So far, the post has gathered 47K+ reactions and 700+ comments, people are urging the company to expand the production of Nano EV. In the comments, Shantanu appreciated the performance of the custom-built 72V Nano EV and wrote, “It glided more than it drove… good job”. They offer relevant and affordable EV powertrain solutions, systems and services to support OEMs, orchestrators and T-1 suppliers, and also work with global electric mobility providers to enable optimised EV solutions for Asian markets.Įlectra EV shared a picture in a post on LinkedIn in February 2022, which had Ratan Tata and his assistant Shantanu Naidu with the custom-made electric Nano. However, that changed in February 2022 when Electra EV presented their founder Ratan Tata with the Electric Nano, calling it the moment of truth for them and their creation.Įlectrodrive Powertrain Solutions Pvt Ltd or Electra EV is India’s EV powertrain solution company based in Pune, and Ratan Tata himself founded it in 2017.
Maybe that factored in the reasons for the EV not seeing the light of day back then. The petrol version of the most affordable car was not a success in the Indian market. The idea of electric Nano came to life back in 2018 and Tata had planned to introduce it to the Indian roads.
