These upcoming models’ design details have been leaked before the official announcement, offering a glimpse into Ola’s latest venture in the three-wheeler electric market.
Leaked Design Details
The leaked information suggests that the production version of the e-rickshaw is likely to be named Raahi, which translates to “traveller” in Hindi. Both variants feature a minimalistic design language, prioritizing spaciousness and practicality. The front profile includes square headlights, a large windshield, and A-pillar-mounted ORVMs, enhancing safety and functionality. Moreover, adding doors for cabin coverage indicates a significant step towards improved safety measures. Notably, there is speculation about including air conditioning, a potential game-changer in the segment.
Goods Carrier Variant
In addition to the passenger variant, Ola Electric is also introducing a goods carrier version with a sizeable loading bay. This customizable feature aims to cater to the diverse needs of clients, further enhancing the versatility and utility of the three-wheelers.
Growth Potential in Electric Three-Wheeler Market
The electric autorickshaw market has witnessed significant growth in recent years, with over 5,80,000 units sold in 2023 alone, marking a notable 66 percent increase from the previous year. Three-wheelers constitute over 50 percent of total sales in this segment, highlighting the immense potential for expansion and market penetration.
Future Outlook
Ola Electric’s strategic initiatives extend beyond product launches, with plans to establish its gigafactory for vertical integration in battery manufacturing. Founder and CEO Bhavish Aggarwal has emphasized the firm’s intention to allocate a significant portion of IPO proceeds towards this strategic move. As Ola Electric prepares for its IPO and navigates the competitive landscape of the EV industry, the reception of Raahi will be closely monitored.
