Intermediate Public Transport (IPT) in Kerala consists of autorickshaws (diesel and petrol engine powered), which leads to higher emissions and vehicular pollution. In the above context, the state of Kerala plans to transform its IPT fleet by introducing E-autos in the city and restrict growth of diesel/petrol based autos. The State is unique because of its terrain and user base. E-autos now on production have only 7 degree gradeability. Therefore, it is essential to have a technically sound strategy to promote such vehicles. ArcGIS software and Digital Elevation Model (DEM) is used to study the terrain condition of each district. Gradient of road network of each is analyzed. The slope and the total length of road within each particular slope value are measured. Thereby the district-wise distribution of different gradients according to the total length of slope was determined. Based on which the gradeability for the E-autos to be designed has been arrived to have maximum accessibility.
