Eco-Life, a Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV), will save around 1000 equivalent tons of carbon dioxide and 350,000 liters of diesel over 10 years of operation. This is a huge evolution from how public transportation operates in India. Eco-Life, powered by fast charging lithium batteries, can run 150-200 kms in 10-15 hours of city bus operation, depending on the city’s traffic conditions. According to a study, conducted by The Energy and Resources Institute (Teri), vehicular pollution is responsible for 25% of the of PM2.5 levels, and incorporating Eco-Life in the public transportation system could be a positive step in addressing the pollution epidemic in the city.
