Mohanraj Ramasamy, Founder and CEO of Srivaru Motors, emphasised, “Tamil Nadu accounts for more than 40% of the country’s electric vehicle demand, giving us an edge in a rapidly expanding market. We are operating in a dramatic growth market. India’s motorcycle market achieved revenues exceeding $25.6 billion, with projections indicating growth to $36.1 billion by 2027. By 2030, it is expected that electric motorcycles will account for approximately 50% of the market share. A significant increase from the current 3% share of electric two-wheelers in India signifies a tremendous opportunity for growth.”
The PRANA 2.0 is an Engineering Marvel in Powertrain Safety and features remarkable performance, achieving a top speed of 123 km/h with an impressive range of 250 km. The bike is equipped with a battery pack consisting of high-energy long-life cells. It offers four driving modes, producing visibly different user ride experiences in terms of vehicle performance, torque, including a reverse mode for convenient parking assistance.
The company claimed that the ergonomic seating design and driving configuration ensure a comfortable and premium riding experience. Prana holds multiple granted patents and utilises the most efficient in-wheel motor featuring a detachable rim, enhancing serviceability and reducing costs. The integrated mobile application provides real-time tracking and diagnostic capabilities. Electric bikes establish a new benchmark in electric mobility, merging durability on the road with a smooth experience for users.
