The shift toward electric vehicles (EVs) is a key component in advancing sustainability and reducing reliance on fossil fuels. With increasing concerns about climate change and environmental degradation, EVs offer a viable alternative to traditional internal combustion engine vehicles due to their lower carbon footprint and greater energy efficiency. However, large-scale adoption depends on multiple factors, including consumer awareness, affordability, availability of charging infrastructure, and government policies.

This study explores consumer perceptions of EVs in Telangana, drawing data from 100 participants across diverse demographics. By applying statistical methods such as descriptive analysis, chi-square tests, and regression analysis, the research identifies the main drivers of EV adoption, the barriers preventing wider acceptance, and the overall satisfaction with existing charging infrastructure.

The results provide valuable insights into consumer attitudes and suggest areas for improvement to enhance confidence in EV technology. Additionally, this study presents recommendations for policymakers, manufacturers, and stakeholders to increase EV penetration in Telangana by addressing infrastructure gaps, refining incentive programs, and strengthening public awareness initiatives. A well-executed transition to EVs will contribute to a cleaner and more sustainable transportation system in the region.
