The 'Humvee' is our latest prototype vehicle. We are currently importing the motors and controllers but are going to be working with Indian manufacturers in the near future. We are initially producing 15 of them to test out on our dirt roads. We will be fine tuning them and once that is done we will take it to the next level.

Battery Technology We have tested out various Indian batteries and have found some that we are happy with. We were unable to find a Lithium manufacturer in India and we are now waiting for our first batch of Lithium LIFEPO4 batteries. We will be offering these batteries through our website in the coming months as replacement packs for existing EV owners. As soon as we test them we will put the results up on the website.
