With an aim to promote pollution-free vehicles, SVM stands for creating the best riding motorcycles for Indian customers. The vision being Fast, Fun, and Safe, SVM’s priority is to ensure that safety is maintained in all the facets.

Taking the last few years into account, Electric Vehicles ( EV’s) are slowly gaining prominence in the automotive sector and it will not be long before EV’s become more established. EV’s have shown the world that they are at-least equitable if not mostly superior in performance to their ICE engine counterparts.

The main factor in the concept of EV’s, the battery can face high demands in the market as a result of peak sales in electric motor vehicles leading to an escalation in the existing price. Dealing with this concern can be a little grueling.

But… It’s not inconceivable.

To support you in achieving the highest quality of lithium-ion batteries and ways to improve battery life, here we produce a few basic tips and techniques that can be implemented on the daily run to achieve the goal.

Avoid complete draining of the battery.

• Avoid fast charging.
• Try not to go below 20 percent unless you need to.
• Maintain constant temperature avoiding exposure to extremely high and low temperatures.
• Avoid mechanical damage such as punctures.
• Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

Unfolding the concern, SVM has already foreseen these details and the after effect, hence has equipped Prana with Active Smart Managed BMS which automatically handles the battery practice for you, living up to the vision claimed

A BMS monitors the state of the battery as represented by various items, such as voltage, temperature, current, state of charge, state of power, and state of safety.

Extending battery lifetime decreases costs and environmental restraints associated with the production of new batteries; including material consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, as well as the disposal of used batteries.

“As the nation and world shift to economies powered by batteries, it is paramount that we extend the life of all types of batteries, particularly those in our vehicles,” said Steve Christensen, executive director of the Responsible Battery Coalition.

SVM has established their first experience center in Coimbatore, Tamilnadu, and will soon expand our presence all over the nation.

Prana = Mobility 2.0 for personal commute 

Mobility 2.0 can be defined as the movement of individuals, families, households, or other categories of people within or between social strata in a society using non-fossil Commute.  SRIVARU Motors Pvt Ltd ( SVM) has reignited the action in developing electric transportation and clearly focusing on Premium segment Commutes. The aim of SVM is to achieve widespread adoption of electric vehicles in Major Indian cities to reach a target where travel by electric vehicles makes up 30% of total urban travel by 2030. 

Simply definition on Transition

Transformation of the automotive industry 

Electrification plays a significant role in a country like India, by 2030, Mobility 2.0 could prompt electric vehicles holding a significant share up to 50% of new vehicle sales in a breakthrough scenario globally. If India experiences a similar momentum, it will significantly impact manufacturers across the automotive value chain. However, after the initial announcement for the adoption of 100% electric vehicles by 2030, India has already rolled back this audacious goal under intense lobbying by automotive component sectors. We think it is mainly due to fear of change. Concepts of shared mobility are emerging through cab aggregators, use of electric motorcycles, rickshaws, and electric buses. However, IoT based interconnectivity and autonomous driving are currently far off concepts on India’s Mobility 2.0 horizon. 

Sales and market shares – Globally 

In 2017, global sales of electric vehicles crossed the threshold limit of 1 million units (1.1 million). The sales growth of EV was slow in 2016 when compared to 2015 but picked up a pace in 2017, registering a year-on-year increase of 54% (compared with 38% in 2016). The below graph reveals the same  Mobility 2.0 is leading to in-vehicle commuting assistance for EV mobility, enabling more reliable and energy-efficient electric-mobility. To have a higher impact, Mobility 2.0 adopts a strategic paradigm to address the main concern of urban EV mobility, i.e, Range anxiety while making driving much easier. Remember the city driving with mobility 1.0 vehicles gear shifting is a tedious process. SVM’s PRANA makes the concept of the clutch, gear a thing of the previous generation.  

Key Drivers for Mobility 2.0 as follows 

• Awareness of vehicle pollution | Making customers demanding better vehicle
• Need for upgraded driving experience and better safety standards
• Regulations and incentives
• Technology
• Infrastructure
• Customer demand

The infrastructure such as charging, battery swapping, inductive roads and IoT connected parking slots for EVs is the next set of growth driver for this industry. With address of some of the above and growing environmental concern among the millennial is definitely going to give a fillip to customer demand. All of the above drivers of mobility 2.0 create definite spaces or niches for entrepreneurs to innovate on and develop new business models.

 

Demise of Mobility 1.0 

Electric vehicles are not a new phenomenon, as they first appeared in the mid-19th century. In fact, an electric vehicle held the vehicular land speed record until around 90’s. However, the high cost, low top speed, and short range of battery vehicles, compared to later IC engine vehicles, led to a worldwide decline in their use; although electric vehicles have continued to be used in the form of electric trains and other niche uses. After years outside the limelight, there was a renaissance of sorts brought by the energy crises of the 1970s and 1980s, due to the perception that electric cars are insulated from the fluctuations of the hydrocarbon energy market. Throughout the 90s, interest in electric cars again waned as customer preferences shifted to big bulky SUVs which were gas guzzlers, though affordable to operate, thanks to lower gasoline prices. It was only with the emergence of TESLA in 2004, and introduction of their earlier models in 2008, brought EVs back into mainstream. The set of reasons are presented in graphic below. 

  Considering the entire value chain of Mobility 2.0 including renewable energy generation and distribution, recharging, battery and components, and Electric Vehicles sales, a World Bank study indicates a total value chain greater than $250 billion worldwide. If this is done, then Mobility 2.0 can play a vital role beyond the MDG development framework. Question remains how to inspire the next generation of business leaders to adopt even more ambitious sustainability goals and of course how do we give Mobility innovators and entrepreneurs the best chance of success. Energy storage for electricity will go through huge innovation which intern means better everyone and earth. 

                                              Trends in Mobility 2.0 

                     Globally Rising Adaption of Electric Vehicles 

Electric Vehicles as a product and EV as an industry needs new knowledge and new skills. They represent a fundamental change in approach in job structure. Employment growth is expected in most occupations in the electric vehicle industry in the next few years, according to a study, employment growth is expected in manufacturing industries and the domestic energy sector as the need for batteries and charging stations increase. New types of automobile manufacturing jobs will also be created; however, many of these jobs will be filled by current manufacturing employees or those that were displaced by recent downsizing of the automobile manufacturing industry. 

In line with the growing adoption of electric vehicles, Our Country is expected to have 30% of the vehicles on its roads to be electric or hybrid electric vehicles by 2030. Currently, India has a population of 23 crore I.C vehicles. One-third of the vehicles by 2030 could amount to about 10 crore vehicles. 

The increasing vehicle population means a huge ecosystem of Original Equipment Manufacturers and component companies. Electric mobility can thus create millions of local, green, and highly skilled jobs. 

SVM has committed creating around 1 lakh direct job opportunities, for every direct job, there will likely be five indirect jobs in the society – this takes the number of total employments by SVM to about 5 lakhs by 2030.
