Small-capacity electric two-wheelers, particularly those with practicality and utility in mind have exploded in the Asian market. Yes, some of them are literally exploding and bursting into flames, but despite this major issue surrounding EV batteries, more and more manufacturers are releasing budget-friendly LEVs, especially in India.
As battery technology advances and safety measures are added in the manufacturing of lithium-ion cells, it’s a hope that EV-related fires will soon become a thing of the past. Indeed, many Indian manufacturers are bolstering their research and development when it comes to their batteries, with Ola Electric building its power cells in-house, and Hero Electric teaming up with battery specialist Battrixx for safer, more efficient batteries.
