Speed of charging still remains an area of further development. How do you look at it?
We are working towards reducing charging time with replacing lead acid batteries from our electric two wheelers and three wheelers into lithium ion battery. Normally lead acid battery charging time is around 8-10 hrs while lithium ion batteries can be charged within 3-4 hrs. In the coming days, it will be reduced further as new technology is evolving in lithium ion batteries and advanced chargers are also helping in reducing charging time. Battery swapping can also address this concern and we are looking into developing system in this direction.

Can you please tell us your effort in the electric vehicles segment that you have developed?
Lohia Auto Industries was established in 2008 with an objective to provide clean, efficient, reliable and affordable inner-city and rural transportation. In the highly cluttered automobile market, the company has carved out a niche with e-scooters. Further, we introduved an e-three wheeler as last mile connectivity solution. Recently, we launched e-auto with lithium ion battery in high speed/ low speed both options. Also, we are continuously raising concerns related to EV industry through different forums. We are founder member of SMEV, which works towards development of EV industry.
