Euler Motors has launched two models of Storm EV electric cargo vehicles designed for intercity and intracity usage. The Storm EV LongRange 200 (intercity) and the Storm EV T1250 (intracity) both come with a 1250 Kg payload capacity, marking the company’s foray into the 4W Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV) segment. The Storm EV LongRange 200 is priced at Rs 12.99 lakh, while the Storm EV T1250 is priced at Rs 8.99 lakh, both ex-showroom.
With the new launches, Euler Motors also introduced ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) for the first time in the LCV segment in India, along with 10 other segment-first features.
The Storm EV LongRange 200 – is the first vehicle in this segment designed for intercity use, with a range of 200 km to enable cargo mobility between cities. CCS fast charging makes it easy to access highway charging infrastructure, offering a 100 km range in 15 minutes of charging.
The Storm EV T1250, made for intracity has a range of 140 km, a body length of 8.2 feet, and a volumetric capacity of 220 and 260 Cft. The DC001 fast-charging protocol offers a 100 km range in 30 minutes of charging. It comes in two variants – to carry dense or regular loads. The armoured variant, for dense loads such as mortar, wood and heavy cylinders, sports a 4 mm armoured skateboard chassis.
With Storm EV, the company introduces ADAS in the LCV segment for the first time, offering NVA (Night Vision Assist), and front and reverse camera collision alert capabilities. NVA offers clear imaging of obstacles on the road even in pitch darkness – thereby allowing drivers to safely extend their driving time to complete important deliveries. The camera alert capabilities provide greater on-road safety by alerting to potential obstacles and traffic light alerts.
Developed with inputs from 4W commercial vehicle owners across India, the Storm EV T1250 gets 11 new features to the LCV segment, some even among ICE counterparts, all of which enable customers to maximise earnings, provide good TCO and ensure high safety.
“We are excited to enter the 4W LCV segment with EV models that will maximise customer earnings every day, and also allow them to extend their operations into the intercity segment – a sector hitherto lacking an EV product.”, said Saurav Kumar, Founder and CEO of Euler Motors.
He added, “Customers want to maximise earnings without paying a massive premium over ICE vehicles. Not only does Storm EV deliver price parity with its ICE counterparts – but also beats it – by offering capabilities and design that exceed performance, efficiency and safety benchmarks.”, he added.
