The enthusiasm to own Electric Vehicles (EV) is increasing among the people. Though it
costs 40-45% higher than usual fuel vehicles, saving on petrol and diesel and contributing to
saving our mother earth are rational reasons to buy it. Some companies already have started
selling EVs. Well reputed Tata Motors is in the first row with its Nexon EV release. Hundreds
of start-ups have already started selling electric two-wheelers. The customers need to know
that there are certain grave issues to be understood. The principal one is the lack of charging
and maintenance infrastructure. Those who have independent houses have the facility of
installing a charging setup but in apartments, it is a real challenge. There have been some
recent fire incidents in EV bikes’ batteries. The minister for road transport and highways, Nitin
Gadkari warned the companies to recall faulty vehicles. Another serious challenge is that
when there are many EVs, can the governments provide sufficient electricity? Now power cuts
are everywhere as there is not much coal availability. What and how it will be in the future is a
serious question to be answered. It is good to imagine that the roads of India are full of
electric vehicles and no more noise and no more thick smoke from the vehicles. It is also
estimated that in two or three years as the price comes down and present issues with EVs are

Comprehension:
Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.

The enthusiasm to own Electric Vehicles (EV) is increasing among the people. Though it
costs 40-45% higher than usual fuel vehicles, saving on petrol and diesel and contributing to
saving our mother earth are rational reasons to buy it. Some companies already have started
selling EVs. Well reputed Tata Motors is in the first row with its Nexon EV release. Hundreds
of start-ups have already started selling electric two-wheelers. The customers need to know
that there are certain grave issues to be understood. The principal one is the lack of charging
and maintenance infrastructure. Those who have independent houses have the facility of
installing a charging setup but in apartments, it is a real challenge. There have been some
recent fire incidents in EV bikes’ batteries. The minister for road transport and highways, Nitin
Gadkari warned the companies to recall faulty vehicles. Another serious challenge is that
when there are many EVs, can the governments provide sufficient electricity? Now power cuts
are everywhere as there is not much coal availability. What and how it will be in the future is a
serious question to be answered. It is good to imagine that the roads of India are full of
electric vehicles and no more noise and no more thick smoke from the vehicles. It is also
estimated that in two or three years as the price comes down and present issues with EVs are
addressed we will see many such vehicles on our roads.
