Pravaig Dynamics could be India’s own Tesla for electric vehicles
Pravaig Dynamics, the Bengaluru-based EV manufacturer has unveiled its latest creation, which is an EV that looks futuristic and promises a range of 500 kilometres on a single charge.
Bengaluru-based Pravaig Dynamic is the best hope that India has of going head to head with Elon Musk’s Tesla when it comes to the electric vehicle market. The Atmanirbhar Bharat clarion call by Narendra Modi was been shining a light on indigenous technology created by brilliant minds in India to provide everyday solutions without having to rely on foreign manufacturers.
Pravaig Dynamics has unveiled its first electronic vehicle that promises a range of up to 500 kilometres. The Tesla Model S promises a range of 402 miles per full charge which is 646 kilometres. The Indian EV, named Pravaig Extinction MK I, has an ironical name, takes a dig at the extinction of non-renewable fuel-powered cars that use petrol or diesel. Design-wise, it looks like a mixture of a sensible sedan in the front while the back looks like a beefy SUV with flared out bumpers.
The completely indigenously built in India electric vehicle is sure to step up the EV game in India and set up a market in the home country. The electric car is expected to be available for purchase in 2021. The range is one of the most astonishing features for the car yet. A 500-kilometres range is no joke for an EV with the Volkswagen ID.3 managing to scrape around 500 km range if you drive very carefully. Tesla’s Model S is the only big-name to have cracked the 500+ km range on a single full charge of the battery.
Of the current cars available in India, the Hyundai Kona comes with a factory promise of 452 kilometres range on a single charge. The MG ZS can go as much as 340 kilometres on a single charge with work ongoing to upgrade the batteries to reach the coveted 500-kilometre range. It seems like the Pravaig Extinction Mk I could be India’s best hope of taking on the Tesla range of EVs.
