At the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, Vayve Mobility unveiled the Eva, India’s pioneering solar-powered electric vehicle. This compact city car is designed to address the unique challenges of urban transportation in India, offering an eco-friendly and efficient solution for daily commutes.
The Eva’s compact dimensions make it well-suited for navigating congested city streets. Its sleek design not only enhances aesthetic appeal but also contributes to aerodynamic efficiency. The inclusion of a panoramic sunroof in certain variants allows occupants to enjoy natural light during their journeys.
The vehicle’s acceleration is modest, achieving 0-40 km/hr in about 5 seconds, which is sufficient for city driving conditions.
One of the standout features of the Eva is its optional solar roof, capable of providing up to 3000 km of free driving annually under optimal conditions. While this addition won’t eliminate the need for traditional charging, it offers a supplementary energy source that can be particularly beneficial in sunny climates.
Inside, the Eva is designed to comfortably accommodate two adults and one child, making it a practical choice for small families or individual users. The cabin is equipped with modern amenities such as climate control, a reverse camera, and support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, enhancing the overall driving experience.
Safety features include a monocoque chassis, a driver airbag, and a front crumple zone, providing essential protection for occupants. The vehicle also supports over-the-air (OTA) updates and app integration, ensuring that the system remains up-to-date with the latest features and improvements.
