The electric car market is really whirring up and now we can really see some concrete plans as major players enter the market. I'm talking about the Chevrolet brand with the launch of the e-spark, the electric spark will perhaps be the first mass produced electric vehicle in the country.

But why will this launch make a change? Not that the e-spark is going to be unique since its going to use the Reva's drive train, since the company has not spoken about the battery they are going to use, we can perhaps expect something different here. Apart from of course giving the customers a choice between a Lithium-Ion or a lead acetate battery.

The main reason why this is going to revolutionize the green car market in India, because of the company working with oil companies to launch charging stations. “We already have a joint venture with Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd (BPCL) for servicing our vehicles at some places, which can be replicated," said, Karl Slym, MD, General Motors.

With charging stations coming up, it would be possible for many other manufacturers to work on the green car prospect in the Indian market. General Motors, plans on producing these by the thousand and they will be ready to hit the road by next year.

Although the price of the electric spark is not yet known its certain to be more than the petrol variant available in the market today.
