At the default Indian urban commute of 50 km/day (≈1,500 km/month):
Over 5 years that's approximately ₹4.95 L saved in fuel alone — before counting maintenance and insurance savings.
Burning 1 litre of petrol releases about 9.1 kWh of usable energy — but a petrol engine only converts ~20-25% of that to actual motion. The rest is heat lost through the radiator and exhaust. EVs convert ~85-90% of stored battery energy into motion. So you're paying for 4× less energy waste with an EV. That's the real reason the Mercedes-Benz Mercedes-Benz EQS Limousine crushes petrol on per-km cost — not because electricity is cheap in India (it isn't particularly), but because EVs are simply more efficient.
