Although such EV vehicles are environmentally beneficial, but they also have significant drawbacks, which you should be fully aware of before purchasing one. Some of the notable demerits are below.
Short battery life of Electric Vehicles
The typical gasoline vehicle readily covers four or five hundred miles on a single tank of fuel. A diesel vehicle may travel more like 700 miles. On the other hand, all EVs may not capable of ranging long distance in single charge like Electric Peugeot e-208 which requires recharging every 217 miles.
Electric Vehicles are comparatively more expensive
EVs are more expensive to buy upfront than gasoline or diesel cars, making them an expensive option for the first few years. But by saving on fuel costs, this can be made up in a few years.
Poor charging infrastructure
In many industrialized nations, electric vehicle are quite popular because of a robust infrastructure for charging them. However, India now suffers from a severe shortage of infrastructure for electric vehicle charging. Only a few major cities in the nation now have public EV charging stations, and even in those places, the number of outlets is insufficient.
