India Gets Green Ideas For Cars

After basking in the glory of appreciation and excited apprehension, Nano, touted as the World’s cheapest car, makes way for green brand Oreva. This new e-car is a part of the rich Ajanta group legacy who have been giving India affordable electric scooters and bikes over the past so many years.
Plans are to roll out Oreva from the Ajanta plant in Gujarat. Though the mother company is careful not to divulge too many details, the national rep of the car did say that this green wonder would be able to cover 200-250 kilometers in a single charge.
Claiming to have no competition with Nano, the makers of Oreva call their move to manufacture the car an obvious one. They call it their future product. The R&D is on and looks like Oreva will have a completely India made battery.
The non-AC demo e-car, manufactured at the company’s Samakhiyali unit in Kutch district, where the Oreva e-bike is also made, is likely to be priced between Rs 85,000 and Rs 1,00,000. People are already excited about the great pricing which apparently is lesser than Nano’s rate. The economic benefits from Oreva are obvious but the car is also a sign of how energy preservation is becoming an agenda for more and more countries like India.
