Abstract:

The aim of the study is to identify the critical challenges hindering e-mobility adoption in India. It also aims to provide a roadmap for resolving these difficulties while taking into account the interests of all relevant stakeholders. Based on an in-depth literature review, an exploratory research design is employed to delve deep into various aspects of e-mobility. This is followed by a three-phase Delphi technique to identify and rate the e-mobility challenges in the Indian context. The study successfully identifies four different categories of challenges and proposes integrative framework for e-mobility. Further, the research goes on to lay out the future roadmap for mass adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) in India. The research is novel in terms of presenting a holistic viewpoint on e-mobility in India. Its originality lies in identifying the major barriers that hinder the adoption of EVs in India and then suggesting the roadmap for overcoming these obstacles to mass e-mobility adoption.
