Solar Innovation: Vayve Mobility to Launch Eva at Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025
26th December 2024: Vayve Mobility, a new age OEM (original equipment manufacturer) that has pioneered the concept of solar electric cars, in a landmark move, will showcase the much-awaited Eva, a compact electric car that will revolutionize the way India drives. The exclusive preview will happen at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo in New Delhi between January 17 and 22.
Building on its successful debut at Auto Expo 2023, where Eva garnered admiration from thousands of visitors, the new iteration of Eva promises to set a benchmark in compact, efficient and eco-friendly commuting. Designed to tackle the challenges of urban life—like traffic congestion, limited parking spaces and rising fuel costs—Eva is designed to redefine the urban commute experience.
With an impressive total range of 250 km per charge and 3000 km free on solar annually, Eva combines innovation and practicality. It’s High Voltage powertrain technology enables super-fast charging, providing an additional 50 km of range in just 5 minutes. Wide driver visibility, quick acceleration of 0 to 40 kmph in just 5 seconds and Top Speed of 70 kmph offers a dynamic driving experience, perfect for daily city commutes. Eva comes equipped with smart connectivity features, including seamless smartphone integration, vehicle diagnostics, remote monitoring and over-the-air (OTA) updates.
Eva’s operational cost is a game-changer. Compared to the average petrol car’s fuel cost of ₹5 per kilometre, Eva’s cost stands at just ₹0.5 per kilometre, thanks to its lightweight and high-efficiency engineering. This makes Eva not only environmentally sustainable but also a high value for money choice for urban families.
“Eva aims to establish a new category of city cars. After the overwhelming response at Auto Expo 2023, we’ve incorporated customer feedback and further innovation to deliver a car that combines sustainability, style and practicality,” said Nilesh Bajaj, Co-founder and CEO of Vayve Mobility.
He added, “Eva meets the needs of evolving modern consumers. With the inclusion of solar power and smart connectivity, Eva provides a futuristic yet accessible solution for urban mobility, making it an ideal second car for families.”
India’s urban mobility patterns underscore the relevance of Eva. With an average daily commute of less than 35 km and car occupancy below 1.5 passengers, Eva’s design is tailored to meet these needs. Unlike traditional automakers, Vayve Mobility has focused on bridging the innovation gaps in the small car segment, offering a product that is both aspirational and efficient.
