What about India, where do we stand in the automotive revolution?

The Indian electric vehicle market is still in its infancy, but it is expected to develop at a 90 per cent CAGR from 2021 to 2030. Electric vehicles (EVs) are quietly racing to reshape the car and commercial truck manufacturing industries and meet the growing demands of global consumers andbusinesses. India can save 64% of anticipated passenger road-based mobility-related energy demand and 37% of carbon emissions in 2030 by pursuing a shared, electric, and connected mobility future.

It’s a heavy lift for the automotive industry and champions such as Husain Ansari of the EV revolution are confident that there will be many winners.

Husain has truly carved a niche for himself and is one celebrated effective leader and visionary for the electric drive technology in the automotive industry.
