The Indian automotive market is set for a revolutionary shift with the introduction of “Eva,” the country’s first solar-powered electric cruiser developed by Pune-based startup Vave Mobility. Designed specifically for city commuting, this compact car features advanced solar panels on its roof that can provide enough energy to travel up to 3,000 kilometers annually for free, purely using sunlight. Starting at an affordable price of just ₹3.25 lakh for the entry-level Nova model, it offers a range of up to 250 km on the top-tier Vega variant and can be fully charged at home in just four hours. Despite its small size, Eva comfortably seats two adults and one child and comes equipped with modern amenities like air conditioning, a panoramic sunroof, and a touchscreen infotainment system, making it an ideal, eco-friendly solution for navigating narrow urban streets and congested traffic.
