News items reported that 47% of all three wheeler sales were electric (timeframes not clear, but presumably for first half of 2022)
That's quite stunning, even assuming this was valid for a limited timeframe.
And actually, this should not be super surprising as three wheelers tick all the boxes when it comes to business case for going electric - their batteries are not too large so cost increments are not very high compared to conventional, and as the distance covered per sortie is not very long, these can be perhaps charged during the breaks, driver offtime or nights. Or perhaps the swapping networking has started to show their mettle. But most important, the operational cost savings these provide in these days of high liquid and gas fuel prices could be the icing on the business case cake.
