Kerala is looking for investment in electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing from domestic and international players and attempting to transform the capital Thiruvananthapuram into an automotive technology hub.

Kerala industries minister P Rajeeve said, “In the EV sector sale, Kerala is number one. We have created an ecosystem and a mechanism for e-charging. Now, we are discussing with some companies to start their manufacturing units. Mahindra is coming next week for some discussions. Some other companies are also coming from outside the country.”
