An electric vehicle operates on electricity unlike its counterpart, which runs on fuel. Instead of internal combustion engine, these vehicles run on an electric motor that requires constant supply of energy from batteries to operate. There are a variety of batteries used in these vehicles. These include lithium ion, molten salt, zinc-air, and various nickel-based designs. The electric vehicle was primarily designed to replace conventional ways of travel as they lead to environmental pollution. It has gained popularity, owing to numerous technological advancements. It outperforms conventional vehicles providing higher fuel economy, low carbon emission & maintenance, convenience of charging at home, smoother drive, and reduced sound from engine. There are three types of electric vehicles batteries, hybrid, and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. In addition, electric vehicles require no engine oil changes but are slightly expensive than their gasoline equivalents.

Increase in demand for fuel-efficient, high-performance, and low-emission vehicles

Gasoline being a fossil fuel is not a renewable source of energy, and is anticipated to get exhausted in the future. To support sustainable development, it is important to develop and use alternative sources of fuel. This involves use of electric vehicles, which do not use gas and are more economical than conventional vehicles. An electric vehicle converts over 50% of the electrical energy from the grid to power at the wheels, whereas the gas-powered vehicle only manages to convert about 17%–21% of the energy stored in gasoline. The demand for fuel-efficient vehicles has increased recently, owing to rise in price of petrol and diesel. This is attributed to depleting fossil fuel reserves and growth in tendency of companies to gain maximum profit from these oil reserves. Thus, these factors give rise to the need for advanced fuel-efficient technologies, leading to surge in demand for electrically powered vehicles for travel.

Stringent government rules and regulations toward vehicle emission

With the growing environmental concerns, governments and environmental agencies across the world are enacting stringent emission norms and laws to reduce vehicle emission. Major regulatory measures are stringent emissions targets for the reduction of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and carbon dioxide (CO2) in air. High amounts of greenhouse gases being emitted from vehicles and federal and state governments in the U.S. are stepping up efforts to make transportation cleaner. 

For instance, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced that they are working on new rules to decrease emissions of nitrogen oxide (NOx) and other pollutants from heavy-duty trucks. In addition, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) is adopting heavy-duty Low NOx Omnibus Regulation, aims to achieve a 90% reduction from current NOx emissions limits by 2027. Moreover, in Europe, European Union (EU) committed within the Paris agreement (COP21) to achieve its 20% greenhouse gas reduction target in 2020 for the second phase of the Kyoto Protocol. The EU has also set the target to achieve 40% greenhouse gas reduction by 2040 and net-zero by 2050.

Therefore, with enactment of the emission regulations for fossil fuel-powered vehicle, the burden on vehicle manufacturers, especially on commercial vehicle manufacturers, has further increased. This, in turn, is expected to drive the demand for electric vehicles. Thus, stringent emission norms imposed on fossil-fuel powered commercial vehicles significantly driving growth of the electric vehicle market. 

Lack of charging infrastructure

Governments of various countries are promoting adoption of electric vehicles for commercial purpose to reduce emission of greenhouse into environment. However, lack of charging infrastructure for electric vehicles acts as an obstacle for the electric vehicle market. For instance, the Government of India is aiming to have only electric vehicle on roads by 2030. However, creation of robust electric vehicle infrastructure is one of the key requirements to ensure the adoption of electric vehicles. Unfortunately, EV charging infrastructure in most of developing countries is inadequate at present and yet to catch up to meet the requirement, which in turn is hampering the growth of the electric vehicle market. In addition, though China is one of the biggest markets for electric vehicles, the country is struggling to support the sufficient electric vehicle charging infrastructure to recharge electric fleets, which is anticipated to hindering the market. Thus, lack of charging infrastructure is restraining the growth of EV market.
