It offers a range of approximately 170 km in typical operating conditions (driver plus three passengers), a top speed of 60 kmph, and supports a payload of up to 330 kg.

Managing Director Vikas Singh noted that the ride demonstrates the role electric vehicles can play in supporting livelihoods and contributing to India’s push for cleaner transportation.
