E3 Electric.Ai Unveils India's First AI-Powered Modular EVs: Futuristic Scooter & Crossover Moped
E3 Bengaluru based EV innovator has made a pioneering move this week, launching the first AI-powered modular platform EVs to ever come out of the country: a sleek futuristic family scooter and a tough crossover delivery moped. Both cars are constructed with the company 14-inch wheels modular chassis, intended to merge futuristic styling, real-world functionality and AI-based intelligence. This launch is revolutionary because of how fast-paced it has been: the gap between the concept and design-ready prototypes was only seven months. The vehicles are powered by the own brand platforms like VOLTCORE™ Modular Powertrain and TRIAXISFRAMETM parts are commonly shared among the vehicles since they share such parts as portable batteries, and chassis, among others, to maintain a low price, rapid development and simpler to service. Carrying AI-first capabilities, the EVs come with a new form of advanced mobility to daily commuters. Among the highlights are TRIPSENSETM AI diagnostics, which scan the condition of the vehicle in 10 seconds using a smartphone, Mobile-as-a-Cluster to give more than 70 smart capabilities of the vehicle including navigation, and charging point location, and VOLTPORTTM battery digital twin technology that boosts safety as well as doubles up as a power bank. Additional features are AI-based trip mapping, predictive service schedule, ErgoRide ergonomic seat, and RideMate™ kid and pet cradle and passenger friendly family convenience. E3 owns more than 13 patents in its own AI and EV technologyIncluding a groundbreaking patent on Trip Assurance Using AI. The pre-homologation of both EVs is successfully completed and both cars are in the process of certification to become available in Indian streets very soon, with low costs, safe and smart mobility that is made to fit in Bharat and beyond.
