EVs to Cost as Much as ICE Vehicles in the Next Two Years: Nitin Gadkari

News 18  

Union Minister of Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari in Rajya Sabha said that India is making great progress in technology and that green fuel will reduce the cost of electric automobiles. Gadkari reiterated that bringing the cost of green vehicles will be at par with petrol-run vehicles in the next two years. Ahead of this, in an exclusive interview with News18, Gadkari had said that India is only one EV revolution away from turning things around and lowering the cost of electric vehicles to the same level as petrol and diesel vehicles. Before that, Gadkari addressed the annual session of the Indian Chamber of Commerce and FY21 AGM in November where he said that within two years, the cost of EVs would come down to a level that will be at par with their petrol variants.
