Govt officials refuse to use EVs by Mahindra, Tata Motors
Senior government officials have reportedly refused to use electric vehicles (EVs) made by Mahindra and Mahindra, and Tata Motors citing low mileage and poor performance. The cars' battery capacity was reportedly not up to global standards, failing to return even 80-82 km on a single charge. Energy Efficiency Services, a public sector unit under the Power Ministry, procures the vehicles.
