :battery performance changes with temperature as we all know In India temperature can range from sub zero to 48°C . I think ev cars or even scooties makes sense in City areas or daily commute like daily going office or short distance commute and one must have another vehicle fuel based so if he had any plans for long distance travels .... Moreover only problem I see is price , price is too high for what kind of vehicle we are getting 🙂 and paying that much extra is simply not worth it buying Nexon at 8-9 lacs , u spend almost 6 lacs extra on ev counterparts, still it have some running cost so getting value back from ev is really difficult 😐😐😐 I also support EVs but currently not practical or wise choice as such due to technical limitations 😐 To get value back it will take like 6 years to balance extra cost if you drive 25 -30k per year .
All developed countries has established their plants to generate electricity through wind, so it's certainly not bogus if you consider globally but yes in India the concept is still not in vogue.
@@jeet9016 use to abhi ev ka bhi nahi hai 2015 se pehle 300rs ka ek gb aata tha ab 300 me 30gb milta hai socha tha kbhi wifi chori krne wale indians free internet chalaege🍻
We hv a Govt.who is least concern wid the facilities but they just want huge taxes even if they don,t give infrastructure support . whatever substitude ppl will find they wl increase the prices of that akternate fuel n taxes .
very useful information. Petrol/Diesel cars cannot be replaced. Elctric cars have been in use since last 60 years , but their usefulness is too much limited
Too early to say that. Also unfair to say 60 years because that's not low long the industry was seriously innovating and bringing economies of scale for ev.
I am not completely sure but the point which you made related to Customised Headlamp, Can you confirm it's true because as far as my knowledge is concerned I think it will pull the power from the smaller battery which is used to turn on the car and not the bigger battery pack which is used to run the car.
Hi sir... I don't know about MG ev, but I heard from other reviewers that tata nexon and tata tigor's space in the rear seat is more than adequate... Sir, can you please clarify like what would be the typical height of a person that'll make that person uncomfortable in rear seats of the mentioned tata cars?? Thank you...
Your genuine information makes any body think practically and makes us think judiciously before spending our valuable money. I think still the best green mode of transportation is horse and bullock carts 😉
Also, the pollution will happen from the power generation facility (for example thermal power generation) from where we charge the car battery everytime. The solution could be in ZEV vehicles.
No EV company tells what the range of EV would be if it has 4-5 passengers. Range would come down significantly as number of passengers increases. Adding to more range anxiety.
As everyone talking about petrol prices so I find out this concern- Nexon XZ Plus (manual petrol): ~11.5 lakhs(on road approx). Nexon XZ Plus (EV max): ~17.5 lakhs(on road approx). So people who are planning to buy this EV just to save the ⛽ petrol price.... They actually need to pay 6 lakhs extra 😭 By the way 6 lakhs ka petrol kharch kar ne k liye mujhe to at least 5 saal lagenge... 😀
You get superb automatic gearless shift. Ventillated seats, sunroof, drive modes, better upholstery, jaguar type rotary dial, 6 airbags, hid lights and some other features as well other than just EV and petrol thing.
Hello Gagan, very interesting video and you bring up some valid points. I am a Nexon EV user from past one year and just want to point out some valid counter arguments to some of the points mentioned in your video: 1) Insurance coverage : You are right in stating that insurance don't cover 100% battery and this is due to fact that we don't have any company issuing a separate policy wording for electric vehicles and they use that same ICE policy where 50% coverage point mentioned for all or most insurance providers. I had the same concern before purchase so raised this to Tata Motors team and they contacted all insurers using their inhouse insurance team. Based on that they sent a contact with email confirmation that few insurers will provide 100% battery coverage if Zero Dep policy is taken and from these i went ahead with Future Generali who gave the full battery cover plus a very nominal rate of insurance. I believe soon as the number of electric vehicle increases we will have insurance providers providing tailor made policies with such 100% battery coverage. 2) EV's are more polluting than ICE vehicle due to mining of rare earth metals and how electricity is produced: I don't want to mention any counter arguments but want to highlight another video from RU-vid. This gives all the details for interested people. Please watch it as its a real eye opener. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1oVrIHcdxjA.html
3) Chargers and Range Anxiety : This is an issue especially for highway travel but we should be happy to note that the rate in which new charging network is coming up in India and it is phenomenal in the past 2 years. Now we have Big players like JIOBP and Adani group entering this field with their network. In South India for example in Karnataka and especially in Tamil Nadu and Kerala we have very good network provided by Zeon, Tata and Relux and also by KSEB/BESCOM and other government entities. This trend is not slowing down and will only go on to reduce this range anxiety for electric car owners. But one point to note is that for most people majority of the charging will be done at home and here there is no issue unless you don't have a dedicated parking slot. If home charging is done the cost/km is a rupee or lesser depending on the electricity slabs in your state. 4) Battery Replacement : Most EV companies are working on second life of vehicle batteries so even before they are scrapped there is a possibility to use such batteries for many years in Home UPS and other power backup solutions. Even though these batteries might not be usable in your vehicle it will still have usable life for many years in such alternate applications. Once these options open up then the value of the battery remains high and the replacement cost will be much lower than the original costs. Also we are able to recycle theses batteries post the second life usage and bring back most of the valuable rare earth metals which can be again used for new battery production so thereby having circularity in our usage and reduce more the impact of mining of these rare earth minerals.
Sir monthly running 800km is tiago ev will be better or ignis petrol which comes at 7.6 lakh please suggest, for tiago xt long range ev it's 10.5 lakh on road in Karnataka
As per ur opinion, in future almost all insurance companies might cover battery is a foolish thought of u.. Insurance companies covers only uncertain things but the battery damage of an ev car is a certain thing and in future 50%cover of battery will also be withdrawn
@@kirankumarmrjain You just see EV vs Petrol car video done by youtubers also done.. They are providing excellent sheet. Where we can enter our required car prices. And do analysis
Don't know about other states or UT but in chandigarh we have charging points everywhere in dozens at one spot. Outside parks parking, petrol pumps, multilevel parkings, malls parking, hospital parkings, bus stands everywhere within 4-5 km you will definitely find it. And believe chandigarh have lots of parks in very short distances
Highly informative. Too expensive to buy today. However, Gadkari ji has promised that EV cars will be available at the same rates as petrol cars next year. Shall wait to buy one.
There have been rumors of battery blowing up. could you please explain the causes and preventions. I am also told that the cars do not give the range as given by the manufactures, it is only 70 percent of their claims.
Great video Sir, covered all relevant points especially the environment friendly propaganda. Moreover, Lithium is not found in India so as of now we import crude, with EV'S the situation is the same. Mining of these metals create more pollution and human exploitation. Apni Akkal lagao, Dikhave pe Mat jao!! Good for people with fixed travel.
Well said sir.. 👍👍for middle class people for km range upto 250-400 price should be upto 5lacs..for km range upto 350-500km prices below 10lacs are acceptable .and above 10L price km range should be above 500km or 700-1000km...then only ev cars purchase is affordable and sales will grow.
EVs r only for intra city office to home or home to malls use. as of now they are not for intercity trips. But if all office users use EV, it definitely will help to reduce some pollution.
