 "Mahindra launches all-electric sedan eVerito")
Mahindra Electric, the electric mobility division of the Mahindra Group, yesterday launched its eVerito - the all-electric, zero-emissions sedan. The eVerito would be available in key cities like New Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Pune, Kolkata, Chandigarh, Hyderabad, Jaipur, and Nagpur with immediate effect.
Pravin Shah, president and chief (automotive), Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd, said, “As the pioneer of electric vehicles and integrated mobility solutions in India, it has always been our endeavour to make electric vehicles more accessible and the eVerito is the first electric sedan in our portfolio. With issues like environmental degradation, pollution-related challenges, climate change and energy security, there has never been a better time to switch to electric vehicles.”
Shah added, “With the FAME scheme the Government has already set in motion a conducive environment and hence we can expect faster adoption of electric vehicles in the country. We also appreciate the local subsidy offered by the Delhi Government for electric cars and expect other states to follow it. Going forward we have laid out a clear roadmap for the electrification of our range of vehicles to reduce emission and build an eco-system for electric mobility in India, at par with its foreign counterparts.”
Launched by the centre government in April 2015, FAME India (Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Hybrid and Electric vehicles in India) scheme offers incentives on electric and hybrid vehicles of upto Rs 29,000 for bikes and Rs 1.38 lakh for cars.
According to Arvind Mathew, Chief Executive Officer, Mahindra Electric, the eVerito is an innovative combination of advancements in automotive, electronics and information technology, paired with minimal running costs and zero tailpipe emissions. “I am confident that India will make that paradigm shift in lifestyles - towards electric mobility solutions that are driven by progressive Government policies,” he added.
Powered by the latest electric drivetrain technology from Mahindra Electric, the direct drive single speed transmission eVerito can be charged at home as well as quick charged in 1 hour and 45 minutes through fast charging technology. On a full charge, the Mahindra eVerito can travel for up to 110 kms (based on vehicle loading) and can achieve a top speed of 86 kmph.
