India has about 1.5 million battery-powered, three-wheeled rickshaws – a fleet bigger than the total number of electric passenger cars sold in China since 2011.
As many as 11,000 new e-rickshaws hit the streets every month, and annual sales are expected to increase about 9 percent by 2021. The potential market for e-rickshaws could be sales of 20 million vehicles a year.
And all this, without much of significant policy boost from government.
