"This is a very aspirational EV (electric vehicle), a very feature-loaded, a very technology-loaded car. If I had to just summarize, the value proposition of this car, it is exciting in features, it is very easy to drive, it is economical, and at the same time eco-friendly."

The government wants to grow this to 30% by 2030
