New battery system provides enhanced rider experience, industry-leading safety features and extended battery life of more than 150,000 kilometers
Delaware, USA and Coimbatore, India, May 01, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- – SRIVARU Holding Ltd.
SRIVARU, one of the leading providers of premium electric motorcycles in India, the world’s largest and fastest-growing market for two-wheeled vehicles, has been in the market for over two years with its Prana
SRIVARU’s Prana 2.0 Intelligent Battery System
Mohanraj Ramasamy, CEO of SRIVARU, stated, “The stability of the ride experience in an electric motorcycle is defined by the design aspects, while the mobility itself is guided by the controller, powered by the intelligent battery. We believe the Prana 2.0 intelligent battery system is a state-of-the-art product that promises to deliver a superior riding experience. We are taking steps to go beyond meeting the standard battery requirements, which illustrates our commitment to the highest levels of consumer safety. The Prana 2.0 battery technology allows uniform thermal distribution, providing more area to dissipate the heat and enabling the battery to operate in higher temperatures. Additionally, the new system controls the moisture and vibration dampening between the cells and inside the pack. These enhancements are achieved, in part, through the use of advanced materials that have been successfully deployed within the sports performance vehicle category. Overall, we believe SRIVARU’s new intelligent battery system will bring stability and safety to an industry-leading level."
Mr. Ramasamy further noted, “ The Indian motorcycle market is forecast to exceed $36 billion by 2027. The EV segment is growing extremely fast, and is projected to reach 45-50% of the overall market by 2030. With the recent implementation of India’s new AIS-156 Phase 3 certification requirement, we believe it will become increasingly difficult for potential competitors to meet these standards, let alone match our level of safety and quality. Our focus on innovation and commitment to delivering superior products at an affordable price point, position SRIVARU to capture a significant share of the Indian two-wheel vehicle market. Moreover, we have developed a lean and capital-efficient business model, including highly scalable, low-cost manufacturing, assembly and distribution, to support high product margins. With the planned expansion of our operations and products in both India and around the world, we believe we are poised for rapid growth and success in the years ahead,” concluded Mr. Ramasamy.
