WHY CONVERT

Better economics.
Cleaner driving.

The numbers make the case clearly. EV retrofitting is the most practical path to electric mobility for most Indian car owners.

90% lower running cost

Electricity costs ₹0.9–1.2/km. Petrol costs ₹6–8/km. On 40 km per day, that's a saving of over ₹70,000 every year — year after year.

₹1.1/km

Zero tailpipe emissions

No CO₂, no particulates. No emission test failures, no odd-even day restrictions in restricted zones. A meaningfully cleaner drive every day.

0 g CO₂

Keep your car and number plate

No new car loan. No depreciation hit. Your chassis, body, and interiors stay exactly as-is. Same registration number — just updated to reflect EV powertrain.

Same RC

Near-zero maintenance

No engine oil, no timing belt, no exhaust servicing. Electric motors have fewer than 20 moving parts vs 2,000+ in a petrol engine.

80% less upkeep

At a fraction of new EV cost

New EVs cost ₹8–25L. Conversion costs a fraction of that — making electric mobility accessible without taking on new debt.

~50% cheaper

Fully legal & compliant

ARAI-certified conversion. Registration certificate updated at RTO to reflect EV powertrain. No grey-area operation — your insurance and road-legality are intact.

THE HONEST PICTURE

What conversion
doesn't do

Retrofitting isn't right for everyone. Here's where buying new might make more sense:

  • If you want the latest features — touchscreen, ADAS, OTA updates
  • If your current car is in poor structural condition
  • If you need a 7-seater or commercial vehicle (not yet approved)
  • If you drive less than 15 km/day (payback takes longer)

Annual saving~₹87,600
Payback on ₹5L conversion~5.7 years

Indicative figures. Actual savings depend on vehicle model, usage pattern, and local electricity rates.
