Question 1

How much does the EV Retrofit course cost?

Accepted Answer

Our EV Retrofit course has 3 options: Online (₹50,000 for 6 months), Hybrid (₹70,000 for 5 months - most popular, includes 15 days hands-on lab where you convert 2 vehicles), and Full-Time Offline (₹90,000 for 4 months - convert 3 vehicles, best for starting business). All include STEM.ORG accredited certification, business setup support, vendor connections, and lifetime technical support. EMI options available starting at ₹16,667/month. Compared to the ₹2-5 lakh profit per car conversion, the course pays for itself with your first project.

Question 2

Do I need an engineering degree to learn EV retrofit?

Accepted Answer

No! This course is designed for mechanics, workshop owners, and automotive service professionals - no engineering degree needed. If you have experience servicing cars/bikes (engine work, electrical systems, basic fabrication), you can learn EV retrofit. The course focuses on practical hands-on skills rather than complex engineering theory. 60% of our students are experienced mechanics without degrees, and they run successful conversion businesses.

Question 3

How much can I earn from EV conversion business?

Accepted Answer

Car conversions: Selling price ₹8-15 lakhs, cost ₹5-10 lakhs, profit ₹2-5 lakhs per project. With 2-3 conversions per month, earn ₹4-15L monthly. Two-wheeler conversions: ₹1.2-2L selling price, ₹60K-1.2L cost, ₹40K-80K profit. Do 5-10 per month = ₹2-8L monthly. 3-wheeler conversions: ₹4-6L selling price, ₹3-4L cost, ₹1-2L profit per vehicle. Fleet orders give economies of scale. Initial setup cost: ₹3-5 lakhs (workshop tools, initial inventory). Our alumni average ₹1.5-3L monthly revenue after 6 months of business.

Question 4

Will the converted vehicles be legal and RTO approved?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We teach the complete ARAI retrofit approval process and RTO registration procedure. The course covers all legal requirements: vehicle inspection standards, required documentation, safety certifications, emission certificates (zero emission for EVs), and state-wise regulations. We provide step-by-step guidance on submitting ARAI applications and obtaining Certificate of Fitness. All conversions done using our methodology are road-legal and insurable. We also connect you with ARAI consultants if needed.

Question 5

What vehicles can be converted to electric?

Accepted Answer

Almost any vehicle can be converted! Best candidates: (1) Cars: Maruti 800, Alto, WagonR, Swift, Santro - lightweight, popular, good resale. (2) Two-wheelers: Any petrol bike/scooter. (3) 3-wheelers: Autos, goods carriers - huge demand for fleet electrification. (4) Commercial vehicles: Delivery vans, small trucks. Key factors: Vehicle weight (lighter is better), available space for batteries, usage pattern (city vs highway), and customer budget. We teach vehicle assessment and selection criteria to maximize range and performance.

Question 6

Where do I buy motors, batteries, and controllers?

Accepted Answer

We provide vendor connections for all components at wholesale rates: (1) Motors: BLDC motors ₹15K-50K (2-10 kW), Chinese suppliers (QS Motor, Golden Motor) or Indian (Kinetic, Praj). (2) Batteries: Li-ion cells from CATL, BYD, Samsung - ₹100-150/Ah. Battery packs ₹2-4 lakhs for cars. (3) Controllers: Kelly, Sabvoton, APT controllers ₹8K-25K. (4) BMS: Daly, JBD BMS ₹3K-15K. We teach you to evaluate quality, negotiate prices, and import from China vs buy locally. This vendor network alone saves ₹50K-1L per project.

Question 7

How long does it take to convert a vehicle?

Accepted Answer

Timeline varies by vehicle type and experience: (1) Two-wheeler: 2-3 days (experienced), 5-7 days (beginner). (2) Car: 15-30 days depending on complexity - ICE removal (2-3 days), motor installation (3-5 days), battery pack assembly & installation (5-10 days), electrical wiring & BMS (3-5 days), testing & commissioning (2-3 days). (3) 3-wheeler: 10-15 days. As you gain experience, speed improves significantly. Our alumni do car conversions in 10-12 days. Labor charges: ₹50K-1.5L depending on vehicle and customization.

Question 8

What is the range of converted electric vehicles?

Accepted Answer

Range depends on battery capacity and vehicle weight: (1) Two-wheelers: 50-100 km with 2-4 kWh battery. (2) Small cars (Maruti 800, Alto): 80-150 km with 15-25 kWh battery. (3) Mid-size cars: 100-200 km with 25-40 kWh battery. (4) 3-wheelers: 60-100 km with 8-12 kWh battery (sufficient for city use). Range can be customized based on customer budget - more battery = more range but higher cost. We teach battery sizing calculations to optimize range vs cost. Fast charging (0-80% in 1-2 hours) vs slow charging (6-8 hours) also covered.

Question 9

Can I get a job at EV service centers after this course?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Students interested in jobs can target EV service centers, charging networks, independent EV workshops, and related service roles. Salary benchmarks for EV/R&D-aligned roles are typically ₹4.5-6.5L/year at entry level and ₹8-12L/year for experienced systems roles, depending on location, employer, and prior experience. Roles include EV Service Technician, Battery Technician, and Diagnostics Specialist.

Question 10

What diagnostic tools will I learn to use?

Accepted Answer

You'll get hands-on training with professional EV diagnostic tools: (1) Multimeter - voltage, current, resistance measurements. (2) Clamp meter - high current measurements. (3) Oscilloscope - waveform analysis for motor controllers. (4) CAN bus scanner - read BMS fault codes, motor controller data. (5) Battery tester - internal resistance, capacity testing. (6) Insulation tester - high voltage safety checks. (7) Thermal camera - identify hot spots in battery/motor. We teach you to diagnose common issues: battery not charging, reduced range, BMS errors, motor overheating, controller faults. This diagnostic skill lets you offer service & repair, creating recurring revenue.

Question 11

Do you provide support after the course ends?

Accepted Answer

Yes, comprehensive post-course support: (1) Lifetime access to alumni community (WhatsApp group with 850+ members). (2) Technical support for your first 5 conversions (troubleshooting guidance). (3) Updated vendor contacts as markets evolve. (4) Business mentorship calls (quarterly). (5) Annual alumni meetup with workshops on new EV technologies. (6) Free access to updated course materials and videos. (7) Discount on advanced courses (battery refurbishment, motor repair). Many alumni continue to consult us even after 2-3 years. We succeed when you succeed, so ongoing support is in our interest.

Question 12

What is the initial investment needed to start EV retrofit business?

Accepted Answer

Initial setup cost: ₹3-5 lakhs. Breakdown: (1) Workshop space rental advance - ₹50K-1L (need 400-600 sq ft). (2) Basic tools & equipment - ₹1-1.5L (lifting equipment, hand tools, welding, battery assembly tools). (3) Diagnostic equipment - ₹50K-1L (multimeter, oscilloscope, CAN scanner). (4) First project inventory - ₹1-2L (components for first conversion - recovered from customer advance). (5) Registration, insurance, misc - ₹20-30K. You can start smaller with ₹2L if you already have workshop space. Many alumni started from home garage with minimal investment and scaled up as projects came in.
