Electra EV was founded by Ratan Tata himself and the Pune-based electric vehicle startup develops electric powertrains, battery systems and other EV components for Tata Motors. Although there has been a huge push to faster adoption of EVs in recent times, it looks like many might want to retrofit electric powertrains in their old CE vehicles instead of going for new ones. This is especially true in Delhi-NCR, where the life of ICE cars has been reduced to 10 years for diesel and 15 years for petrol. Even Electra EV will soon release its electric car conversion kit that will enable many car users to switch from ICE to electric while retaining their current vehicle

Tata Nano Electric Price in India

While the official price list for this conversion kit will out only on the day of its launch, speculations are rife that this kit will cost roughly Rs 5 lakh. At this price point, it could be a bit costly to convert small cars like the Nano to EVs but it’s still a huge step in the right direction for quick adoption of electric vehicles.

It must be noted that earlier, the Nano-based hatchback from Jayem was supposed to become the cheapest four-seater electric car in the market. While the electric Nano would have sold as the Jayem Neo, Tata Motors was expected to launch its own version at a later stage. All of this, however, never actually happened with the entire project being called off.

Tata Nano Electric Specifications

Cosmetically, the Tata Nano Electric created by Electra EV looks similar to the regular Nano.For the custom-built Nano EV, Electra EV uses a 72V design.

The range of the Tigor Xpress T EV has been enhanced to 213 kilometres without any changes to the powertrain. Super polymer lithium-ion batteries now power the vehicle. The Tata Nano EV is predicted to have a range of 160 kilometres and a 0-60 kmph time of less than 10 seconds. Details of the motor and performance figures have not yet been shared. However, it must be noted that Electra EV offers a huge range of battery ranging from 48V to 750V. These battery packs have been tested as per AIS 048 standard and even certified by ARAI.These packs can operate in a wide range of temperatures ranging from sub-Zero to over 55 degree celsius. The battery packs from Electra EV are already being used in the Xpres-T EV, which is nothing but an EV based on the Tigor. It has been in use in the fleet market.
