Driven by concerns about air pollution, climate change, and the depletion of fossil fuels, the shift to electric vehicles (EVs) is a crucial step toward sustainable transportation. This study examines the hurdles to EV adoption and public perception, with a focus on Chennai. The study employs a structured survey to explore how EV adoption is influenced by factors such as cost, public awareness, and charging infrastructure. According to research, electric vehicles (EVs) have both financial and environmental advantages; however, widespread adoption is hindered by issues such as high upfront costs, a shortage of charging stations, and concerns over battery sustainability. The study emphasizes that accelerating EV adoption and promoting a cleaner, greener future require governmental changes, improved infrastructure, and increased public awareness.
