At the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, the Vayve Eva—hailed as India’s first solar car—will make another appearance. It debuted at the 2023 Auto Expo and might be ready for production this time. Pre-launch reservations for the Eva will open in January 2025, according to Vayve Mobility.
What Is The Vayve Eva?
It is a two-door, two-seater quadricycle with the following dimensions that is intended to meet the owner’s everyday demands inside city limits:
| Parameter | Vayve Eva |
| Length | 3060 mm |
| Width | 1150 mm (without ORVMs) |
| Height | 1590 mm |
| Wheelbase | 2200 mm |
Let’s use the MG Comet EV as a benchmark to illustrate just how tiny the Eva is. The Eva’s wheelbase is 190 mm longer than that of MG’s super tiny EV, which is 86 mm shorter. Nevertheless, the Eva lags by 355 mm and 50 mm, respectively, when breadth and height are taken into account.
Vayve Eva Specifications
The Eva includes a 14 kWh battery pack (IP68 certified) and a single 8.15 PS/40 Nm electric motor that powers the back wheels, according to Vayve. Its stated range is 250 km, and its maximum speed is 70 kmph. The primary selling point, however, is that the Eva can be charged using solar power, adding 3,000 kilometers to its annual range. It implies that you can increase your range by up to 10 km per day, which could be useful when your battery is low. The cost of operating the Eva is Rs 0.5 per km.
The Eva can be charged up using a 15A AC socket that takes 4 hours to power up to 80 percent. It takes about forty-five minutes to do the same using a DC fast charger. It takes only five minutes to fast-charge, adding 50 kilometers to its range.
Vayve Eva Features
Along with other creature pleasures, the all-electric quadricycle has dual-digital screens (the infotainment system can handle Apple CarPlay and Android Auto). It also has a fixed glass roof and a 6-way motorized driver seat. Seatbelts for both passengers and a driver airbag are included for safety.
Vayve Eva Launch
It is anticipated that the Vayve Eva will be introduced soon after its January 2025 auto show demonstration. It is comparable in size to the now-canceled Mahindra E2O and Bajaj Qute. The MG Comet EV would be Eva’s closest competitor at introduction.
