EVs Production In India Will Make It Dependent On China
The production of electric vehicles (EVs) in India will increase its reliance on China for raw materials, mineral processing, and battery production. The Global Trade Research Initiative (GTRI) stated that a life cycle impact analysis is required for the field of electric vehicles. Sources confirmed that 70% of the materials used to make EVs in India are from China. Pollutants are released during the battery's production, disposal, and charging processes.
