    Feb 17, 2015 (LBO) – Sri Lanka’s Power and Energy Ministry plans to set up an island-wide network of charging centres for electric cars involving private businesses and households, the ministry said in a media release.

    The ministry said that it plans to introduce a special tariff between the hours of 2200 and 0400 for charging cars.

    Existing fuel pumping stations, supermarkets and also households could be part of the network, the ministry said.

    Acceding to JB Securities analysis of data from Sri Lanka's motor vehicle registry data said 15 electric cars were registered in January 2015 up from 4 percent a year earlier.


    The statement also said that attention will also be paid to electrify railways.

    Electric cars may get popular in couple of years time. Charging points should be sorted out plus better looking cars than the Nissan leaf should come out. Me and two friends thought about electric cars 6 months ago but then got Toyota hybrids. I hear new leaf cars are looks better than previous egg shape so good for people looking for a reputed brand.

    Charging at home is not economical plus time at charging points should be minimal. If the second hand market is developed as well can think of an electric car in couple of years.

    The design is due to aerodynamic shape I suppose. So there can be modifications in future but it can lack milleage.

    I wanted a minimum invested + a fuel saver.. So had looked at an Electric.. One of my friend's said Nissan Leaf 2012 or 2012 can be bought ard 23 laks. Would be a good option if so.

    The later Leaf's can run over 150KM in a full charge but dont know the 2012/13 models would do over 100km.

    If anyone got one of these?

    විද්‍යුත් වාහන ගෙදරදී මෙන් සාමාන්‍ය ආකාරයට ආරෝපණය කර ගැනීම සඳහා විදුලිය ලබාගත හැකි ස්ථාන 100 ක් දිවයින පුරා පිහිටුවීමට වාසනා ට්‍රේඩිං සමාගම සූදානම් වේ.

    මේ පිළිබඳව අප සමග අදහස් දක්වමින් වාසනා ට්‍රේඩිං සමාගමේ අධ්‍යක්ෂ, ඉන්දික සම්පත් මෙරෙංචිගේ මහතා සඳහන් කළේ අවන්හල්, සුපිරි වෙළඳ සැල් වැනි ජනතාව කාලය ගත කරන ස්ථානවල මෙම සාමාන්‍ය ආරෝපණ ස්ථාන ආරම්භ කිරීමට කටයුතු කරන බවයි.

    “මේ සඳහා අපිට ස්ථාන 190 කින් අයදුම් පත් ලැබුණා. මෙයින් ස්ථාන 100 ක් අපි තෝරාගෙන තිබෙනවා. මුළු රටම ආවරණය වන පරිදි මෙම සාමාන්‍ය ආරෝපණ ස්ථාන අපි ළඟදීම ආරම්භ කරනවා.“

    යනුවෙන් හෙතෙම පැවසීය.

    මෙම ආරෝපණ ස්ථාන විද්‍යුත් වාහන ඉතාමත් වේගයෙන් ආරෝපණය කරගන්නා ස්ථාන නොවන අතර එවැනි ස්ථාන ආරම්භ කිරීමට ඉතා විශාල ආයෝජනයක් අවශ්‍ය වේ.

    “ලංකාවේ තවමත් විද්‍යුත් වාහන ලොකු ප්‍රමාණයක් නෑ. මේ නිසා, ආරම්භයක් විදිහට මෙවැනි සාමාන්‍ය ආරෝපණය කිරීමේ ස්ථාන ආරම්භ කිරීමත් ඉතාමත් වැදගත් දෙයක්. මෙවැනි ස්ථාන වලින් පැයක පමණ කාලයක් ආරෝපණය කරගත් පසුව කිලෝ මීටර් 30 ක් පමණ ධාවනය කළ හැකියි. ලංකාවේ විද්‍යුත් වාහන ප්‍රචලිත වීමට මෙයින් අනුබලයක් ලැබේවි.“

    යනුවෙන් මෙරෙංචිගේ මහතා වැඩිදුරටත් සඳහන් කළේය.

    සමාගම විසින් පිහිටුවන සාමාන්‍ය ආකාරයට විද්‍යුත් වාහන ආරෝපණය කිරීමේ මෙම ස්ථාන වලින් වෙනත් සමාගම් වලින් මිලදීගෙන තිබෙන වාහනද ආරෝපණය කළ හැකි බවත් තම සමාගමෙන් මිලදීගෙන තිබෙන වාහන ආරෝපණය කිරීමේදී ඒ සඳහා සහනයක් ලබාදෙන බවත් හෙතෙම කීය.

    ඉදිරියේදී විද්‍යුත් වාහන වේගයෙන් ආරෝපණය කිරීමේ ස්ථාන ආරම්භ කිරීමට රජයේ අවධානය මේ වනවිට යොමුව ඇත.

    There are many Electric cars in the market while only the Leaf is a bit well known. It is only a city car for daily commute which you can charge once in 3-4 days depending on your distance to commute. This you should be able to do it at home.

    For that price, it's probably worth it only for daily commute or short distance drives. Low maintenance is the other plus point.

    Charging centers will be useful when the cars with longer ranges come to the market. There are a few but are priced higher.

    Must ask a fully charged driver about a half charged car that will be the norm just like any other service done in Sri Lanka.

    Ultimately you will pay full price for half charged battery.

    last looked up in July 2015; may probably have changed with YEN rising up
    Nissan leaf 2013 2.8mil+ 2014 2.9+
    X>>G grades (But generally X is sufficient for SL; as the bump to G gives you nothing extra that is likely to be missed)

    Mileage
    Realtime average is 5-6km per KWH (but heavily dependent on driving style); Some people consistently clock 6+ in Colombo.
    I you were asking about the range, at max charge is around 150km in Colombo. Anything plus is a very brave/foolhardy soul.

    Note: If you are looking at the EV tree you might continue watering for a while longer as a more extended range(200km+) Leaf(2015/2016) is about to fall in a few months time. Grab that for a extended pleasurable experience.
    Incidentally the grapevine has it that, A*W are doing feasibility on the 2015/2016 leaf hoping to launch in early 2016 if acceptable with a price tag of 4.3mil.

    I'm looking below 3 million. Also some say that since G grade has solar panel it can help with powering up for a/c radio others etc like 12v. So it won't drain battery power while on the go. Is it true?

    False. It trickle charges the Auxillary (12V) battery which powers the dashboard electronics only. Not the traction battery. Not the AC. Though theoretically there might be an infinitesimal saving in not having the traction battery charge the 12V battery when needed the effect is almost negligible. It's simply "marketing fluff". Many G grade cars come without the rear solar panel.

    Members any idea on the following EV, hybrid and non hybrid vehicle cost and mileage as per SL driving conditions.

    1 - Used Hybrid with less on the meter will cost you around 4.4 million and likely to see a hike soon (speculations in the market is that there will be 20% tax to be imposed, that will jack up the prices more).
    2 - Give a update of mileage soon. Very Happy

    Nissan leaf 2013 and 2014 X and G grades - it's cost and mileage (using a/c during traffic times)

    1 - Cost around 3 to 3.3 M currently.

    Suzuki wagon R hybrid - cost and mileage

    1 - Cost around 2.7 M currently.

    Suzuki wagon R non hybrid auto - cost and mileage.

    Kith, do u think there will be a tax increase for EV's like Nissan Leaf too in the upcoming Budget?

    EVs are very unlikely.
