The Centre's automotive mission plan in India is set to encompass a variety of powertrains to enhance the global competitiveness of the automobile industry. This includes a significant focus on green hydrogen-based engines, alongside internal combustion engines, electric vehicles, flex-fuel, and biofuels. The plan, led by the ministry of heavy industries, aims to align the industry with a 2047 target to make India a developed nation. Efforts to achieve energy transition and promote sustainable mobility are evident through initiatives like boosting green hydrogen-backed mobility and increasing the blending of ethanol in petrol. The automotive mission plan will also emphasize technological advancements and increasing exports, with a substantial focus on alternative vehicles. The government's acceptance of technologies beyond electric vehicles, such as hybrid cars, highlights the evolving landscape of the automotive sector in India. The mission plan also integrates efforts to upskill the workforce, with collaborations with organizations like The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI). The automotive industry in India, a key player globally, has substantial economic contributions, with 7.1% share in the GDP and 4.7% in overall exports. The upcoming edition of the automotive mission plan is poised to drive innovation, sustainability, and competitiveness in the industry, aligning with the country's aspirations for economic growth and technological advancement.
