- The given invention solves the problems associated with the growing greenhouse gases and electric mobility in Indian automobile market using design-thinking approach. It addresses the issue of air pollution, lack of charging infrastructure, limited range of electric vehicles, and high cost of travelling in IC engine vehicles. The problem statement of the project is selected through the process of design thinking. Data for the project is collected from the actual segment of people. The given invention displays the plug-in hybrid electric vehicle kit. The kit retrofits the conventional fuel engine vehicle into plug-in hybrid electric vehicle. As a result, the user can drive on electric mode and when the batteries are exhausted, the user can switch to fuel engine mode. Using the given technology, users can lower the tail pipe pollutants emitted from the vehicle. By using this technology, users can save 73.74% of cost per year.
