Wow great news. Let the ball rolling.
 
"Tata Motors has announced that the carmaker delivered a total of 101 electric vehicles to its customers in Chennai. A total of 70 Nexon EVs and 31 Tigor EVs were delivered through Srilakshmi Auto Enterprises dealership."
101 ev delivery in 1 day is pretty nice.
But i would avoid a mass delivery event as the pre delivery checklist is critical while taking possession of a new car.

Most dealers have a 6 month wait period for the nexon ev.

Mahindra Tharchas 1 year of waiting period(Diesel). Ultimate vehicle.

its not a everyday drive vehicle, especially not for a family.
very sparse interiors.
Also you are off topic.
 
if Pakistanis are wondering about the buzz about electric cars, especially nexon ev in India, here is what a Audi owner says in a forum -

"just loved how you laid out my mind what I think about EV. When I went for Tata Nexon EV test drive, I was blown away by sports mode. The thrill and excitement the car gives is beyond words. It's true that I would drive Nexon EV and not Audi at night
LOL.png
. I am already in that zone where I am going to ditch petrol completely after 5 years down the line."

The average electric car gives a sub 10 second 0 to 100 kmph , which might be high by sportscar stds but how many of us have sportscars ?
In the west sub 5 seconds is common for 0 to 100 kmph.
 
Secondly, the big cities now should be decongested of people too by building scientifically-planned, aesthetic and harmonious satellite townships and providing employment there. In this post I present how a township should be built. In this post from last year I wrote how such townships should be arranged and I quote from it :

Yes, I have written of this before many times. What we need are satellite townships which are built scientifically and aesthetically, to enable harmonious living and to prevent crime and chaos, all this written into the townships' DNA. Nicely built neighborhoods which have 100x80 foot house plots which have a compulsory garden, a tree ( say lemon ), a comfortable cat shelter and the main house itself being max two storey with the main cat house on the terrace which should also have potted plants. Wide roads which can be places to stand in case of earthquake. Four house plots for every length of road. There should be multiple Vertical Farms in every neighborhood and each farm should have collectivized labor. One shop for groceries, vegetables and processed food items with most of the vegetables coming from the neighborhood's Vertical Farms. WiFi point on every road. A reasonably large clinic. One 3D Printing shop for every three neighborhoods. A nicely built shopping district with malls that include a cinema hall set. The people employed in these Vertical Farms and general Urban Farms, security, maintenance and other high-tech industry. The work places and the shopping and recreation buildings and areas built not in ugly modern glass-facade but in aesthetic and harmonious Greco-Roman, Ancient Egyptian and Islamic architecture. Fountains. Multiple general hospitals with specialized treatment too. Educational institutions which have cross-disciplinary teaching. And yes, the township shouldn't have dogs and in keeping with this thread's theme no privately-owned personal transport vehicles but instead have 30-passenger cyclorotor skybuses and six-passenger cyclorotor skytaxis. There should be cyclorotor-based ambulances which can carry at least three patients with reasonable health systems and cyclorotor-based police vehicles [ For what is a "cyclorotor" you must read the linked post's thread ].

Now we can further discuss what socio-economic and political system the new townships should have.

Tata Nexon EV has been a runaway success and now a more powerful version is about to be unveiled 2022 Tata Nexon Electric Known unofficially as extended-range Nexon EV, the vehicle is likely to launch on April 29. It features a 40kWh battery, which will increase the SUV’s range to over 400 km in ideal test conditions. The present Nexon Electric has a 30.2kWH battery which is 30 percent less powerful than the new Nexon’s battery pack

Very excited about the 40 kw battery version with real range of 300 km.
Total game changer if priced right.
Might take the plunge but with 2 cars and work from home , very difficult decision to justify a near 20 Lakh car.
 
About inter-city public transportation I will post in my thread about transportation once I gather thoughts for that but here we are talking about intra-city public transportation and we need not have it so complicated as is the current state. Think of this : Within Indian cities would replacing the 30 million petroleum-fuel personal cars and hundreds of millions of petroleum-fuel personal two-wheelers with 30 million electric personal cars and hundreds of millions of electric personal two-wheelers ever solve the Indian problem of chaos, accidents, crime and disharmony ? In India there are about 450,000 road accidents every year with many many deaths and these accidents and deaths are very avoidable. Just ban personal vehicles and almost all of those accidents are gone. Why live a complicated life when you can live a simpler and much better one ?

You know the USP of Uber when it came out was that Americans need no longer take their personal cars out and could instead use Uber. That didn't work to remove USA from the sources of global pollution from vehicles, yes ? :) Some things need a straight ban to simplify things and restart from a clean slate.

As for the electric scooter, there's a frenzy of some countries manufacturing electric scooters including India and for the last few months electric scooters have been catching fire in India including one incident where there's a consignment of scooters within a truck, not even running.



Sorry but this is rubbish. Please read my last few posts. You cannot present something in a happy manner when its base itself is wrong.
Mr Broken Record,
Things move one step at a time, no one can deliver you the ideal world not even in a decade,
At similar scale (population) China took 30-40 years to be in the current state (after taking right business /economic calls)

These are baby steps coming from a nation where affording good R&D is difficult, this need to be applauded,
What was China doing in 90s early 2000s, there was no innovation they were just copy pasting, and you would have said the same thing for them, point is sector creation takes time and one needs to climb up one step at a time.

these are V1s and the will have problems, there are 10+ companies working on electric two wheelers, both Mahindra & TATA are aggressive on electric 4 wheelers and all of them are creating value which is better then whining noise of negativity
 
TATA is also L1 for providing E-buses under central scheme to 5 metro cities. This is the largest government backed EV scheme till now. After this state governments will also move towards purchasing EVs for public transportation.

We need a government ban on production of Petrol/Diesel engines for vehicles to be used in public transport. This can be done and is achievable.

just rebadged Chinese buses. Fooling ourselves.
 
Tata already has technology for large vehicle making. Maybe battery tech is Chinese.

Tata has got battery technology from ISRO which is very cheap and highly efficient. This is the reason that Tata is the only highly successful in 4 wheeler EV company in India.
