Electric Vehicle Manufacturers
With electric vehicles slowly, but steadily, going mainstream, the forming of some sort of governing body for EV manufacturers was inevitable. And yes, indeed, the Society of Indian Electric Vehicle Manufacturers (SIEVM) has now been formed, and registered in New Delhi.
SIEVM currently comprises of EV manufacturers like Hero Electric, Mahindra & Mahindra, Electrotherm, Avon Cycles, Lohia Auto, BSA Motors, Lectrix Motors, Paradise Electro, Shubh Arya Steel, Crazye Bikes, ACE, Sinic Motors, Genex Power and Kabir Dass Motor. Electric vehicle component manufacturers like Exide Industries, Freescale Semiconductors, Crompton Greaves, Axiom, Hinode Technology, Fiem Industries, Rotomag, NEC, and Texas Instruments are also members of the Society.
‘SIEVM has been formed to promote electric vehicles as a viable alternative to IC engine vehicles running on non-renewable fuel, which is polluting, becoming scarce and getting unaffordable by the day. SIEVM will be the platform for the collective voice of the energy providers, component suppliers, vehicle manufacturers and customers,’ said Sohinder Gill, CEO, Hero Electric.
Some issues that SIEVM plans to address immediately are; anomalies in the import of, and excise duties levied on, EV components, the lack of charging facilities in public places, and insufficient operational standards of certification bodies.
