Genson Electric Vehicles has released a teaser for their first production model, primarily designed for urban use. The Gensol EV will be manufactured in India, promising impressive technology standards within its segment. The teaser video showcases several design aspects of the Gensol EV, which appears to have a very small footprint. In it, we catch a glimpse of the headlights and taillights, the small-diameter wheels, portions of the bodywork, and a top view that hints at the presence of a sunroof. Based on the reflections in the front view, it’s possible that the EV will ride on three wheels, although there’s a chance that it could be a four-wheeler with the rear ones positioned very closely together.
The video also gives us a glimpse of the
interior. Highlights include a free-standing infotainment touchscreen and the
good old rotating A/C controls on the center console. While the company didn’t
disclose the specifications of the battery pack or the fully electric
powertrain, they promise a range of over 200 km and a top speed of
80 km/h. Even more noteworthy, this small vehicle will come equipped
with an abundance of technology. According to the website, the city car will
feature AI tech, an ADAS suite, an automated parking system, and something
referred to as ‘autonomous navigation’.
The Gensol EV is set to make its debut in
March 2024 and is anticipated to be manufactured in the company’s ‘sustainable’
production facility in Chakan, India. According to the Times of India, the new
model is expected to be priced in the range of Rs 5-6 Lakh, which is equal to
around US$ 6,000-7,200, positioning it as the most affordable EV in the region
Gensol Electric Vehicles is a subsidiary
of Ahmedabad-based Gensol Engineering that also owns a ride-sharing company
called BluSmart Electric Mobility.
