Delhi, India has implemented a new EV Policy 2.0 to combat air pollution by mandating that only electric three-wheelers and commercial goods vehicles can be registered starting in 2027, and all new scooters and motorcycles must be electric by 2028. The city is offering financial incentives for buyers, including subsidies for electric vehicles and additional incentives for scrapping old ICE vehicles. Delhi's efforts to transition to electric vehicles and improve air quality could serve as a positive example for other cities facing similar challenges, reflecting the success of strong government mandates in driving EV adoption seen in China and Europe. This shift towards electric vehicles is crucial in combating air pollution in urban areas like Delhi.
