Reducing the cost of electric vehicles

Electric Vehicles India

Reducing the cost of electric vehicles. 10,000/KWh with an increase in cap from 20% to 40% of the cost of the vehicle from 11th June 2021, thus enabling the cost of Electric two-wheelers at par with that of ICE two-wheeler vehicles. Drop-in battery price will result in cost reduction of electric vehicles.

Tula study shows electrified DSF for LDV mild hybrid diesels reduces CO2 emissions by up to 11%

Green Car Congress

The study validated that Tula’s Dynamic Skip Fire (DSF) developed for mild-hybrid diesel vehicles reduced CO 2 emissions in a 2.3 The CO 2 reduction can be achieved at a cost of only €200 ($235 USD) per vehicle. FEV, an international engineering partner to the auto industry, joined forces with Tula to develop this study.

MIT study finds real-world NOx from diesels cars in Europe greatly exceeds laboratory levels; transboundary emissions cause 70% of health impacts

Green Car Congress

A new study by MIT researchers, published this month in Atmospheric Environment , finds that in Europe, 10 major auto manufacturers produced diesel cars, sold between 2000 and 2015, that generate up to 16 times more NO x emissions on the road than in regulatory tests—a level that exceeds European limits but does not violate any EU laws.

Using modular platforms and micro-factories to lower the cost of commercial EVs – Charged EVs

Baua Electric

How do you convince someone who’s been driving diesel all their life to go electric if you have a fixed range and a weight compromise, and by the way, you have to pay double the cost? For us it’s just the cost. At the end of the day, we want to be as close to a diesel cost as possible in the next five years without incentives.

100 e-buses to run on Bhopal roads in a year – ET Auto

Baua Electric

The city bus service in Bhopal is diesel-driven. According to estimates, the revenue collection of BCLL is about INR 20 to INR 25 per km, whereas the cost of operation of diesel buses is about INR 40 per km. Ujjain and Gwalior will also get 70 and 40 7m electric buses respectively.

Biomass fuels: challenges and opportunities – ET Auto

Baua Electric

However, lignin, a complex material providing plant strength, remains largely unused due to challenges in breaking it down into low-viscosity oils essential for producing kerosene or diesel fuel. Moreover, the cost of the catalyst, specially noble metals, hindered its acceptability. The precious noble metals (Pd, Pt, and Ru, etc.)
